At the top of our list is this luxe white bedroom that exudes modern elegance with a light color theme and lavish accents.

The TV wall decor is definitely the star of the show with an arched niche filled by a white brick background. 

You don’t have to drown your bedroom in bricks to incorporate the material into your space, you can also use it sparingly to add definition to just one area.

On the other hand, this design uses a different style of brick to create this lovely warm wall.

If you want to implement a more organic and charming feel in your bedroom, go for the classic burnt clay bricks to get all that warmth and character.

To complement the homey aesthetic, get light wooden accents and repurpose wooden crates for storage too!

Don’t just stop at the walls, consider the ceilings as well. This eccentric bedroom pairs a majestic wooden ceiling with its raw brick wall design.

You can easily find wooden material that can match the colors of your exposed brick wall and by using them in your bedroom, you get an overall cohesive look.

I love how lively this room is with all the colors and plants present. They surely add personality to the space.

Here, we present a delicate design to balance the strong impact most brick walls bring into the room. It uses tons of soft textures and dainty features to make an elegant and quaint aesthetic.

Aside from the heaps of cloth on the bed, each element also comes in muted and relaxing colors to come up with a calming space.

You can also get a paper lantern for a light fixture or just get sheer curtains so you can incorporate more gentle additions to the interior.

Beds With Ottomans

Well isn’t this such a delightful design? The preppy bedroom feels young and vibrant with its rich warm colors and classic exposed brick wall.

The vivid orange ottoman is a functional eye-catching piece that complements the aesthetic greatly.

The flowers embellish the room impeccably and make it more aesthetically pleasing. Consider hanging up plants or getting trailing indoor plants to add to the romantic design.

If you have the budget, you can emulate this luxurious contemporary bedroom design. It maintains a sleek neutral color scheme and a vibrant brick wall that extends to the balcony.

The high-quality leather ottoman and the warm brick wall tie in the brown accents together.

In an already big room, the glass doors make everything look bigger and brighter!

Here’s an interesting one. It’s the first brick wall on our list in an unconventional pattern: a herringbone design.

Don’t be afraid to play around with how you place your bricks. Simply changing up the patterns can make a significant improvement to the overall aesthetic.

Aside from the color and the material of the ottoman, also think about its shape, design, and ability to function as storage!

If you’re not careful, brick walls can overwhelm your interior and make it appear more drab. Luckily, this design has two magnificent skylights to make sure the space is bright and cheerful.

Skylights are a great design choice for corner bedrooms and those with slanted ceilings. Apart from their interesting look, they let in light to make rooms look more spacious.

To make this a more ambient design, hang up some fairy lights for a magical feel when it gets dark.

Brown Brick Walls

In this modern space, we can see several artworks displayed against a brown brick wall.

Having brown brick walls is a great way of making a bedroom that is also an office, a cozier space because of its comforting aesthetic.

I suggest adding more natural elements to this design like a small tree or multiple indoor plants to give it a touch of life.

We’re toning down the brown a bit and designating it to the brick accent wall behind the bed with this design.

This design has an old-timey feel with its elements and antique chandelier.

I recommend getting linens in deep, rich, and warm brown hues to have them match the rest of the interior better. The same goes for the curtains, so they’ll be more contrast and definition to the space.

Take a look at this minimalist chic bedroom with light wooden accents. It features a breathtakingly white exposed brick wall and understated artwork.

This design is best suited for those who want a clean and simple aesthetic that’s also interesting. 

I think you can get away with adding a few pops of color to this aesthetic by putting more vibrant green plants and flowers.

In another stunningly white bedroom, we see a more sophisticated design with a white rattan bed and subtle neutral accents.

The white brick wall blends in nicely while also adding texture to the interior. 

I suggest getting a more vibrant carpet with intricate patterns to incorporate more character and color into this bedroom. You can also mount your favorite pictures and artwork for more of a personal touch.

This small and sleek bedroom also boasts a white brick wall behind the bed. This time, the color scheme sticks to more black, white, and gray neutrals.

The design is great for those who want a low-maintenance aesthetic that is quite easy to pull off.

Incorporate more dark wood storage to complete the look or optimize the bed to have storage underneath to keep this room neat.

White Track Lights

In another lovely bedroom, the wall with the windows is gracefully defined with raw brick materials.

Another notable aspect of this space is that it uses a light fixture that isn’t commonly used in bedrooms but can definitely enhance your interior.

Track lights are an affordable and easy way of adding extra oomph to your place and they offer a unique way of brightening things up.

Dark Brick Walls

Check out this urban industrial design. It executes the aesthetic just by using a darker and more soothing color scheme, as well as sleeker elements.

If bright whites aren’t your thing and you’d prefer a duskier ambiance, consider darker brick designs and partner them with streamlined furniture and decor.

A darker bedframe will also work better in this room. It’ll have greater contrast and it will define the bed area nicely.

For some more color, get a vibrant red wall too! Most brick walls are surrounded by neutrals, so this design will definitely make your entire bedroom stand out.

Don’t worry about the red being too much, the texture and finish of the bricks can easily even out the aesthetic.

Also, it doesn’t have to be red. You can choose any warm vibrant color to have as an accent wall to your bedroom.

How about this amazing bedroom design with a bed that has golden accents to spruce things up a bit?

The rest of the interior showcases elegant patterns and soft textures to add style to the grand aesthetic.

An antique chandelier would look so good in this room. Consider getting one that’s also black with golden accents to match the bed.

Distressed Brick Wall

You can also make the brick wall itself display more character with a distressed design like this. It gives your room a lived-in and retro feel.

It also has an industrial touch to it, making it perfect for spicing up urban interiors.

Do get carpets with bright dazzling designs to add more warmth and charm to the room. A wooden chest or trunk would also look better at the end of the bed and provide more storage.

This suburban bedroom has a little quirk added to its burnt brick walls. There are black bricks scattered across the design.

It adds variation to your walls and doesn’t make them look too uniform or monotonous.

To make it more fun, why not pop in a few colored ones instead or simply paint over some random bricks for a similar effect?

Brown Beds

Let’s head towards an earthier theme with a luscious brown motif such as this design here.

It has a nice beige bed, earth-toned linens and pillowcases, and a gorgeous brick wall to tie it all together.

Browns would look great with bricks that are more terracotta. I highly suggest decorating the interior with houseplants too to really complete the earthier vibe.

Finally, we have this comfy brown bed sitting snuggly by the window in a bedroom with a massive brick wall and a large mirror.

A lot of the textures come from your blankets, linens, and even patterns. 

There’s a cool light fixture and big windows to make sure this room will always be well-lit. As a bonus, having a large mirror contributes to the spacious feeling of this design.
