What happens if you paint a small room black

Black is a provocative color for living spaces. It has many nuances: on the one hand, black erases boundaries, on the other, it can turn an already tiny area into a black bag, in which there will be nothing to breathe. What does it depend on? First of all, from the design idea and to a greater extent - from the amount of light. If there is little light, then in such a room it will hardly be possible to feel anything, except for bouts of claustrophobia. And if there are glossy surfaces and a lot of lighting, then it will be a completely different context.

What shades are undesirable for a small space — A versatile alternative to black - light and pastel colors. It is much easier to choose the right accessories with them and they always win in a small space.

Bullfighting on 12 square meters

Red is one of the purest colors, naturalistic and vibrant. But using it in the interior is a big risk. Even in huge halls, red is too conspicuous and attracts attention. And if you use it in the interior of a small room, it will overload the space, pull it with an anchor, no matter how hard you try to smooth out the impression with accessories and furnishings.

If you cannot live without this shade, just do not take it as the main one, but use it in some small accessories. Red will look good with beige and sand in a " jewelry" dosage — If you cannot live without this shade, just do not take it as the main one, but use it in some small accessories.

Sucked in brown mud

Do you love green in complex shades? Then consider any tones other than swampy and muddy green. These colors do not create a sense of purity, they compress the space and do not want to "play" with other colors, except those that are in their own gamut. The result is unattractive.

Instead of swamp, give preference to olive or even grassy - they will not crush and overload the space

Peach Peach Strife

Peach shades were in vogue a couple of decades ago, but they hardly fit into modern trends. And pink peach isn't a great idea either, unless you're preparing a room for a Barbie.

A yellowish peach in the interior looks lurid, ponderous, and its only advantage is that it is not dark.

Sand or beige will look more expensive and elegant, and blue, graphite, white or even red can be added as accents

Mourning burgundy

This is a very beautiful and deep color, but if there is a lack of lighting, it looks like a mournful one, especially if you use matte textures in the interior. That is, burgundy, like black, needs a very careful approach.

It will be much easier if you leave the burgundy only as a rich accessory.

Clownery with orange

Orange orange is too bright to be used as a base tone. If you have north facing windows, you don't get a room full of citrus, but something dirty orange.

If you are haunted by a lack of sunlight in the interior, it is better to replace orange with any (preferably not too saturated) shade of yellow
