White color can ruin the interior: designer tells how to prevent this

05.12.2024 05:20

White color is considered universal and classic.

It would seem that such a design option cannot spoil the interior in any way. But this is unfortunately not the case.

It is quite common for white color to deprive a room of its coziness.

How to avoid this? This question was answered by the expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior Yulia Tychino.

How white color can ruin the interior

A common mistake is to choose the classic version of this color.

At first glance, the “ordinary” white color (if it is the main color in the interior) brings only benefits: it expands the space, makes the room brighter, reduces the level of visual noise, and reduces the strain on the eyes.

But there is a problem: this design option turns a room that previously seemed comfortable and cozy into something reminiscent of a hospital room.

It becomes not very pleasant to be in such a place.

How to solve the problem

The above situation is not a reason to refuse to use white in the interior.

You just need to make the main color not the classic white, but one of its shades.

Good options: milky, creamy, beige. Choose any of them - and you will get all the advantages of white (visual expansion of space, conciseness, etc.), but will not turn the room into a "hospital ward".
