What Colour Should You Sleep In This Chinese New Year?

Bringing luck, colour, and comfort into the bedroom

Chinese New Year invites us to reset, refresh, and begin again. While lucky colours often show up in what we wear or how we decorate, they can also shape the spaces where we slow down and rest. This season, we’re taking a softer approach, using zodiac-inspired colours to bring warmth, comfort, and a sense of calm into the bedroom, starting with the sheets you sleep on.

For signs drawn to calmer energy, cooler and neutral tones create a bedroom that feels steady and easy to rest in. Soft blues and greys suit the Rat, Tiger, Dragon, and Pig, seen in collections like Pearson, Raine, and Cara. Pearson’s smooth, gently cooling TENCEL™ fibres offer a refined, sink-in feel, while Raine’s solid natural colours bring a clean, modern calm. Cara adds subtle pattern through its dual designs, giving the bed a quiet decorative lift without overwhelming the space.

For signs that lean warmer, earthy greens and soft, comforting tones help create a space that feels welcoming and relaxed. Grounding greens suit the Ox, Horse, and Dog through Olav and Ralphson, where delicate dobby textures add depth and softness. Warmer shades like pinks, browns, and sunny yellows bring a cosy touch for the Rabbit, Goat, Rooster, and Snake with Aerynn and Brighton. With breathable TENCEL™ fibres and easy-to-refresh designs, these collections wrap the bed in comfort as the season unfolds.
