Color selection
Brown gamma is diverse: tone can be selected both in brightness and saturation and temperature.
Depending on the brightness, the shades can be divided into three groups: bright, medium and dark. You can choose the appropriate, based not only on your own preferences. But even taking into account the effect, which gives one or another color.
- The light floor in combination with the same walls gives the room a feeling of space. But the interior in the cold palette sometimes looks too strict.
- Light floor and dark walls make space already. This technique can be used when adjusting the proportions of the room.
- Interior with white walls and brown floors will expand the space. But note that in this case the ceiling must be light.
- If the walls and the floor are dark, the feeling of the well will be created. Visually, the room may seem already than it really is. But above. Actually, if the room is wide, but with low ceilings.
Adjust the proportions of the room, whether it is a living room or a bedroom, it is also possible by allocating certain walls. For example, the dark posterior wall visually makes it shorter. And two dark surfaces around - already. So you can fix the wrong rectangle to a little if it is too stretched.
The temperature of the selected shade poorly affects perception. This is relevant when it comes to choosing the color of the walls. The rules of the combination of the colors in the outdoor coating does not exist. But, if you do not want to risk, choose close tone temperature so as not to create contrast. For example, with cold floor trim - the same walls.
What to combine light brown shades of the floor
To understand which combinations in the interior are suitable for a light brown floor, we offer to use the Circle of YTEN.
We will assume that these are olywed kokes, sometimes close to pastel beige. In theory, this color base that can be combined with almost any kelper. But there are proven combinations time.
- Opposite the orange-ocher beam lies blue. This is the first scheme - a combination of contrast tones. It is not necessary to use the blue in the wall decoration, you can add it partly, for example, in the form of accents in furniture.
- The second scheme is adjacent when three nearby shades are taken as the basis. For ocher it will be green and yellow. Or more monochrome combination: ocher, yellow and red.
- Light brown floor with white walls, in general, almost clean sheet. It is so neutral combination that you can experiment with furniture colors. For example, take contrasting pairs (as in the example with a red sofa and a blue chair in the photo). Or, on the contrary, make registration more relaxed, picking objects in beige-brown gamma.
Light brown laminate or parquet will look good with bright acromates - tones that are not in the circle of Ytten. This is black, white and the whole palette of gray. In our case, it will be bright shades of gray and white, and the black can be used in less major elements: the same doors.
How to combine floors in medium-brown tones
This group includes classic shades of brown. If we consider the tree, it is alder, beech, cherry, plum and other similar tones. More saturated kokes in the design look brighter.
Like beige, they can be combined with the achromatic palette. As a basic here, in some cases, the classic gray color is used, adding white. If you like the interior in a saturated range, we suggest to consider several combinations of colors in the interior with brown floors.
- The contrasting scheme can be used here in a more rich form. A classic bright ocher will suit blue, blue indigo and even turquoise. This is a rule of combinations of roller than saturation. However, pastel will also look good. But note that in this case the attention will attract the floor.
- Good options with green colors: grassy, emerald, bottle. They can be used as accents, for example, in furniture. And leave the walls neutral: dairy, white or with gray notes.
- OCC is good friendly with a red gamut. Bright colors complement and strengthen each other. A little to reduce their passion will help the light: the same dairy or more beige - white can be too highlighted with its brightness.
- Add to the red gamma salad or green. This is not the scheme of my ytten, but the combination looks very vividly and energetically.
- Instead of a scarlet or classic red, you can take cherry or burgundy - in this case and green is better to darken a little (a bottle or khaki is suitable).
What to combine dark brown floor in the interior
This finish always looks rich. Especially if natural wood is used: wenge, walnut, chestnut and different tinted options.
Sometimes such tones are replaced by the designers in the design. If you use this principle, then combine dark brown can be almost with any palette.
- It looks very good in achromatic and inappropriate decorations. Here are necessarily there are white, black, beige and other colors from an orange-oarsh beam. Try brass and gold as accents.
- Achromates can be diluted with small color stains in the interior: chair, pouff, painting. For this, any paints are suitable: from pale to saturated.
- Another ideal combination: black and brown and red (Bordeaux, and, if you want lighter, then the classic red). Due to the brown subteon, this pair does not look so aggressively as red-black. But in this case, it can be diluted with pastel gamut, including cold gray-white.
- We offer to consider the same blue palette as saturated colors. Here you can take both saturated shades: turquoise, blue, accurate, and delicate pastel.
