Colors for a harmonious rendering
the choice of colors is of great importance. It is also worthwhile to take an interest in the psychology of colors to make a choice that is both consistent with the room concerned and responds to the atmosphere you want to create. Otherwise, for this choice, you can also let yourself be guided by your desires or your preferences. The color will bring singularity to the space and sometimes it will take very little to give a more modern look to your living room. Here are a few things that can make all the difference:
- Cushions : opt for covers that reflect the new desired atmosphere. In addition, they will bring a cozy touch to the room.
- Carpet : for their warm appearance, you can also integrate one or more rugs into your decor. Again, there is something for everyone.
- Drapes : depending on whether you choose them fluid or thicker, white or colored, they will play a different role and create a distinct look.
Either way, be sure to create a whole in perfect harmony using the color of your sofa, one of the bulkiest pieces of furniture in the living room, as a starting point. If it is in more neutral shades, it will give you more freedom. Thus, you can play with the colors according to your desires. For example, you can choose a color and bet on the shades or choose up to 3 colors. Beyond 3, you will have to act with caution so as not to end up with a result that is too chaotic, unless it is a clear choice, such as the creation of a very colorful kitsch decoration.
