This trend is all about vivid colours, clashing patterns, maximalism and pure happiness.

Stylist tip
Vibrant tones, such as yellow, red and orange, feel energetic and passionate. Mixing and matching this with checked and floral patterns on the bed, alongside a mural element, walks the fine line between fun and sophisticated.
Stylist tip
Although dopamine decor is very much focused on bold, bright colors, doesn’t mean these spaces can’t be soft and gentle too. Greens create a peaceful, relaxed setting and can help a space to feel grounding, ideal for
a guest bedroom space.
