Apartment design in light colors: the embodiment of modern style

Each apartment owner wants to bring to life a cozy, homely atmosphere. But before drawing up a project, it is worthwhile to think carefully about the style of the room and its color scheme. Everyone has their own idea of ​​comfort, but many people agree on the preference to decorate their corner in bright colors. The rules dictated by modern trends are constantly changing, but white and other bedding tones firmly hold their positions.

Design work in this situation is limited only by your imagination, since the love of specialists in the creation of interiors for playing with white is widely known. Also, when creating the atmosphere, beige, golden, milky and cream shades are actively used.

Even the smallest apartment will look great in pastel colors because:

• additional light will fill your room;
• a small space visually expands;
• colors are easy enough to combine with each other;
• bright accents look more advantageous on light.

Such an atmosphere will never be oversaturated with boredom and tediousness. And complementing it with bright details will become a real work of art.

Keep in mind that lighting plays a key role in modern design. By combining various lighting methods, various lamps and other elements, it is possible to visually enlarge the space and bring comfort to the rooms.

The nature of the lighting must be taken into account. The main light source is the chandelier. Various spotlights, lamps and floor lamps equip a cozy corner in the large hall of a three-room apartment. Paintings, niches, certain areas are emphasized by decorative lighting, which is always true in a living space.

Many modern trends in the interior use white and pastel colors. These include both Scandinavian and classic styles. White is often used to decorate the walls of high-tech houses, and this once again shows the versatility of pastel shades and their successful combination with other colors.

Ceilings in white are often performed using drywall or tension structures, and in this case, it is recommended to decorate the floor in a coffee or milky shade.

Tiles, painted wood or parquet flooring can be used to create the desired accent. Those who want to get extra comfort can lay the carpet on the floor, but it is important that the overall color scheme echoes its color.

Depending on the chosen style, the walls can be wallpaper, tiles or paint. Despite the fact that white on the walls always looks stylish, you can resort to using light gray, gold and beige.

The modern design of an apartment of any size and its layout requires the use of practical, natural and high-quality fabric. An increase in visual space is achieved with the use of light-colored finishing materials, as well as correct lighting.

Practical finishes are a special feature of any living space. The hallway and bathroom, decorated with ceramic tiles, in most cases look interesting, especially if they are lined with a pattern on the floor and walls. If you need a kind of neoclassicism, then this technique will also be appropriate.

Combinations of various contrasts are always relevant. Wallpaper glued for painting allows you to change the color of the surface.

A feature of the modern design of any room, apartment and house is the use of neutral shades in combination with brighter colors.

The play of contrast also fits well into any interior and style, be it classic or high-tech. Light colors are used much more often, since they provide a visual increase in space. Rooms that have a small area in a multi-room apartment should not be performed in a dark color.

Furnishings in a wide variety of styles also include monochromatic surfaces. For example, eco-style is decorated in white, beige, light brown and other warm colors. For other design directions, light gray, blue, green shades can be used.

The harmony achieved by light shades can also include several neutral tones, such as white or beige, which are complemented by bright details.

Of course, white is the "king", but you should not neglect the use of other colors when designing and creating the interior of an apartment / room. In the color palette, beige is next after the "king". It is the perfect base for a warm and gentle atmosphere. Due to its neutrality, it can be combined with a huge range of other colors and shades, which means it can be easily applied in any combination.

For example, a combination of beige with any contrasting shades, such as red, blue, yellow, black, brown, will be successful. There are a huge number of ideological variations that cannot be implemented without his participation.

The next color is gray. He rightfully deserves attention. In this color, you can safely decorate rooms in gray tones, starting with lighter tones and ending with combining it with the rest of the accents of the same gray. In addition, it can be combined with white, black, beige, yellow. In general, it is quite compatible with most paints.

The most common solution is black and white. This composition is most often chosen by lovers of a laconic style. Well-chosen accessories fit well into the overall picture.

