All White
Dreamy whites are a classic decorating scheme for bedrooms. You can add a pop of colour with decorative cushions, or choose neutral tones with different textures to add interest.

Patterns
Paisley and Damask are great gender neutral patterns to use on bed linen.
The Indira duvet set by Wallace Cotton is a great mix of masculine and feminine with it’s navy blue damask design.
Likewise, the Cohen quilt cover from Sage & Clare combines both paisley and stripes in cornflower blue for a gender neutral pattern.
And if you still can’t find a compromise, maybe just settle for these His and Hers pillowcases from The Gilded Pear.
