Fashionable wall painting in the bedroom

The bedroom is a special place in the house, where calmness, comfort, and tranquility should reign. That is why the interior design of the bedroom should be approached with special care.

In fact, it is a whole science - to choose the right color, choose the right combinations and place accents. Indeed, how correctly and harmoniously the interior of the bedroom is decorated, depends on how its inhabitants will feel in it.

When choosing a color scheme for the walls in the bedroom, it is important to remember that all shades have a different effect on the mood, and sometimes on the well-being of a person. It has been proven that:

• Green and yellow make you feel calmer, reduce fatigue, relax. In addition, surrounded by shades of green and yellow, a person becomes much more optimistic.
• Beige and pastel yellow - these are shades of comfort and peace of mind, contributing to the search for compromises in controversial issues.
• Turquoise - gives a feeling of freshness and lightness.
• Blue - improves sleep, bringing peace and a sense of peace with you. But it must be "diluted" with bright accents so as not to get a "cold" room.
• Orange - associates with warmth and comfort, improves tone and stimulates active areas of the brain.
• White - this is calmness, light and purity. However, a large amount of white in the interior makes the room cold and too "sterile".
• Black. Excessive use of this color will make the lightest room dark and gloomy. However, in most interiors, it is used for graphic views.
• Gray - is able to give the room a business look.

One of the trends in the design of a sleeping and resting room is the "3-color" principle, which involves painting the walls in three different tones. In this case, their combinations can be:

• Monochrome - using several tint options of one main color. For example, brick red and burgundy accents on a pastel pink background.
• Related. This option involves a combination of closely spaced color shades. For example, the interior is in blue-violet-pink tones or in green-yellow-blue color.
• Contrastingbased on color opposition. For example, black and white.

Choosing what color to paint the walls, designers advise using a special table, according to which:

• White goes well with any other color, but looks especially good with all pastel shades, gray, gold and in contrast to black.
• Gray. The most advantageous options for "neighborhood" - with yellow, red, orange, green, blue, white, purple additions. But with brown and gold it is better not to use it.
• Orange. It is harmoniously combined with any color, but most effectively with brown, green, purple, pink and blue.
• Yellow. It is used most often in combination with various shades of brown, orange, light green, white, gray, purple, but can also be in harmony with other colors.
• Pink. Ideal combinations with white, beige, gray, blue and any pastel shades.

When independently developing ideas for decorating the walls of the bedroom, in addition to color combinations, it is important to consider:

• Dimensions and shape of the room. In small rooms, light shades should be preferred, which visually expand the space.
• Decoration of other elements of the room (furniture, ceiling, floor).
• The location of the bedroom relative to the cardinal points (for the south, a colder palette of colors is selected, and for the north - warm colors).
• The number and location of windows (the less natural light, the lighter the color of the walls should be).

And, of course, the owners' own preferences and lifestyle.

When creating the design of a room, where they usually spend most of their time, professionals recommend taking into account the style orientation. Each style has its own rules and preferences:

• Provence "loves" light pink, milky and blue tones;
• eco-style tends to be marsh and brown;
• Baroque prefers pastel shades;
• in the classics, white is required;
• hi-tech is unthinkable without gray, black and white;
• minimalism welcomes a contrasting combination of black and white;
• for country, sand, light shades of yellow and brown are suitable.

When decorating walls in a country house or apartment, many try to avoid boring light images. And the designers consider this approach to design correct - for harmony and well-being, bright accents must be present in the room, which will emphasize the central pieces of the interior.

In the bedroom, the bed is the main element, so the emphasis is most often on the wall behind the headboard. For this, bright colors are used that contrast with the rest of the surfaces, paintings or unusual design.

Original design solutions offered by professionals in their field will help you choose the right bedroom design option:

• Spacious rooms for sleep and relaxation will look aesthetically and harmoniously with dark brown walls, partially covered with lighter furniture and decorative elements. Alternatively, only a separate section or one wall is painted in dark brown. The rest of the wall surfaces are decorated in the same color, but in its lighter shades.

• Another variant - gray or beige painted walls, on which bright flashes of other colors are applied. Instead of color accents, all sorts of decorative components are also used.

• A small bedroom with insufficient natural light will transform if it is decorated in white, creating accents in the form of paintings or panels in a minimalist style.

The interior design project is ready. It's time to choose a material for painting. Modern manufacturers offer a wide range of finishing coatings. But the most affordable and at the same time practical option has been considered for many years to be water-based paint on an acrylic or acrylic-latex base.

This paint has a lot of advantages that allow it to be used in the bedroom. She:

• dries quickly;
• harmless to humans and the environment;
• does not have a pungent specific odor;
• allows the walls to "breathe";
• not afraid of high humidity and resistant to mechanical damage.

When choosing a paint, it is necessary to take into account the fact that after drying its color becomes lighter, slightly changes the shade.

Painting walls is not only fashionable and beautiful, but also the simplest option for decorating walls in a bedroom. Therefore, all work can be done by hand without the help of professional painters. But here, the main thing is to remember that any coloring composition will look most effective and correct only on perfectly flat walls.
