Colorful Upholstery for Your Colorful Life
You must be a pretty artistic and jovial person to want to have the most colorful design elements for your home. Not a lot of people would immediately fall for a maroon sofa or a tangerine recliner. But if your heart is aching to have these, then these may be the reasons why –
Highly creative people love using fresh ideas. While we all know the safety that neutral hues have to offer, the most artistic persons on the planet do not just conform. It is because they are highly imaginative, they quickly transition from one aspect to another. They also love originality and their heads are constantly brimming with ideas and innovations.
An artistic person is also one who is highly flexible yet comes with mood fluctuations. All these positive and not-so-positive aspects of a creative person makes colorful furnishings an appealing choice to them.
Consider the Potential of Colors
A colorful chaise lounge or armchair is a versatile piece that not everyone can handle. There are, of course, some colors that are a lot easier to work with compared with others. If you want a great starter hue, you can always go for blue.
A lot of people are already used to seeing a sea of blue so the expanses of blue are everywhere from the clothes that they wear to the skies and, yes, at the waters of the great oceans. So when they see blue in your home, it’s a welcome sight, it’s even something that is refreshing thing to see.
A blue couch or tufted chair could easily jive with pops of green somewhere. It could also blend well with chocolate browns or the richness of yellow.
White Backdrop as Canvas
If you’re still worried about being able to carry out a colorful interior design, then you can still rely on the freshness
of white. White walls can easily become your canvas. As an artist, your mind can now go from color to color. From ceiling to top, you can now choose from the brightest colors that you can think of and you’d never go wrong – try orange sectionals or even that bulky wooden coffee table.
You can also place an amazing sculpture or painting in the middle of a blank, white wall, oh it will be so captivating. And with proper lighting, who can resist looking at that art piece?
White can also provide the needed breathing room for your ultimately colorful space. It will balance the heavy textures and patterns that will soon be placed in your home so that what you achieve is more relaxed space.
Use Natural Elements
Another perfect way to surround your bold-colored furniture is to use natural elements. Say you use the rich hue of tangerine for your couch. Surround it with exciting natural elements such as stacks of firewood (especially since the fireplace will be requiring stacks of logs pretty soon), sheepskin rugs, and stone surfaces.
Speak of rugs, you can also go for other natural materials such as sisal and jute fibers.
Find Supporting Elements
Of course, you are using a pretty bold move by having bright or bold-colored pieces. If you still want more color to be brought in, then be sure to blend the equally bright colors. For example, don’t pair a flaming green couch with an orange.
Oh, no, just don’t.
A red upholstered chair can be paired with a chiefly blue ottoman and a bluish-gray sectional. The rug could then be simple black and white stripes. While there are many activities going on all at the same time, these design elements are still able to complement one another.
