In whatever style the room is decorated, the walls carry the central color load. With them, in fact, the drawing of the interior begins. The walls are responsible for psychological comfort, and for the degree of illumination, and for the harmonious combination of all elements of the interior. What is it, the right palette of paints for walls, what are its secrets and what should be taken into account so as not to make a mistake in choosing.
Wall paint: individual color features
The basis of the spectrum, which is familiar to human vision, is the well-known rainbow. A delightful natural phenomenon, consisting of seven starting sectors of color. The desire of any of them to lightness leads to the appearance of white, going into darkness gives black. At each of these stages, new shades are born, widely used by man in his home. There is even a whole science, colorimetry, which studies color. But we will not dive into complex scientific research and consider the palette of colors more sublimely, using the practice of Feng Shui.
Since the rainbow is the spectral middle, their properties also extend to the shades of colors. Here are the explanations given by Feng Shui:
- Red(coral, burgundy) - this is the energy of life. It stimulates and excites, attracts the eye and enhances passion. In his positive - revival, dynamism, creation and gratitude. Negativity is expressed in destruction, cruelty, violence, stubbornness and shamelessness. The interior is easily perceived by energetic people leading an active lifestyle.
- Orange (tangerine, honey, amber) is the color of optimism, good nature, sociability and freedom. Positive is expressed in mercy, tolerance, generosity. A great option for rooms where people often communicate. It promotes openness and goodwill.
- Yellow(cream, fawn, lemon) is laughter, joy, rebirth and love. It has a positive effect on the mental abilities of a person, helps to concentrate. Ideal for decorating a school or student's room. The main thing is not to overdo it with saturation, otherwise negative signs will come out in the form of talkativeness, critical views, absent-mindedness.
- Green(mint, light green, pistachio) is an absolute harmony. Symbolizes life, freshness, peace, balance. Versatile for any space.
- Blue(sea wave, azure, lavender) - associated with cold, but also brings peace, wisdom, balance. In the negative complacency and superstition. Shown for the interior of bedrooms and lounges.
- Blue(indigo, electric, aquamarine) - the color of independence, justice and devotion. Organic as color accents, when saturated causes depressing feelings. Gives the interior seriousness and respectability.
- Violet(purple, heliotrope, lilac) is a power that raises kindness, wisdom and love to their highest manifestations. We love creative people, prone to mysticism. Often used in the interior of bedrooms and personal cabinets.
Color plays a huge role in human life, it affects well-being, mood, performance, relationships. The kitchen is an important part of our home, we spend a lot of time there, so choosing the color of the walls for this room should be taken seriously.
Basic rules for choosing wall colors for the kitchen
- A large drawing visually reduces the size of the room.
- Small drawing, on the contrary, makes the room seem more spacious than it really is.
- Geometric patterns on the walls of the kitchen in the form of intersecting stripes, like the ornament on Scottish kilts, create the illusion of a continuous space.
- The vertical pattern "raises" the ceilings, visually "increasing" the height of the room.
- The horizontal pattern and horizontal stripes on the walls "expand" the kitchen while reducing its height.
- Diagonal lines on the walls bring dynamics to the interior of the kitchen, creating the illusion of movement.
- Textured wallpapers look very extraordinary. By endowing the surface of the walls with new qualities, they are able to create an additional dimension in the room. Thanks to the play of shadows and penumbraes, curious color nuances and unexpected alternations of textures, you can get a lot of interesting effects.
It is believed that for a small apartment you need to use as light neutral colors as possible, and preferably one color. In this case, white is considered the best color. But this is just one of the . There is a certain amount of truth here, but such a position greatly limits the possibilities of design and makes the interior boring, colorless, inexpressive. Well, if one color is used, then it even visually reduces the space. So, it will not live up to expectations: it will remain a small white room.
For decoration, you need to use two or three colors. One color will visually reduce, and more colors are only suitable for large spaces. The choice of two or three colors depends on your preferences. At the same time, two colors are more academic, strict, two-color combinations tend more towards. Three colors are a more fantasy combination, this is typical for more. The basic principle of selection is as follows: in general, the color of the apartment should be light, without sharp contrasts, but at the same time with bright details.
One color should be the base (there will be more of it). It can be walls, large architectural elements, part of the furniture. Here it just should be very light, including white. But the second color can already be muted bright, and you need to choose pure colors. For example, if you want to use yellow, then it should be exactly the base yellow (dandelion color), and not lemon or carrot.
The second color gives the room depth. Large furniture, a wall detail or an entire wall can be represented in this color. It should be noted here that the second additional color can also be a shade of the base color, but only it must differ significantly in saturation (for example, very light beige and oak color). Then the base and secondary colors will not be perceived as one color.
The third color can be just very bright, or even dark(including black). The third color gives the room expressiveness and mood. As a rule, these are decorative accessories, small pieces of furniture, rugs, trinkets.
Colors should be combined in a ratio: 60: 30: 10. Here 60 percent is the base light color, 30 is an additional moderately bright color, and 10 are the brightest accents. This proportion is the most optimal for a small apartment.
You need to arrange the colors like this: darker and brighter - in the depths of the room, light - in the foreground. The brightest accents can be placed throughout the volume, but the larger ones are still in the background. For example, a bright orange chair, of course, should be placed further from the entrance. But orange vases can stand anywhere. In general, it is better to avoid general variegation, and use color to highlight individual zones.
And if well lit - cold. This applies to complementary colors and accessories.
In order not only to visually increase the size of the apartment, but also to “raise” the ceiling, you can use the base color of the walls in an unusual way: use not one, but several shades of the same color on the walls, so to speak, with a “stretch”, from darker at the bottom to lighter upstairs.
The best color combinations for a small apartment are:
Various shades of white (white is not a single color, it has many shades!) with any muted bright colors (light yellow, light pink, peach, gray, light green, light blue, bluish-greenish, muted orange , light lilac). Bright accessories with a basic white color can be of any color.
Cream - beige. Accessories: yellow, red or orange.
Light beige - chocolate. Accessories: red, orange, white.
Light beige - terracotta. Accessories: pink, crimson, yellow.
Cream - muted orange. Accessories: bright orange, green, terracotta, chocolate.
The color of unbleached wool is light yellow. Accessories: white, green, reddish brown.
Very pale blue - light green. Accessories: white, mother-of-pearl, blue, emerald, bright green.
Pale yellow - turquoise. Accessories: dark brown, green, orange.
Ivory color - muted cherry. Accessories: lilac, yellow, wood color.
Pearl gray - yellow. Accessories: dark blue, white, black.
Very pale pink - light lilac. Accessories: fuchsia, purple, blue.
The color of unbleached wool is blue. Accessories: white, blue, grey, light terracotta.
Light peach - the color of the tree. Accessories: black-brown, golden, cream.
The color of champagne is the color of dark wood. Accessories: red, white, ivory.
Do not forget that you can use different shades of the same color as two primary colors. For example, light beige and dark beige or different shades of green, etc. Accordingly, accessories should be of a different color, but they must be combined with this range.
When decorating a small apartment, you should avoid combinations such as red - green, yellow - blue, and orange - purple. By themselves, these are very harmonious combinations, they are even called contrasting harmonies (on the color wheel), but they are only suitable for large spaces. It is also advisable not to use the combination of black and white colors - this is too sharp a contrast for a small apartment.
