How to choose a color for the room

How to choose a color for the room? When creating a new interior, it will most likely want to drastically change the color of the wall, Paul and ceiling, make color accents. Make everything just as beautiful as in some journal for the design of the premises.
Regardless of which color in the interior is considered a favorite during the repair period, first of all, one must take into account their own preferences of the color scheme. Fashion passes, and the taste remains. In addition, to create the design of the room interesting and correct in terms of color combinations, form of room, its size and illumination, you need to consider some nuances.

Decide on the color of the room you will be helped by three main points of reference.:

1. What color should be the wall, solves the owner of the future room. Children, for example, choose warm, "funny" shades. If it is a living room, then the color is chosen neutral or taking into account the size of the room, its illumination.

2. The color of the room should be set aside in accordance with the future interior style.

For instance:
** It seems only in gentle pastel, very bright colors.
** Style - Natural shades of wood and stone.
** "Baroque" -natted burgundy, gold, blue, etc.

3. The subject that will be the center of attention in the room can be fundamental when choosing color paint for walls (floor or ceiling). For example, you have conceived to create a design around an ancient mirror (portrait or picture) framed in a dark green frame. Accordingly, all other colors will be repeated (different shades of the same color) in the design of the room.

How to choose color paint color

Distribution of color indoors:

60-70% is the main color;
20-30% - additional, second color;
10% - Color accents.

Basic painting (basic) is done on the walls. And it is this color that we will observe constantly. The most common recommendation is to choose neutral shades, or even white.

In this option, the walls seem to reflect everything else in the room: carpets, furniture, interior accessories. On neutral
light background of walls update the interior is much simpler: enough to change the color of the curtains, capes on the furniture, hang a new picture, change the lampshade on the lamp or make a new tablecloth.

When choosing the primary color, it is necessary to take into account the final result: a visual increase or decrease in the height and width of the room.

Pay attention to the Circle of Thten. It contains combinations of the most harmonious combination of colors. Ihogennes (1888-1967) - the Swiss artist and teacher developed the schemes for which you can mostly choose the color for interior design.

What color to choose for floors and ceiling in a small room

Since in large rooms it is easier to create an interior, then consider how with the help of paint you can "expand" the walls in a small room.

** To visually expand the space, choose the shades of sandy, beige and yellow colors as the basic coating.

** If you want to visually lengthen the room, then choose cold and bright shades of blue, green, gray-blue colors.

Paul in a small room Also should be light, in one color scheme with walls, but darker. If the floor and the ceiling make one (very light) color, then the effect of the absence of the lower plane will be the effect, everything is alive, which is also not very good.
** As if absorbs a part of the space, and this can not be allowed in a small room.

What color should the door be?

Previously, the color of the doors was combined with the color of the floor. Currently, this is considered not the most successful option. The door in the interior of the room should impress one whole with the wall. In this regard, you need to choose "nearby" shades to basic paint.

We choose the color of the walls taking into account the illumination of the room.

Basic room color It is necessary to choose with natural and artificial lighting. For example, violet color with artificial lighting can acquire shades of black.

In rooms with large windows, which beyond the south side, the walls in cold shades of blue, gray, purple will be better. If the main color in this case, select warm shades, in combination with bright solar lighting, a sense of increasing body temperature may occur.

If windows overlook the northern side of the house you need to choose warm colors, thanks to which a more comfortable atmosphere is created.

Additional colors in the interior of the room

As written above, they occupy 20-30%.

Basically, it will be colors from the same palette as the main color, but darker or bright. Thanks to the additional color, even the most unparalleled interior acquires its unique uniqueness.

Additional color is the color of furniture, curtains, carpets, pillows.

If you are bored live in one color, varying shades, create a contrast interior. From the experience of designers, the combination of contrasting tones looks exclusively advantageous from the point of view of aesthetic perception, but constantly in such a room is very difficult - the overall fatigue comes quickly.

Another important point: the interior in contrast paints is not suitable for small rooms. Therefore, the main and additional colors in a small room "dilute" with color stains.

How to apply a color spot in the interior

The role of color spots perform small items that attract the look.
It can be:

Picture or;
flower pots or vases for flowers;
curtains for curtains;
photo frames and even books in bright covers;
statuettes, etc. Interior decorations.

Color spots should be at least three. This is meant - three (or more) subject in one color.

For example: green pillow on the sofa, a large curly flower on the wall, a photo (picture or mirror) in a green frame, green patterns on the curtains or green napkin on the table. This entire ensemble will create a color accent.

** If you make three color spots, it will already look like random, scattered objects (green pillow, red pot for flower, yellow curtains ....).

Furniture color in the interior.

And finally, a little about the color of furniture. Bright upholstery on the sofa or armchair, in the contrast of the main color on the walls, it will be relevant only in a large room. Usually, such furniture acts as a separate designer indoor object.

In a small room, a more rational approach is suitable: on the background of light walls, darker furniture (on 3-4 tones darker, but in the same color scheme).

Let your home be filled with bright colors: joy, spiritual warmth and limitless happiness.
