How To Curate

Here's the boyshostel suggestion on how to curate a rich-dad-bedroom:
What Defines a Rich-Dad-Bedroom?
​
Firstly, let's begin with what a rich dad bedroom is not,
​
-
It’s not hypebeast (no sneakers on display, no cartoonish collectibles dominating).
-
It’s not minimalist (too bare, too “start-up founder” energy).
-
It’s not maximalist (no clutter, no loud patterns).
Unlike trendy or minimalist spaces, a Rich-Dad Bedroom always has these non-negotiable markers:
​​
1: Commanding Centerpiece Bed
-
Large, weighty frame (wood, leather, or upholstered in deep tones).
-
Presence over sleekness — it should feel like the room belongs to it.

2: Timeless Materials, Not Trends
-
Woods (mahogany, walnut, oak), marbles, leathers, heavy drapery
-
No plastic, acrylic, or lightweight “fast furniture.”

3: Heritage Objects
-
Art, collectibles, or heirloom-quality décor (a watch case, sculpture, rare book stack).
-
Items that whisper wealth without needing logos.

4: Muted Power Palette
-
Deep neutrals, navy, forest green, burgundy, or beige + gold accents.
-
No neon, no excessive whites — it’s authority, not minimalism.

5: Subtle Opulence
-
A rich-dad bedroom is never loud. It’s about understated dominance — the quiet kind of wealth that doesn’t need to prove itself.
In short: A Rich-Dad Bedroom = A commanding bed + timeless, weighty materials + heritage objects, all wrapped in muted power colors. If those three aren’t present, it doesn’t qualify.
