Prepared by: M. Sharifa Fahd<\/strong> \u2013 One of the problems we often face when redecorating our homes or updating our furniture is choosing colors that are in style and coordinating them Colors<\/a> In an attractive and stylish way. Here are the steps to help you coordinate Decorative Colors<\/a> Home Made Easy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start by choosing a floor color\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The floor is the fixed element in a home whose color never changes, and it occupies the largest visible area, so you should start with it. For example, if you have brown parquet flooring, you\u2019ll need a light shade that complements it and softens the intensity of the brown in the floor. You can choose a shade of beige or a very light blue, The key is that it complements the brown. In this case, follow this rule: the dominant color should be 60%, the secondary color 30%, and the complementary color 10%, meaning that the wall color is the dominant color, the color of the rug or furniture is the secondary color, and the complementary color is the color of the pillows, lampshades, and accessories\u2014preferably a bright, vibrant shade. We coordinate colors as they appear in nature: a dark color for the floor, a lighter color for the walls, and a very light color for the ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0Coordinating Home Decor Using the Color Wheel\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Understanding the color wheel is one way to easily coordinate colors, and it is divided into:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Primary colors: These include red, yellow, and blue. Secondary colors: These are the colors produced by mixing the primary colors and include orange, green, and violet. Tertiary colors: These are the colors produced by mixing a primary color with a secondary color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 \u2013 Solid Color <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is the simplest way to use color, as it relies on a single color while incorporating lighter or darker shades of that same color, To overcome the neutrality that results from this approach, you can cleverly break it up by using different types of fabrics\u2014for example, using satin and velvet pillows with a chiffon tablecloth will make a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 \u2013 Similar Colors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This technique relies on using two adjacent colors on the color wheel, such as orange and red, and can be expanded to include up to six adjacent colors on the wheel. You can make use of this color scheme when working with fabrics in multiple colors by selecting certain shades of these colors for the walls and curtains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 \u2013 Complementary Colors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Here, we rely on two colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel, such as yellow and violet, and we often use this combination to achieve more contrasting results. When using this combination, it\u2019s best to use one color boldly and the opposite color in a muted shade. For example, using red with sky blue yields a better result than using it with pure blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 \u2013 Triadic Colors<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is a bolder way to mix colors, based on any three colors that form a triangle on the color wheel\u2014such as orange, green, and purple. If you\u2019re hesitant to take a big risk by using this color combination extensively, you can incorporate it by using the third color in room accessories such as tablecloths, pillows, or even curtains. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3 \u2013 Choosing a wall color<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to wall color, you should choose the shade that appears least frequently in the room, whether it\u2019s in the flooring or the furniture. For example, if you have curtains with silver sparkles or threads, choose that color in whatever shade you prefer for the walls, creating an instant harmony with the existing colors.It\u2019s also best to choose neutral colors for the walls so you don\u2019t get tired of them and so they go well with all the colors of your furniture and decor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 \u2013 The Nature of Colors and Their Effect on Space and the Psyche<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Each color conveys certain emotions, as if it carries a subtle message to the mind. Red, for example, is considered a warm and powerful color that directly affects people\u2019s psychology; it instills energy and vitality. Most studies indicate that red increases blood pressure and heart rate, thereby heightening feelings of affection and passion; therefore, it is recommended for use in bedroom and living room decor, as well as in the dining room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

 It helps promote calmness and lower blood pressure and heart rate. Because there are many shades of blue, their effects vary between light and dark; it is preferable to choose a light shade because it conveys a sense of warmth and enhances feelings of relaxation. It is recommended for use in bedrooms and bathrooms but is not recommended for dining rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Green:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

 It is one of the most soothing colors for the eyes and nerves, suitable for any room in the home, and it conveys warmth, freedom, and comfort. It is considered an essential color for home accessories that complement furnishings because it alleviates the feeling of daily stress, It is also an excellent choice for the bedroom. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yellow: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It boosts self-confidence, so it\u2019s best to incorporate it into your home d\u00e9cor; it creates a sense of fun, joy, and optimism, and it evokes light more than any other color. Yellow is a good choice for the kitchen, dining room, and bathroom, but it is not a good choice for children\u2019s rooms because it can affect their nerves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Purple: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It is a color full of romance; it adds depth to a design and has a psychological effect that evokes joy and sensitivity. Children love it, which is why it\u2019s often used in bedroom accessories, It is also essential for children\u2019s rooms, though it may be a source of melancholy for older adults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pink:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

 It is one of the colors that help relax muscles, and it is best used in bedrooms and bathrooms. It has a calming effect on aggressive people and those prone to violence because it creates a romantic atmosphere in the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neutral Colors: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It is one of the primary colors in design and adds a distinctive elegance and beauty to home d\u00e9cor; white brings comfort and peace and is incorporated into all home accessories, down to the smallest details. Black, on the other hand, is a strong, elegant, and bold color that pairs well with many other colors and can be used in any room. Brown, considered the \u201cmaster of colors,\u201d is a versatile and simple shade frequently used in natural wood furniture; it can be paired with bold colors such as turquoise or red. Brown lends a sense of modesty and warmth to the home. Gray, on the other hand, is a balanced color that is easy on the eyes and neutral in expression; it is often used for backgrounds and in combination with other colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5 \u2013 Neutral colors are the foundation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you want to create a modern design that pops with vibrant colors\u2014or even a more subdued look\u2014you should know that the foundation here is soft or neutral colors. You should choose a wall color like gray, white, or ivory (off-white) first, and then start incorporating the rest of the colors\u2014such as choosing a multicolored sofa or chair, or painting one wall a different color. That\u2019s what makes the difference, not using a bold color on the walls. You can also use neutral colors for the walls, floors, and furniture and accent them with other colors to create a more serene atmosphere. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
