Dummies Guide To Interior Design Color Schemes
Does the thought of picking out a color scheme for your house
simply overwhelm you? If you're not sure how well a particular
group of colors will mix then perhaps you should go with a more
traditional color scheme? As long as you follow the simple rule
of choosing a single color as your primary room color and to use
other colors as accents you'll avoid your room becoming too
'color busy'.
Seaside color schemes are becoming increasingly popular in
modern interior decorating. Fresh aqua blue, sandy tan, sea
glass green and pale peach are all colors which figure strongly
in this scheme. The use of pale gray shades to evoke the feel of
weathered seaside boardwalks will also blend with the previously
mentioned colors.
Tropical schemes include sky blue, olive green and warm brown
toned colors. The use of red and purple as part of this scheme
makes perfect sense as they bring tropical flowers to mind.
Using a crisp white color at any stage also
gives any room a
more 'airy' feel to it.
If you want a European color scheme then using rich old world
colors like dark gold, purple, blue, black and a deep red will
give you the desired effect. Using these colors can add a 'glow'
to each room.
French color schemes demand a different set of colors. The use
of trendier colors like China blue, light maroon and pale gold
are perfect for evoking feelings of the French countryside.
Last but not least we have the Asian color scheme. Simple black
and white colors with Chinese red and blue accents are most
common in this theme. The careful use of gold in this scheme is
also an idea worth investigating.
Now get to work. Pick a color scheme and get started on creating
the home of your dreams.