Many people cannot imagine creating coziness in an apartment without using wallpaper. Indeed, they are almost perfect for any style. The variety of colors and textures of wallpaper is unusually wide today.

Therefore, when choosing them, it is advised to adhere to the following recommendations:

• determine the desired structure of the wallpaper. For example, paper wallpapers are more suitable for a bedroom. This is due to their airtightness and decorative range. The most successful solution is two-layer wallpaper made of paper of different types;
• take into account the color scheme, since it should fit the overall picture of the entire room in the design project;

• designers recommend that the entire perimeter of the room be decorated in pastel colors of the same type, and one wall should be executed with a pattern;
• choose glue that is suitable only for purchased wallpaper by its texture;
• if you opted for photo wallpaper or wallpaper with a pattern, it is recommended that before gluing, folding the pattern, mark the cut line when comparing;
• the room should have a warm air temperature and the presence of drafts, and even more so, moisture, is absolutely not allowed.

To achieve complete harmony and balance, as well as to create a cozy and comfortable atmosphere, an excellent option would be to place a bright (or coffee-colored) panel on light wallpaper. For lovers of decorations, you can create a whole scheme (collage) from pictures or photographs.

Various other decorative elements are also appropriate:

• mirrors;
• bookshelves;
• illumination from LED strips;
• other elements.

It is they who bring comfort to any apartment. But you need to keep in mind that everything should be in place and not violate the overall harmony. For a three-room apartment, cozy, long-pile carpets are a popular solution, which can be placed in the living room and, just as well, in the bedroom.

The coffee-white design of the classic living space allows you to create an unusually fresh and even, one might say, status look. Planks, which are flooring, in combination with a neutral carpet will perfectly complement the light atmosphere of the room.

With the widespread use of a light palette, the room may seem cold, so the designers recommend adding some "warm" moments (namely, wooden furniture, paintings and panels, the reddish tint of upholstered furniture and, of course, plants, the presence of which ensures the appropriate presence of nature).

Although white furniture is often not practical, it is very beautiful. The furnishings used in this color scheme are selected only if the chosen style requires it.

To fill the apartment with additional light and to avoid turning it into a kind of hospital ward you can use the following tricks:

• Choose one white piece of furniture as a "light spot" in the setting, which can be made from both textiles and leather.
• The color of the rest of the furniture set should be selected a tone darker relative to the general background, this will help slightly relieve the tension caused by oversaturation with white.

• It is advisable to create groups of bright and dark accents - armchairs, decorative pillows, a table or a chest of drawers can serve as an example.
• If you free the center of the room in an interior with light colors, this will help to visually maximize the expansion of the space.
• To get rid of the feeling of loss in space, freeing up the desired area, you can equip it with modular or corner furniture.

In their work, designers are not limited to this. They give recommendations for completing the interior with additional details: curtains, lamps, paintings, various decorative items. They bring a certain variety and make the design well completed.

Light colors in the interior will always remain stylish and modern. Such an interior does not require unnecessary costs, does not impose strict rules for design.

With all this, it should be borne in mind that light colors make it possible to widely improvise on the theme of design, since they are well combined with each other, which, however, designers successfully use in their projects. An apartment with such a color scheme is also suitable for freedom-loving people who feel comfortable only in a lighted environment.Everywhere, this option is gaining popularity in a wide variety of style solutions that are based on pastel and white colors.

In the style of minimalism, it is not entirely appropriate to use furniture of complex shapes or with elaborate decor. This design direction includes strict lines. In this case, it is highly preferable that there was precisely transforming furniture. This format is very convenient in small apartments, studios, "Khrushchevs".

Every interior style has some kind of textile element. Home comfort is created with the help of curtains, rugs, fabric paintings, cushions, bedspreads and other details. When choosing any of these details, you need to pay attention to the design style. A small apartment, decorated in the style of minimalism, does not fit a variety of textile details, while the curtains should look as simple and light as possible.

