The wrong color scheme can ruin any room.

But first of all, we are talking about small spaces.

There are colors that, if used incorrectly, make the interior less interesting, deprive a small room of coziness, and also narrow an already not very wide space.

What colors exactly are we talking about? This question was answered by Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior.

In addition, the specialist shared important recommendations.

Black

Dark design can cause a serious visual narrowing of space.

This is why black is hardly suitable for a small room.

But if you still want to opt for a dark design, then make sure that the room has good lighting.

However, it is better to use white or beige rather than black.

Red

The problem with this color is that it is too bright for a small room.

Because of this design, the room will begin to seem uncomfortable and less spacious.

However, this does not mean that you should completely abandon the use of red in the interior. Just do not make this color the main one: limit yourself to installing only a few small red details. And alternate bright shades with more "calm" ones.

Green

This color is considered ideal for a bedroom. This design helps to calm down and relax.

But there is an important recommendation: pay attention to shades. Light green is a great choice.

But dark green (or even swamp) color will clearly make the room less cozy and comfortable. In addition, this shade will not allow achieving an important effect - visual expansion of space.
