Art Deco Glamour Meets Modern Function With These Replacement Bedroom Doors

In 1925, the International Exhibition of Modern Decorative and Industrial Arts ran for seven months in the beautiful city of Paris. This exhibition is widely credited with encouraging us towards incorporating more decorative elements into our homes, which laid the foundations for the explosion of Art Deco glamour seen throughout the 1920s and 1930s. 

While 100 years have passed, the Art Deco movement continues to influence the design sphere because its core elements and ideas have an enduring appeal. Today, Art Deco style is synonymous with luxurious materials including velvet, marble and gold, geometric patterns, and rich colours including ruby reds, emerald greens and sapphire blues. 

If you want to infuse your master bedroom with a touch of Art Deco luxury and glamour, here are a few design tips to consider.

What exactly is Art Deco glamour?

The Art Deco style has a look and feel that is instantly recognisable, which is why it remains as popular and influential today as it was a century ago. The bold colour palette is one of the first things that sets Art Deco glamour apart from other styles, as it centres rich jewel tones and metallic accents for a touch of extra opulence. 

Geometric shapes and patterns also feature heavily in Art Deco inspired spaces, which can be seen in everything from standalone pieces of furniture, wallpaper, lighting and soft furnishings. 

Now that we’ve established what Art Deco is alongside some of its defining features, let’s take a closer look at some of the specific details to look out for when choosing bedroom doors to complete your Art Deco bedroom.

Add depth with decorative panelling

Replacement bedroom doors with beautiful panelled detailing can bring another layer of depth and detail to an Art Deco inspired room. Our Bella Aldridge doors feature flat panels and clean lines that offer a simple yet eye-catching geometric pattern. As part of our Bella range, our Aldridge doors come in a variety of rich jewel tones which can be accessorised with gleaming handles to complete the look.

Pro Tip: If you’re looking for panelled doors with slightly less detail, perhaps for a smaller space, our Bella Richmond doors are an ideal option. They feature a central panel and clean lines, with delicately curved edges for a softer look and feel.

Select a luxurious finish for optimal opulence

The colour and finish you select for your replacement bedroom doors will have a huge influence on your design. If you want to maximise the sense of space in your bedroom without compromising on the richness of your colour palette, choosing doors with a gloss finish can help to bounce light around the room. 

Alternatively, if you’re incorporating a lot of reflective accessories and luxuriously textured materials, a matt finish may provide the contrast needed to ensure each element has its moment in the spotlight.

Our Zurfiz doors with colour matched edges come in a wide variety of different finishes that will suit an Art Deco bedroom. Some of our favourites include Ultragloss Copperleaf and Supermatt Croma Blue, both of which can make a style statement in their own unique way.

Similarly, our Valore slab doors also have a number of finishes that are perfectly suited to an Art Deco bedroom, including Black Mustang Nero, Galvano Bronze, and Tigerwood Nero. Each of these finishes has a rich colour and a beautiful texture, which can add an extra layer of luxury.

Choose gleaming metallic accessories to complete the look 

Finishings and accessories play a key role in Art Deco inspired spaces, with no detail too small to make a statement. Here at Happy Doors we have a selection of accessories to complement your replacement bedroom doors that will help you to achieve a final result that looks professional, put-together and oh so chic. 

While brass was a go-to material during the Art Deco era, gleaming gold and shiny chrome accessories can also make a stylish impression on your bedroom. Choose a metallic tone that you love and pepper it throughout your bedroom to establish a sense of stylish cohesion.

Pro Tip: Many of our knobs and handles come in a gleaming chrome finish, including our angular flat bar handle, which has crisp, clean lines that suit the Art Deco style.
