Lilac bedroom
The bedroom is the most intimate part of the house. I would like her atmosphere to be cozy and inviting. Today, the focus is on unusual shades, designs in faded and familiar beige tones are outdated and look boring. The lilac bedroom is an original design solution. This shade is unique and has a number of features.
Peculiarities
The lilac shade is not an independent color, as many people mistakenly believe: it is one of the most beautiful tones, included in the group of multifaceted purple. Although it seems simple, the lilac shade is complex, since it is based on a combination of strong colors, albeit diluted with white. The combination of two principles (masculine and feminine) makes the tone contradictory and attractive.
Due to the duality of the beginning, the lilac hue can be cold or warm. This feature must be taken into account when creating a design so that the overall appearance of the room is harmonious and comfortable.
With the addition of a note of blue, the lilac becomes cool and brings a sense of freshness to the interior.
A pinkish undertone gives a special festive (or even romantic) mood.
A neutral shade, in which the balance of the two colors is maintained, gives a feeling of peace and relaxation.
The choice of the concentration of the shade in the design of the bedroom cannot be accidental. It is necessary to build on the general idea in order to bring the right mood and atmosphere into the room. In addition, it should be borne in mind that lilac is a special tone, it is not combined with all the colors of the color palette: if you break the color harmony, you will not want to go into the bedroom.
The gentle shade is multifaceted, but more feminine. It is appropriate in a women's bedroom, hall design and girls' children's room.
It does not suit men at all, even if blue is noticeable in the shade.
Meaning
The lilac shade has long enjoyed success among the royal families and nobility of different countries. He is considered mysterious and magical, he symbolizes refinement and speaks of a strong nature, in whose soul a hurricane of feelings is hidden. The design of the bedroom in lilac tones is chosen by creative, selfless, generous and sensual personalities with a non-standard and eccentric character, but not devoid of impulsiveness.
The tone "breathes" with nobility, it provides color therapy, however, depending on the concentration, it affects the person and the general appearance of the interior. He can change his intended style from positive, hopeful, and joyful to sad (and even depressing). As the main accent of the bedroom, it cannot be the only design background.
At the very least, you will have to add two soft contrasts to it.
If you can see a bluish undertone in the shade, you should definitely add a warm shade to it. In addition, to make the design in lilac look brighter, you can add a few black or brown touches (interior details - for example, the color of the furniture, picture frame, armchair, dressing table).
What shades is it combined with?
The lilac shade is somewhat picky in the choice. To match it with a contrast, you can use a range of color combinations.
Opposite the lilac shade is yellow, next to it - green and orange. Since the tone is light, the contrasts should also be light.
Lilac goes well with the classic colors of the palette:
- White and beige convey an atmosphere of lightness, they add light, fill the bedroom with coziness and visually increase the space of the room.
- Brown is a great component in the interior. However, you need to use it correctly. It is not recommended to interrupt the main (lilac) tone, so there should be just enough dark color to highlight the lilac against the general background.
- Black - another successful color that has a unique ability to brighten any color of the palette. One of the best options is a combination of lilac and gray.
- Lilac color is successfully combined with gold and silver... These paints bring luxury to the design and emphasize the uniqueness of the idea.
How to apply?
There are two ways to apply color. You can paint or wallpaper walls, ceilings, and choose a method that uses color as accents. In the second case, you can convey color through furniture and any interior items (for example, chandeliers, curtains, poufs, floor lamp, paintings, wallpaper).
Interior
Accents can be not only obvious, but also emphatically modest (a discreet pattern on bed linen or blanket textiles, decorative pillows, curtains, picture elements and even candles).
A feature of the use of color is the ability to use two lilac tones: one is lighter, the second is slightly brighter. This will relieve the bedroom from dullness and "revive" the overall picture. A lighter tone can be emphasized with a brighter tone (for example, to add warmth and joy to the design, you can add a slight accent in fuchsia).
Walls and canvas
As for the walls, one of the most relevant modern techniques is the use of wallpaper. If earlier it was considered beautiful to decorate a wall with a single color and pattern, today this technique is outdated. It is better to use different shades - regardless of whether there is a print on the wallpaper or not.
Moreover, it is even more interesting if the design includes wallpapers of a contrasting color.
It is not very difficult to convey the beauty of a lilac shade: you can accentuate the area above the bed, add a lighter tone around the edges and make the transition smooth with a third color. Given this nuance, we must not forget that for the composition it is necessary to repeat the shades in the interior items.
