How to get the look, step by step
- 1Photograph your bedroom in daylight with the widest view you can frame — the RivAI app needs the whole space to work with.
- 2Set the base: Haussmann White (#F6F3EC) for walls, ceilings and moldings.
- 3Choose a rug that extends 45-60 cm beyond the bed on both sides so your feet land on softness.
- 4Bring in herringbone oak parquet and carrara marble mantels and tables — the two signature materials of Parisian design.
- 5Add one statement piece: modern sofa in cream linen or gray velvet.
- 6Finish with soft black (#1F1D1B) accents in textiles or decor, keeping them under 10% of the visual field.
Key materials
- Herringbone oak parquet
- Carrara marble mantels and tables
- Plaster ceiling moldings and medallions
- Gilded wood mirror frames
- Washed linen and velvet upholstery
Furniture to look for
- Modern sofa in cream linen or gray velvet
- Vintage gilded mirror leaned over the mantel
- Marble fireplace as the room anchor
- Bistro chair or mid-century accent chair
- Crystal chandelier on a ceiling medallion
Mistakes to avoid
- Pushing the bed into a corner to save space, which makes it hard to make and unbalanced to look at.
- Relying on a single overhead light with no bedside lighting for reading or winding down.
- Choosing a rug that stops at the bed edges, so it looks like a bathmat instead of an anchor.
Budget tips
- Swap the bedding set first - new duvet cover and pillows change the entire room for the cost of one dinner out.
- Paint only the wall behind the bed as an accent; one wall uses about a quarter of the paint of the full room.
- Buy second-hand solid wood dressers and refinish them instead of buying flat-pack new.
