How to Style a Cozy Gothic Bedroom Inspired by Alice in Borderland
If you’re captivated by the dark, surreal world of Alice in Borderland and want to bring that energy into your space, a cozy gothic bedroom is the perfect way to blend moody elegance with comfort. The gothic style is all about balancing shadows, softness and mysterious atmospheres with warm, personal touches. Here’s how you can create a bedroom that feels like it could exist right within Arisu’s haunting yet beautiful Tokyo.
Choose a Dark, Moody Color Palette
The gothic aesthetic thrives on depth, darkness, and balance — a perfect blend of drama and comfort.
Begin with gothic base tones like charcoal, black, or deep plum for your bedding.
Soften the look with muted pillow shades like gray, cream, or dusty rose.
Mix dark elegance with cozy accents to keep the space inviting, not overpowering.
The key to creating a true gothic room is making sure your room feels dramatic, but still cozy enough to want to curl up in every night. Shop the Ever Lasting dark shades collection to find the perfect gothic, moody color palette for you.
Layer different textures like velvet, satin, and faux fur to enhance the cozy gothic feel.
Add dim, warm lighting through candles or amber lamps to create an intimate atmosphere.
Incorporate gothic-inspired décor like ornate mirrors, dark florals, or antique accents for dramatic charm.

Layer Textures for a Lived-In Look
In Alice in Borderland, the city feels abandoned yet layered with history. This creates a great source of inspiration for a cozy gothic room. Recreate this with rich, tactile textures in your room. Look for throws, pillows and blankets that bring depth and warmth to your gothic space. Browsing the Ever Lasting blanket & throw collection is a great way to start building a rich and atmospheric space.
