Interior Color Scheme–Adding Black To Your Room

AltonySe — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 06:04:27 +0000

Black Berries

Black storage ottomans and side tables add a sleek silhouette to this red kitchen and living room. Don’t underestimate the power of graphic pillows to pump up a simple color scheme. Here, cherry blossom pillows keep a charcoal-gray sofa looking chic, not drab.

Electric Color Combo
Let your fun, funky spirit come out with an outrageous wall color. Just tame it with touches of black: a sleek picture frame and mismatched black chairs do the trick.

One-Touch Wonder
A room as cheery as this country dining room needs a place for the eye to rest — simple black dining chairs fit the bill without calling too much attention to themselves.

Start Small
If you’re nervous about adding black to a room, start small by coating minor architectural details in black. The inside walls of a built-in and portions of the wall set apart by molding are ideal for these small touches.

Two Shades of Black
Mixing styles in black is a definite can-do. Here, a new-again damask print in black and white sits atop an antique black table. The shared colors pull them together for an elegant look.

Create a warming orange living room

By painting both the skirting and the walls in Tuscan Terracotta we give the room an increased feeling of height. By doing this the wall looks like it travels all the way to the floor, rather than being chopped off by a pale skirting.

Create a welcoming family hall way

Because life is for living we have used Roasted Red on the walls in Dulux Endurance Matt finish which is ten times tougher than conventional paint. This makes it easy to remove stubborn stains, perfect in a busy hallway like this. We’ve teamed that with Antique Satin on the tongue and Grove and painted the Table with Crazy Cream.

Create a light & airy space

Keep your look simple, crisp and understated like we have here by combining Pacific Breeze on the walls with Absolute White on the window frame and setting the room off beautifully is this ultra-modern chair.

Create a feminine pink bedroom

We have chosen two toning pinks for this exuberant yet feminine bedroom. Sexy Pink on the right creates a feature wall and is complemented beautifully with Sweet Pink on the back wall and Strawberries ‘n’ Cream on the window frames

Create a blue dressing room

For a very contemporary twist on a blue room, combine a soft blue such as First Dawn, with the cool grey quality of Illusion and Blue Chalk. Greys and blues look fabulous and work brilliantly in south facing rooms.

“We designed the family room to look like an addition to the ‘old’ house, with a peaked ceiling framed in antique beams,” says Victoria. “It’s our favorite part of the house.” Unadorned windows welcome in light and views of the surrounding fields. Sea-grass matting, a linen-slipcovered sofa, and a coffee table of Victoria’s own design have stood the test of toddlers and time. (via: countryliving.com)

Redecorating your home can be a very exciting time. Placement of living room furniture sofas and other home interior accessories and furnishings in the right way is very crucial. If you do this right you can make quite an impact on people.

•Evidently a tremendous shift this year is in the pillows and sofas used. Rather of displaying neutral sofas with more bright coloured throw pillows the exact opposite seems to be more appropriate today. This is not an absolute rule but if you are obsessed about not being behind the times this may be the best advice that you can follow this year.
