The closest bedroom sets I’ve found to the New England style I like
House-in uses twigs in their room styling *cringe cringe*, and you know what - I can forgive them for that because their bedroom set design is
the closest I’ve found to the New England style that I love.
Take the bed with the drawers (left) - now imagine it with the drawers from the armoir (below) instead (I’m certain they make it all on order so these types of changes wouldn’t be difficult). You could keep the drawers white or a contrasting color. Regardless I would change the handles. I’m sick of those handles - they are everywhere.
The wood slat design of this bedroom set is adorable. Imagine the bed properly ‘dressed’ (do the people at House-in not use pillows?) and you’ve got yourself a lovely retreat.
I’m not so nuts about this bedroom, but I know other people who would be, so here it is. One thing that leaves me perplexed is the low table with the tchochkes on it. What is the purpose of that?

my first thought was that it’s a tv table a la israeli/european tv tables meant for a living room. but with a tv placed that low in a bedroom, you’d never be able to see it while lying in bed. so i don’t know. plus, i would imagine that such a low table out of sight range in a potentiallyl dark bedroom could be a real tripping hazard. and why introduce superfluous furniture into the typically supersmall israeli bedroom anyway? and why not just replace the said superfluous table with necessary pillows
?

I was totally thinking about the tripping thing. I could see myself doing a faceplant on my way to check on the kids in the middle of the night. The less on the floor the better!
