3 interior design problems that can be solved with color: how to make an apartment cozy and functional

All interior design experts know the unspoken rule: when the shade of a color changes, the perception of space changes.

Expert of the online publication Belnovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, spoke about the main principles of working with color, thanks to which you can make your own apartment not only comfortable, but also functional.

1. Use color to zone the space

By using a combination of different shades in one room, you can divide the space into several zones. This advice is relevant for studio apartments or, for example, for a children's room in which a boy and a girl live, as well as for many other cases.

When zoning, not only the walls, but also the floor can have different colors: different floor coverings or the same ones, but having different shades, are useful for this.

In the same case, if you think it is inappropriate to use contrasting finishing materials in the interior, turn to accessories for help, placing, for example, pillows of different colors in different areas.

2. Make the room warm or, conversely, cold

A group of colors from yellow to red-violet will help to achieve “warmth,” and you can make the interior cold by using colors from violet to yellow-green.

In the first case, the room will become comfortable and cozy, while in the second you will be able to calm down and relax.

3. Add dynamism

This tip will appeal to those who think that the room looks too dull, simple and boring, you can add dynamism using color.

For example, active broken angles made in pastel colors are a very beautiful geometry.