Small textile elements will help create a harmonious atmosphere in the apartment. As an example, the main shades of paintings or curtains for the living room are quite appropriate on the fabric of the rug or sofa cushions. The varied textile décor is ideal for a spacious apartment.

Curtains at all times have been a decisive element in creating home comfort, as well as providing obstruction of light in the bedroom. When choosing them, you need to build on the general style, a combination of textures and colors of other types of textiles. The most suitable color solutions for curtains in a light sleeping room are blue, milky, pearl, peach, golden.

In modern realities, planning the design of a two-room apartment using general design principles is often the best solution. The development of any project should include the characteristic features of each room taken. Everything is taken into account, from the shape of the room and the height of the ceiling to the nature of the lighting.

The hallway combines style and practicality. It is decorated with high quality materials and small furniture. Small spaces should be decorated with light colors, and floor coverings should be darker for practicality. The style of the interior is characterized by two features: calmness and restraint. But at the same time, he does not cease to be homely and cozy.

Let's give the following example.

Imagine the average family of four. The budget for the arrangement of the premises is small. For this reason, budget furniture and finishing materials were used. The corridor, along with the hallway, was made in light beige tones with elements of brown shades. The surface of the walls was treated with decorative plaster and lining for painting. The corridor and hallway area itself was divided by different floor coverings: the corridor is covered with laminate strips, and the hallway has tiles with an interesting pattern.

In order to somehow increase the space, there is a mirror at the front door, which will easily confuse not only guests, but also the owners. In order to save space, the pantry was completely removed, it is necessary to plan a system for storing outerwear and shoes (not to mention the little things).

The placement of cabinets that will be built into the wall will be excellent. To highlight them in the interior, you should use a drawing in shades opposite to the color of the walls. You can use glass decorated with frescoes or wood. And at the entrance to the kitchen, a wooden installation should be placed, it will successfully fit into the overall picture.

The kitchen is executed according to standard planning schemes. Due to their small size, in order to visually increase the space, doors were abandoned. The main colors were white and beige.

These colors will be used to decorate:

• ceiling;
• kitchen facade;
• partly furniture.

The walls will be adjacent. Since most of the tiles are light in color, the tiles will have most of the white with bright patterned inserts. The ceiling will organically repeat the overall pattern. It will be made of an LDF profile, with false beams arranged for painting.

The bedroom will be designed as 2 in 1, that is, a living room and a bedroom in one room.

According to tradition, the bedroom requires the use of a large double bed and bedside tables. But in our case, a large-sized corner sofa will be used in this role.

The living room part of the room will include a framed portal made of cornice with imitation of decorative masonry, and an electric fireplace will be located against its background. Opposite him is a wall decorated with photowall-paper.

For an example of decorating a classic living room in light colors, see the following video.

The first children's room for a girl gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the bright and colorful world of children. For her, pink plays the main role. Wall-paper "Butterflies" is placed on the walls. The main part of the room is decorated in shades of pink, but more emphasis is placed on geometry. The sliding wardrobe is made to order to preserve all the same lines and geometric shapes, but with the addition of blue and green shades.

In the second nursery, an atmosphere of fun and colors also reigns. If the first nursery is a room for a princess, then in the second, cartoon characters "house". Because of this, all the bright components look appropriate. There is certainly childish chaos here.

Since all children's furniture is small in size, the rearrangement can be carried out daily, and it is worth noting that it can be carried out directly by the owner of the room. In the event of guests arriving, there is an armchair-bed that fits into the bright environment.

The contrast of the style solution was chosen as the main design of the bathroom and toilet. Because of this, the bathroom is decorated with bright colors, and the bathroom appears to be restrained and laconic. Traditional tiles are used as material.

Another striking element is the bathroom curtain, which introduces some splendor. The bathroom is designed in a restrained manner. The main color is taken with restrained blue and white. Its main motif is made with geometric stripes on the tiles, white and black wallpaper and wall shutters.
