How to choose interior colors without a designer: a simple formula will help
An incorrectly chosen color scheme is a common mistake that occurs when apartment owners who are planning a renovation want to save money on the services of an interior design specialist.
BelNovosti online publication expert designer Yulia Tychino told how to avoid an annoying mistake without turning to professionals.
First of all, it is worth once again stating a well-known truth: you should not try to combine all the colors of the rainbow in one room.
Unless, of course, we are talking about the premises of a kindergarten – then your hands are really untied. However, in the case when we mean the interior of an apartment, where you want to feel cozy and comfortable, you should stick to a simple proportion.
It looks like this: 60-30-10.
What do these numbers mean? Here's what: 60 is the main shade in which the walls, floor and ceiling should be made.
30 – additional, it applies to textiles and furniture.
But 10 is nothing more than an accent color, which can be used for decor and accessories.
Thus, you can create a stylish interior if you mix only 3 colors. The main thing is not to mix cold and warm tones, otherwise dissonance will inevitably arise.
