Color characteristic
Turquoise is obtained as a result of a mixture of blue and green. In nature, there are many of its options. The palette is not limited to a saturated pigment. If there is more than greens in tone, the color is obtained with a more warm, approximate to the grassy gamma. Add a little more blue, and it turns out a refreshing azure.
Shades are characterized by brightness. A weightless mint, which is so popular today - one of the brightest shades of turquoise. And the thick saturated dark is often compared with the thickness of the water, it is called the "deep Atlantic".
In the design of the living room, turquoise color is used very actively and as a base, and for the placement of accents. It's all about his dual nature. Blue and green based on it expand the possibility of combination with other paints. About them and talk.
Combination with turquoise color in the interior of the living room
The whole palette of combinations can be divided into two large groups: bright and muted. The latter will include options with color-agromat, that is, black, white and gray, and the base, to which, in addition to these three, are beige and its shades.With agromat and base
The colors of the achromatis gamma is the calm. Even saturated turquoise is easily neutralized by the neighboring gray. And even more so the interior is gentle, if you place a pastel palette next to white.
If you doubt what basis to take, light or dark, use one of the basic rules of color - selection of tones in brightness. Lightly turquoise will fit diluted paints in the form of white and light gray. Saturated turquoise will look good with dark gray and black.
Designers use often contrasting combinations, for example, a bright thick turquoise with a dairy and white palette. But in the interior of the living room, in addition to turquoise tones, then it is better to introduce one more transcendeter of medium brightness. Otherwise, the turquoise-white pair can cause associations with a bathroom.
Beige - special color. It is considered basic, because actually represents a neutral background. But this is not quite so when it comes to Lazari.
The fact is that for her beige is a soft contrast tone. If you look at the color circle of ytten, then in it opposite the green-blue lies orange beam. In a muted and selected version, this will be a beige palette.
The combination of azure and beige shades is harmonious, it is widely used in design. Vivid color spots on a neutral background, for example, turquoise sofa look implicitly. Do not forget about the textures. The tree will make the interior more interesting from the point of view of the combination of materials, and at the same time it will not be knocked out of the gamma. Thus, it is often designed a kitchen set, if the room is connected to the kitchen.
Contrast combinations
If the pair of azure and beige seems to you not contradicting enough, add more rich orange to it. It is better to take a complex kel, for example, brick, terracotta, mustard or ocher. Especially if we are talking about textiles. They look richer and noble.
With adjacent tones
In fact, we are talking about monochrome - the shades that lie next to the color circle are used in this design. In the photo, such combinations with turquoise colors in the interior of the living room look bright and non-standard. Most often, such adhesives are used in kitche and eclectics - directions that can withstand the real load with color.
If you like the idea of a pseudo-chromic bright gamma, be sure to evaluate the capabilities of your own room. Only spacious rooms in which enough natural light will look truly stylish.
Combination of several shades
These are variants of triangles, squares and rectangles in the Otten circle. The following options are considered classic.
- Azure - pink - yellow.
- Cote d'Azur - Blue - Green.
- Cote d'Azure - Ohruted - red.
- Azure - green - orange - raspberry.
- Azure - yellow - purple - ocher.
Combines for three or more colors is always not easy. It is important not only to "get into the shade", but also observe the proportions of the tones. Otherwise, it may turn out a vague picture with an incomprehensible gamut.
Use in the interior
After the range of design is determined, the time of proportions occurs. How to enter color?As accents
This is the easiest way. It is enough to add some details to feel a refreshing effect.
- The most budget reception is to replace textiles on the pillows, put vases on the coffee table and hang a picture on the wall in the corresponding colors.
- More interesting - accent furniture. It can be a sofa, which is especially good in the velvet (the same boho-chic), a closet for books or, for example, a chest of drawers.
As a supplement
Here the color will be already about a third of the overall range of design. We implement such a reception with the help of an accent wall and the same furniture, soft or cabinet.
- Simple implementation option: Use one large color spot and support its accessories. For example, sofa and curtains, chairs and paintings, carpet and pillows and so on.
- If you liked the idea with an accent wall, and the living room area allows you to implement it, take a look at the wallpaper with the print. They look more interesting than a monophonic painted wall. But such an emphasis itself will be brighter.
As a base
If you like bright decorations, and you are not afraid to use colors, this option is for you. Turquoise can replace gray, beige and even white, especially if the choice fell on the translucent bulk tones.
- Choose suitable wall paint, and the living room will become brighter and characteristic.
- If natural light is enough, do not be afraid of dark-turquoise calves.
- Do not want to overload the room? Then the light palette is suitable, for example, the same mint, pang or heavenly.