If walls or a ceiling dominate, do not overload the lower part of the room with an abundance of colors. It is enough, for example, to convey harmony through curtains textiles, carpet pile or fresh flowers. It is easier to make the ceiling stretch. This way you can show not only the beauty of the color, but also the perfection of the surface.
Accent using a photo
Wall murals are an interesting design technique with which you can demonstrate an idea and convey the desired mood. Often it is the photo wallpaper that helps to create the right atmosphere and give out the style of the bedroom. For example, sakura blossoms on the wall and delicate porcelain vases indicate Japanese style, delicate pink and lilac flowers hint at romance.
The drawing can take up the entire area of one wall or be its small accent - depending on the size of the room, the chosen style and theme. Choosing wallpaper in lilac colors is right.
The shade itself does not allow aggression, so the theme should also be “gentle”.
If different motives are allowed in the wallpaper print (lace, stripes, geometry, flowers - and children have their own patterns), the most relevant themes for photo wallpaper are flowers, plants, sakura. No nude female bodies, sexuality is needed here: the general atmosphere speaks of the sublime. Such pictures will spoil the whole idea, because this is the "facade" of the room.
What should you pay attention to?
In order not to violate the harmony of the lilac bedroom design, it is worth considering a few nuances:
- the influence of color should not be excessive (a few accents are enough);
- you cannot add more than three contrasts to the lilac tone;
- it is necessary to emphasize the beauty and tenderness of the shade with soft contrasts - taking into account the compatibility of shades;
- when choosing a method of applying color, you should not use all the techniques to the maximum (this is devoid of taste and will overload the overall look of the bedroom);
- you cannot add the original tones of lilac (red or blue) to the design: they will destroy the pale lilac background and create a negative perception of the room;
- when choosing lilac photo wallpaper or ordinary materials, it is worth correlating the size of the pattern with the area of the room (the smaller the room, the smaller the pattern);
- this shade is able to change the visual space of the room, it should not be too bright (a light tone increases the space of even a small room).
Design ideas
Thanks to creative professionals, the design of a modern bedroom often resembles a real work of art. Everything is very beautiful, harmonious and leaves a pleasant impression.
With roses
If the area of the bedroom allows, you can make a shabby chic design in a soft lilac shade with roses. A delicate shade of lilac is taken as a basis, combining it with white and light gray. The wall at the head is decorated with blossoming buds. The ceiling, door, bedside table, mirror must be white. The rest of the walls can be painted with lilac paint to match the bed.
To make the interior harmonious, you should choose beautiful bedding and pillows to match the bed (or walls), hang white curtains with a lilac pattern and complement the design with two soft armchairs, as well as a cape on the windowsill. The finishing touch of the idea will be the gold trim of the chandelier, table lamp and door.
Children
You can equip the nursery in lilac-green colors. Since contrast can divert all attention to itself, it is used to a minimum, leaving the lilac shade the right to prevail.
To develop a child's creativity, it is enough to brighten one wall, leaving the rest white. Interior items (bed, desk, two cabinets and a block with shelves) are selected in white.
To set off the white, you can lay a carpet or just a light gray laminate on the floor. Gray will soften the transition between lilac and green.
You can add green along with a related lilac tone: for example, dark purple. It can be small curtains, upholstery of decorative pillows, bed linen pattern.
Fuchsia
An original bedroom design can be created with a moderate use of color. To show the beauty of the lilac color, you can take a diluted fuchsia tone as a basis, picking up bed linen with pillows, curtains and wallpaper over the headboard.
As a contrast, you can use a trio of different classic shades: gray, white and brown. You can decorate the armchair and accent wall (except for the painting) with a gray tint, the ceiling and other walls - white. The floor, bedside table, desk and door will look harmonious if their shade is light brown.
The lilac shade seems simple enough, but it does not give way at all: the size of the flower clearly defines the main role of the main tone.
Play of colors
One of the interesting design options is the smooth transition of shades of lilac. You can choose warm beige for the main color. In order not to violate the tenderness of the conceived composition, the beige color should be chosen in such a way that it is almost identical to the color of the furniture or floor.
For example, the beige color can be repeated in the gold finish of the original wardrobe.
You can choose a bed, cabinets, ceiling zones and floor in beige, and the walls of the room, a vase, bed linen textiles and decorative pillows - in lilac. The third shade will be white, which will decorate the front of the cabinet with a lace pattern, as well as several soft pillows. Lighting is a soft technique that ensures a smooth transition of tones in this design: the switched on lamps emphasize the boundaries as well as possible, but at the same time they connect them with a white and beige tone.
To "revive" the style of the room, it is better to choose pillows of different saturation shades.Without a bright touch, even the most attractive delicate design can become boring.
