It turns out that some classic colors that many people perceive as ideal for a room actually cheapen the interior.

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

Colors that make the interior look cheaper

We are talking about basic colors that, at first glance, are a good background, but in fact are characterized by banality.

An interior that contains such tones is perceived as boring and not very expensive.

Want your room to look stylish, original and luxurious? Then avoid using the following "obvious" colors:

  • green;
  • red;
  • blue.

These are too simple design options.

Be more original, experiment. Opt for turquoise, lime, olive, scarlet, madder or sky blue.

In general, choose not the base color, but one of its shades.

In this case, the interior will acquire depth, style, uniqueness, beauty and “expensiveness”.
