Bedroom interior in warm colors

A bedroom interior in warm colors can be soothing, or it can be vibrant and memorable. What palette can be used and in what style to decorate the room will be discussed in this article.

In addition to the standard color palette, designers use many different shades. For example, you can often find a bedroom in coffee colors. The shade of coffee with milk looks especially stylish. Almost the entire brown range can be used as the main color. The exception is orange and red. In large quantities, they can negatively affect the emotional state.

From the red range, pink pastel is suitable as a base. Burgundy can be used in a contrasting combination with muted pinks or pastels. The rest of the shades of red are suitable for decoration.

Yellows and purples can be warm or cold, so they must be matched separately. Using these colors as a design basis is not recommended as they can be annoying and depressing. They can be used as bright accents or in pastel shades.

In addition, the color range can be:

• monochrome - with a predominance of one or more similar colors, for example, cream with beige;
• contrasting - based on a combination of several colors that differ sharply from each other in shade or intensity;
• saturated - two or more different colors are used, but approximately of the same intensity.

Now let's look at a few examples of different colors.

Let's start with the interior in a monochrome palette. The design is based on beige. Most of the surfaces are decorated in this color: walls, floor and bed textiles. White and brown act as complementary accents.

The next design has a fairly rich palette consisting of red, yellow and red-brown. In this case, it is important to carefully choose the shades so that they harmoniously complement each other. In addition, it is necessary to correctly place accents. In this case, it is a yellow pattern and edging on the curtains, golden furniture fittings, a red and yellow screen behind the headboard.

The final interior is a prime example of a contrasting palette. Dark brown furniture and curtains stand out against the light-colored walls. The decor is selected in the main colors of the design and perfectly complements the furniture and decoration of the room. Note that it is imperative to add bright accents to such an interior so that the design does not look boring. In this case, it is a color picture and greenery of natural flowers.

Among the historical, ethnic and modern styles, there are many that can be decorated in warm colors.

Let's start with the historical ones. The colonial style is characterized by natural shades: yellow, sand, terracotta and green. For the romantic style, the predominance of milk, cream, light brown and nut colors is inherent. The use of burgundy, brown and milky colors is typical for interiors decorated in classicism, as well as in modern art deco.

Minimalism is also suitable from modern styles, since this style does not have clear boundaries in the color palette. Basically, it is characterized by creating space in the room through a minimum of furniture and decor. Therefore, it can be decorated in any color scheme.

Art Nouveau is characterized by a creamy chocolate scale and green color. The latter can just play the role of those small cold accents that should balance the warm palette. Interior in Japanese and Oriental style will look good in warm colors. The main palette of the interior is in red and brown tones.

The predominance of warm colors in furniture and decor is also characteristic of the Russian style:

• wooden furniture;
• various national patterns, for example, Khokhloma with an abundance of red;
• textiles with red embroidery;
• gold samovars.

Finishing depends on the chosen style. Classics, romanticism, art deco and oriental style are embodied in wallpapers and their combinations with painted walls. Japanese style and minimalism involve plain painted walls. Some styles such as classic, art deco or romanticism make it possible to use stucco and moldings on walls and ceilings.

Almost all styles have wood flooring. In a modern interior, the floor can be not only wooden, but also covered with floor tiles or carpet. The latter will be quite appropriate for a bedroom.

Almost all styles involve the active use of wood in furniture and decoration. But for some (art deco, minimalism or modern), metal and glass objects can be used. For example, a table with a glass top on metal legs or a metal frame for a mirror.

Furniture, as well as finishing, is selected based on the chosen design style. Bright accents in the interior are created by the decor, which also depends on the design style. For classic interiors, these are carved wooden furniture with textile upholstery, curtains and curtains made of thick fabric, decorative bedspreads and pillows.

Textiles can also be used to decorate a headboard or canopy. This is especially true for the romantic style. Bright accents in such interiors are created by curtains, pillows, bedspreads, paintings, moldings or decorative vases with bouquets of flowers.

For design in ethnic style, it is necessary to use furniture with national characteristics. Japanese is characterized by simple furniture with straight lines and angles. Oriental-style furniture is usually decorated with carvings with national ornaments. Japanese-style décor consists mainly of brightly colored bed linen, national graphics on the walls, vases of dried flowers, or miniature bansai trees. Oriental - characterized by national ornaments on textiles and furniture, decoration of walls and headboards with fabric, various national objects (chests, decorative plates on the walls, stylized table lamps and chandeliers).

Minimalism involves pieces of furniture of a simple geometric shape without any decorative techniques. This style requires a minimum of decor, so the role of bright accents is most often played by bed linen or several decorative items (empty vases, discreet panels or table lamps without a lampshade and ornate lines).

Art Deco and Art Nouveau furniture can be of the most unusual and quirky shapes. For these styles, the furniture itself is already an element of decor. Art Deco beds often have a high, soft headboard, while Art Nouveau beds are characterized by flowing curved or intertwined lines. Art Deco is also characterized by the use of other expressive objects (original panels, crystal chandeliers, mirrors, etc.).

In the bedroom, lighting plays a special role. Firstly, almost each of its functional areas requires its own local light:

• headboard or bedside tables;
• dressing table;
• wardrobe or dressing room;
• workplace.

Light can create a cozy, relaxing atmosphere. Secondly, decorative lighting will help create an original design. So, with the help of additional lighting, you can highlight certain decorative elements, balance the dark color of furniture or finishes, and also create a separate element of decor.

Now let's look at some interesting designs in warm colors.

Let's start with a rich oriental interior. Its base is dark brown. It is balanced by light furnishings, white carpet and linens, and plenty of natural daylight. The saturation of the palette is given by the red color of pillows, a chandelier and a floor lamp. As in most oriental interiors, the room is decorated with a variety of decor items: a bas-relief over the bed, stylized table lamps, ornaments on curtains, a picture, a figurine, bright decorative pillows.

A Scandinavian-style bedroom can also be decorated in warm colors. The main color is a pleasant shade of coffee with milk. It is harmoniously complemented by wood furniture and textiles of a calm yellow color. And the white color of bed linen, windows and skirting boards dilutes the warm range and brings in a slight contrast.

Another ethnic interior is made in Japanese style. The traditional dark brown palette is offset by a light floor, white upholstery, bright lighting and light décor elements. Orange textiles and green plants enliven the interior.

Finally, consider a light interior with yellow accents. The combination of several shades of yellow and beige creates a versatile palette that looks surprisingly light. And the abundance of textiles and upholstered furniture creates coziness.
