Dark floor, light ceiling and bright walls or, maybe bright furniture and neutral finish? We show how quickly and easily navigate in the color combinations using our tables and ready-made schemes.
Colorics are one of the most interesting and at the same time complex component of the design. No one wants to guess and mistaken with the choice of paints. Therefore, to the issue of choosing the range of design it is necessary to approach responsibly. We offer table combination tables in the interior: Walls, floor, ceiling and furniture.

What you need to know about the choice of gamma
Let's start with the theory. According to the basics of color design, there are three colors in any interior: base (or base), addition and accents. In percent, it looks like 60 - 30 - 10, where most occupies the main color, slightly less - the additional and the smallest part falls on accents. This does not mean that the palette of combined colors in the interior consists of only three tones, they can be more. Then they are crushed within the group.
The main is usually finishing the ceiling, gender and walls. Additional killers bring furniture, it can also become an emphasis. Details, textiles and metals - more often act as accent colors. This distinction is conditionally, in practice, designers are experimenting with the presentation of paints.
The second principle that follows from this rule concerns her beloved color. Many are ready to paint the walls into adorable bright blue or green. But after a couple of years, they begin to regret this decision, and then the time of the next repair comes. Our advice: as the basis, select a more neutral palette. It may be greenish, and blue gamut, but it is better to choose more calm, muted paints in their framework. From them you definitely do not get tired. In addition, during the selection of paints, it is worth considering the area and size of the room. Not all kickers look good on a large area, for example, on the wall. You can learn using the paintings.
We suggest to consider the two approaches to the range in the interior. The first - fashionable monochrome today.
Monochrom
Monochrome - registration within one color palette. Most often for this designers choose the basic: beige and gray. They add appropriate textures to them. For example, a different tree, stone and concrete - selected by tonality, they are able to dilute the interior, make it more interesting and more dynamic.
Thus, maybe, for example, look like a table of a combination of beige colors in the interior.
what | Color | Texture |
---|---|---|
Floor | Dark brown | Tree, porcelain stoneware |
Walls | Warm or cold medium tonality | Stucco, wallpaper with a print, tree as accents (MDF panels, rails) |
Furniture | Dairy, reddish, dark brown | Leather, textiles, book, fur |
One of the fashionable design techniques is the dilution of monochrome by a solo bright accent. As such a color spot, it is the subject of medium size: in the living room it can be a chair or a sofa, a picture or a coffee table, in the bedroom - curtains or textiles, in the kitchen - the dining room.
Pay attention to the distribution of the tonality. Most often, the floor is the darkest element, the walls are performed on average range and ceiling - the brightest. By default, we propose not to experiment with its color, a white matte ceiling is a good solution in any style.
With saturation and brightness of the walls, it is possible to experiment, especially if the placement of the wrong shape: narrow and long rooms adjust the same way as wide and low ceilings.
By analogy, you can create a table of a combination of gray in a monochrome interior.
what | Color | Texture |
---|---|---|
Floor | Graphite | Porcelain stoneware with stone or concrete |
Walls | Warm or cold medium tonality | Texture plaster, print wallpaper, paint |
Furniture | Black, light gray, graphite | Leather, textiles, book, fur |
Principles of combination
The second version of the palette is more difficult. This is a combination of different shades from the ITTEN circle. Four schemes are considered classic here.
- Complementary or contrasting. This scheme is based on a combination of opposite, contrasting colors. This, for example, the following pairs: blue - orange, lemon - purple, red - green and so on.
- Adjacent or analog. It resembles the monochrome principle of combination, but in fact it is a few shades (often three) lying next to the color circle. This is red - yellowish - orange, purple - blue - blue and so on. The principle is very simple. At the same time, each color can be divided into several components, and play in their combination. For example, use heavenly blue and indigo in combination with blueberry and emerald.
- Mix of three rays, equidistant from each other, is called triad. This is a bright contrast: red - yellow - blue, purple - green - orange. As part of these rays, it is also possible to experiment with more complex and varied combinations without changing the essence of the approach. For example, break yellow on mustard and pastel, adding scarlet, burgundy and indigo to him.
- Split-complementary harmony is an equifiable triangle. Simply put, this is one contrastinger, supplemented by two practically adjacent. In practice, it looks like this: Yellow - Fuchsia - Violet, Green - Purple - Scarlet, Orange - Turquoise - Blue.
- Finally, there are more complex combinations of 4 rays. But within the framework of independent design, we do not recommend resorting to such a variety. Nonprofessional pick up such a scheme is difficult, it is easy to ride in chaos and a colored suck.
The schemes presented are best working when choosing additional and accent tones when you doubt how to dilute the basic kernels. It is important to note that against the background of the agromat (gray, black and white), as well as a neutral beige, any combination will look good. This is the safest way to use and introduce color in the room.
Actual shades
This item is about topical paints, according to manufacturers of paints and varnishes and companies that are engaged in design. The table will help you navigate in the choice of concrete.
Gamma | Tints |
---|---|
Yellow | Mustard, lemon, pastel yellowish |
Orange | Ocher, clay, copper, sulphous orange, brick |
Red | Terracotta, Bordeaux, Fuchsia, Coral |
Purple | Lavender, ink, eggplant, blackberry, accumulated |
Blue | Employed turquoise, choped azure, blue-green, Navi, natural blue |
Green | Emerald, Khaki, gray-green, herbaceous, mint |
We specifically not enter the basic in this table, as they are relevant without binding to time. Their choice, in addition to personal preferences, can affect the parameters of the room itself. This, for example, illumination (the more light, the darker can be the kel). And still stylistics. So, a cold gray palette is suitable in High-tech and loft, in modern decorations - ocher, in minimalism all natural tones are relevant, and in Scandinavian - elevated.
Color combination table in the interior of any room: living room, bedrooms and kitchens
Also on the palette can affect the functionality of the room you make. In the living room, where we spend the most time, it is better to give preference to more neutral tones, and in the bedroom, for example, you can experiment with flowers. We tried to collect recommendations and ready-made schemes for these rooms. But they can easily change places, if you, on the contrary, want to make a bright living room and a relaxing room. These mixers are universal.
Some designers advise not mixing cold and warm paints in one design. In fact, such a temperature of temperatures can make the room more interesting. But, if natural light is not enough, it is not necessary to get involved in cold and dark collers. It is better to use them as accents.
Basic tone: floors, walls, ceiling | Supplement: Furniture, Curtains, Carpets | Accent: individual items, paintings, textiles |
