These, always warm and occasionally vibrant, colour schemes could be utilised to keep your home looking bright and airy, even in mid-November.
There are a lot of house plants in these designs, but the various greens they add could be replaces with various accessories; these include cushions, throws, fake plants and more if you do not have , or want to own, any plants.
This post has all the Hex Codes for these palettes if you’d like to know the exact colours.
1. A colourful collection of hues
While the room architecture is something not common found, the colours in the sun speak for themselves. This space combines many colours that boarder on a tetradic colour scheme. They all work in harmony as they are equally balanced in both tone and saturation.
The emphasis on the warmer tone, such as the bright mustard sofa or the hanging lanterns, gives the room a soft and serene ambience.
2. A Perfect place for revisiting your favourite records
To be enjoyed alone or in company, the centre piece of this bold yet relaxed space has to be the orange ochre sofa. The vibrant colour of the sofa and rug are caught by the more neutral colours surrounding it: the walls and ceiling, the plant life, the wall hanging that is similar to the rug but its darker and less saturated.
Although I love the addition of so many indoor plants, it would be quite difficult to maintain all of them. An alternative could be green drapes, standing lamps or fake plants.
3. Using natural textures with simple colours
A very natural pallet, that is so soothing to look at, that also incorporates texture. A great method for creating an interesting room is to have quite a basic colour scheme for the furnishings, however this will allow for more textures to be added.
In this case the lampshade, the wooden table, the woven stool, the plant pots and, of course, the variation of texture from all the plants, all fit into the room in a minimalistic way that does not feel overcrowded. Making sure there is enough floorspace also helps.
4. A refreshing place to cool off
I’d compare this space to a sweet but sharp lemonade, very enjoyable but will certainly wake you up. The colours paired with all the different patterns makes for a very dynamic living room. The patterns can be nicely balanced because none of them are overly complicated and there are sill area of block colour to dilute them.
The bright yellow is small but effective, especially because it’s spread a little bit around the room by the ornaments on the table and below the television. The plant that is similar to the wall paper is a nice touch.
5. A bright and light contrast
Something slightly more rustic. Ordinarily this would be quite a standard room but what really stuck out to me was the bright contrast between the lampshade and chair, the way they’re at opposite ends on the picture is like they’re facing off against each other.
If you have space you’d just like to add some life to, then having a few piece of contrasting furniture like this would work. I think this look could be enhanced further by the addition of a few subtle decorations matching the colours of the chair and lampshade to make it a more cohesive space.
6. Having a few dabs of colour
A space filled with features that would be perfect for renters, with minimal wall hangings and no wall painting or papering required. Often more space, or even the illusion of space in a room, make us feel more at ease and there is no better way of doing this than with a good light source and bright walls.
There is no obvious blocks of colour in this room, instead it’s placed around the room in a different composition: hints of green and yellow from the indoor plants and hanging shelves, the blobs of orange from the sofa cushions, rug and plant pot.
This simplicity also compliments the beautiful fishbone flooring here.
7. Modern with a vintage twist
Almost a variation of the pallet above but with completely different principles. There are clear areas of colours here, such as the bright armchair and almost golden cabinet. A vintage inspired area like this would be perfect for warm evenings, dim lighting and a glass or two of prosecco.
8. Bright and bold to suit the sunshine
Taking it back to bold and bright, the way complimentary colours is so brilliant. They way the red is spread across the lamp and chair then put against a wall of dark cyan, topped with a few peaks of yellow. All of this combined with the wooden furniture creates this truly artistic, 70s inspired space, perfect for a morning coffee or an evening old fashioned.
I love to how the areas are almost split up into sections: the blue wall is only a section of the full wall, the reds are grouped together and separated from the elevated yellows.
9. Seafoam and sand
Seeing this light seafoam being used on the wall is seldom seen but welcomed. Because the usual light cream colour is not on the wall it can now be used more by the furniture and furnishings.
Also due to the uncomplicated nature of the wall decorations and the lovely circular mirror, the big patterned rug can be added without making to room too busy.
10. A relaxing minimal nook
The fist thing that came to mind when seeing this room what that peach-y colour, almost rose gold. While the sharp contrast of the sofa and it’s cushions give a certain amount of energy to the room, it’s size and lighting still make for quite a cosy space.
The translucent curtains are a lovely inclusion, not only for their look as they can maintain privacy without blocking out any light.
