* Discover NakedLab’s guide for the colours that help you sleep in serenity and style*
A good night’s sleep isn’t just about what’s on your bed, it’s also about what surrounds it. From lighting to texture to scent, your sleep environment holds the power to restore your body and mind. But there’s one element often overlooked in the bedroom reset: colour.
According to Psychiatry Advisor, colour psychology experts highlight the powerful role colour plays in shaping our physical and emotional states, even down to subtle undertones. When it comes to rest, the right shades can soothe the mind, reduce stress, and help us drift off more deeply. In fact, research from the University of Richmond (Han Gao, 2016) confirms that “the relationship between the darkness of room colours and sleep quality is fully mediated by emotional experiences of serenity, contentment, and peacefulness.”
And it doesn’t stop there. Scientific findings show that blue hues measurably reduce heart rate and blood pressure, triggering the body’s natural relaxation response. Meanwhile, muted greens and sandy neutrals promote grounding and mental clarity, exactly what the nervous system needs before lights out.
NakedLab, the premium bamboosilk bedding and wellness brand, understood this relationship; therefore, it gives colour a central role in curating sleep spaces. Its BambooSilk collection is crafted not only for softness and sustainability but also to align with the emotional energy of your bedroom. Inspired by dreamy destinations around the world, these hues help build a sleep sanctuary that matches your mood.
Here are five mood-enhancing shades, each backed by sleep science and available in NakedLab’s collection:
Sage Green: The Calm Rejuvenator
Emotion: Tranquility, balance, mindfulness
