Serene Style

Pillows covered in simple botanical patterns, a trio of artwork dedicated to nature, and exposed wood beams give this room the look of a contemporary mountain lodge.

Big Look, Small Space
SOURCE: Robbie Caponetto/Cottage Living
Rich colors and contrasting hard and soft textures add style to this guest room converted from a garage. The stark white walls also help this small space appear brighter and larger.
Tip: Fill a basket with towels and soaps (or travel-sized items) so that guests feel pampered when they're ready to shower.
Nautical Look

The nautical theme in this room is mixed with natural color tones. Natural-fiber linens and antique furniture add character to the space. The slanted ceilings lend a cozy feel.
Tip: Bring a daybed into a small space to instantly transform it from a sitting room into a makeshift guest room.
Cottage Charm

This iron bed is softened with layers of rich, contrasting fabric covers and pillows, which makes for a relaxing retreat for guests. Coat hooks mounted on the wall add cottage style (and extra hanging space) to the room.

Bright Bursts

Bunk beds make good use of a smaller bedroom. Having the beds custom-crafted allowed for desks to be put on one side of the partition. All of the beds are color-coordinated to give the room a cohesive look.
Tip: Bunk beds are the perfect addition to a guest room or vacation home where children will visit.
Clean and Simple

The lavender and gold hues of the quilted silk bedding in this bedroom complement the taupe walls, crisply outlined with white baseboards and crown molding. The ladderlike display stand reinforces the open, uncluttered look.
Tip: Install inexpensive window treatments in the guest room to soften harsh morning light.
Tucked Away

A cane daybed tucked into a window niche in this guest room offers guests a sunny spot to read and relax.
