White color is undoubtedly present in any interior, as it is characterized by such features as versatility, neutrality, and can also be used as a background for other shades.

However, despite the listed advantages, the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, is sure: in some rooms, white color, to put it mildly, does not look good.

Below are listed the errors that can lead to such an undesirable effect.

1. Natural light should not be ignored.

If the room where you plan to use white has large windows facing the sunny side, choose a cool shade of white and equally bright shades.
But if there is not enough light in the room, use a warm white color, as a result of which you can make the apartment more comfortable.

2. Don't mix matte and glossy white

You shouldn't use matte and glossy shades at the same time because they react differently to light. While gloss has the ability to reflect and visually looks brighter, matte textures absorb light, which is why they seem muted.

3. Don't decorate your entire interior in white

It’s better to take our word for it – being in a completely white room causes stress in a person, which manifests itself in the form of increased excitability or, conversely, an unbearable desire to sleep.

The solution is to use color spots in a white interior.
