Feng Shui Bedroom Retreat in a New York Bachelor Loft | Marie Burgos Design
In the New York Bachelor Loft, the guest bedroom was designed as a bedroom retreat—a space that supports rest, balance, and a sense of being genuinely welcomed. Through a Feng Shui–informed approach, the goal was not only visual harmony, but energetic comfort.
Feng Shui teaches that a guest bedroom should feel grounding and calm, offering a temporary sanctuary that encourages deep rest. In this space, rich earth tones were intentionally selected to promote stability and warmth, helping guests feel settled the moment they arrive. Layered textures introduce softness and depth, creating a tactile experience that supports relaxation and emotional ease.

Lighting plays a critical role in Feng Shui. Here, soft, ambient illumination was used to avoid harsh contrasts, allowing the energy of the room to flow gently and uninterrupted. This approach supports yin energy—essential for rest and restoration—while maintaining an elevated, tailored aesthetic consistent with the bachelor loft’s overall design.

Furniture placement and material selection were carefully considered to create a sense of openness without emptiness. Clear pathways, balanced proportions, and intentional negative space help the room feel breathable and inviting, reinforcing a feeling of calm rather than visual noise.
