From ancient caves to ornate boudoirs, humans have always sought out safe, comforting spaces for rest—shelters that protect us from the elements, light, noise, and the vulnerabilities of sleep. The bedroom, a sanctuary for dreams, intimacy, and renewal, has a rich and fascinating history. Beautiful Bedrooms Around the World explores this history through a stunning visual journey, showcasing hundreds of extraordinary bedrooms from across the globe—New York to New Delhi, Paris to Bangkok, the Pacific islands to Africa’s remote interiors.
Captured by acclaimed photographer and passionate traveler Deidi von Schaewen, each bedroom reflects the spirit of its place and the personality of its inhabitants. In the French Riviera, Pierre Cardin’s 1960s-era retreat features a round bed and curved, futuristic walls. In rural Gujarat, India, nomads unroll vibrant patchwork blankets on earthen floors. In Shikoku, Japan, paper lanterns and sliding screens transform a room into a peaceful blend of bedroom and meditation space.
Whether minimalist or lavish, traditional or contemporary, these bedrooms offer a glimpse into how people live—and dream—across cultures. This beautifully curated collection is a celebration of personal style and a cross-cultural exploration of the most intimate room in the home.
