The question “What color furniture to choose?” has always been and remains undeniably important. The color combination of furniture begins to excite us long before the renovation begins. The interior of an apartment or country house is a complete and unified ensemble of the style you have chosen. How to choose the right color? How not to make a mistake with a shade? How to combine wall, floor, furniture, textiles and accessories? The color options for furniture are so varied and numerous - how not to get lost? How to grab from a huge assortment what is right for you? You will read about this and more below.
Each color or combination of colors carries only its own inherent thought, which can quite strongly influence our mood. In addition, color affects the visual and emotional perception of the space of the room - it can make the room larger or smaller, more gentle or more aggressive; can divide into zones or wash away all boundaries. Warm colors (such as yellow, orange, red) visually make objects closer, warm, speed up the breathing rhythm and create a feeling of celebration. Cold (blue, blue) - calm, psychologically perceived as strict and mysterious. However, there are colors that have shades of both the cold and warm spectrum (for example, purple or green).
In a combination of several colors, only one should prevail. As a rule, it should be chosen for the main background of the room. For example, wall decoration. You can always “support” it with small accessories.
Three types of color combinations have long been considered the most favorable - monochromatic, harmonious and contrasting. Monochromatic means choosing shades of the same color (rich blue with pale blue). The harmonious type combines different colors that are close in spectrum and those that can be easily combined (red with orange, green with blue). Contrasting shades combine completely different, but quite comfortable shades that exist with each other (blue with yellow, green with purple). Combining three or more colors in an interior is a very difficult task and should be based on the principles of color selection - the so-called color palette. To help you, we offer you one of the principles of color selection: “Theory of harmonious combination of colors “Seasons”.
“Spring”: yellow (main), pink, white, red, purple, beige, green, blue. Recommended accessories: yellow metal.
“Summer”: blue (main), brown, white, red, gray, purple, blue, yellow, green, beige, black, pink. Recommended accessories: silver or silver metal.
“Autumn”: red (main), blue, purple, green, yellow, white, beige, brown, pink, gray. Recommended accessories: yellow and red metal (bronze and copper).
“Winter”: blue (main), red, black, brown, yellow, white, green, purple, gray, pink. Recommended accessories: white and black metal.
Let's talk in more detail about each of them.
Red color
Red color makes your furniture heavier and visually increases its width. This choice is not for the room in which you plan to relax, it is very dynamic and whets the appetite, so it is more advisable to choose red furniture for the kitchen, study or office. A red kitchen will truly become the heart of your home! It will be warm, sunny and comfortable to gather there in a narrow family circle, or a cheerful company of old friends. Red coexists perfectly with rich shades of green, turquoise, and aqua. The combination of red and brown looks sophisticated and elegant. You can get an elegant trio by adding beige. In interior solutions designed in the now popular high-tech style, red looks beautiful and even a little ascetic in combination with white, black, and gray.

Color combination in the living room
By following these simple tips from designers, you can independently create a unique style in your bedroom or other room. The right combination of different shades of furniture and decoration will allow you to create your own interior.
Combination of dark shades in the interior
Combination of textiles in the interior
Green color
Green is the most “natural” color, calming and relaxing. Green can serve as a background for a very large number of colors. Delicate shades will make the living area lighter and airier. Green looks very natural in combination with furniture made to match the color of wood. Gloomy shades of this color are suitable for dynamic and modern design - marsh, grass, dark olive. The listed colors will look succinctly in combination with red, burgundy, and the entire palette of white. The combination of green and soft beige will be extremely winning. Particular attention should be paid to the following combinations: green-white-blue, green-red, green-beige. Green will suit any room in your home! You will never get tired or bored!
Types of wallpaper
Types of wallpaper
Indoor walls can be covered with wallpaper of various categories - paper, vinyl, non-woven, liquid, fabric, and so on. Below we will briefly look at them.
Vinyl
The surface of vinyl wallpaper has water-repellent properties. Therefore, they are an excellent option for finishing a bathroom or kitchen. If you often cook in the kitchen, then the material must be washed periodically - say, 2-3 times a year (the best option is every season).
Vinyl materials are thick and do not allow air to pass through. Therefore, they can hide small irregularities or defects in the wall. However, air retention can be a disadvantage, since the room will be very stuffy, so such materials need to be glued in well-ventilated rooms.
Attention! Some manufacturers make vinyl wallpaper with perforations so that they allow air to pass through - this solution does not look very aesthetically pleasing. Therefore, you need to choose perforated material wisely.
Non-woven
Non-woven fabric is an excellent option for finishing the wall of a living room or bedroom for further painting. But it is not recommended to use it in the kitchen, bathroom or hallway - it absorbs water and debris well, and it is not recommended to wash or clean it (it will become unusable quite quickly).
The material allows air to pass through well, so non-woven fabric can also be used in a nursery - the wall of the room with this option will breathe well. Non-woven wallpaper is of medium thickness, so it can also hide small defects in the walls.
Liquid
Liquid wallpaper is medium durable, and with its help you can only get a monochromatic pattern (although you can paint the wall in several “colors”). Therefore, they are most often used to decorate bedrooms or technical rooms. They are also well suited for additional finishing of rooms with laminate on the wall.
Liquid wallpaper does not absorb dirt and water well, but it is not recommended to install it in rooms with high humidity. Therefore, such wallpaper should not be used in the kitchen, bathroom or nursery. They are also not recommended to decorate the house from the street side.
Paper
Paper wallpapers are distinguished by a wide variety of patterns, so they can be used to decorate any room - from the hallway to bedrooms or technical rooms. Although in practice they are most often used for finishing cottages and technical premises, as well as in the case of a limited budget for repairs.
After all, paper is a very fragile material that can be easily damaged or scratched. If damaged, paper wallpaper cannot be repaired - you only need to re-glue the wallpaper sheet. In addition, paper absorbs water well, so gluing them in the bathroom or kitchen is not recommended.
Fabric
Fabric materials are distinguished by high-quality patterns that will retain their brightness for many years. You can hang fabric wallpaper in any room. Water does not cause serious harm to the material, but the fabric takes quite a long time to dry, so it is recommended to use other wallpaper in the bathroom or kitchen.
The fabric reduces noise levels well, so this material is often used to decorate a bedroom. The fibers of the fabric absorb dust and debris quite well, so it is recommended to periodically clean or vacuum such wallpaper (at least 1-2 times per season).
Blue color
Blue is a calming, sometimes even a little depressing color. However, the spectrum of blue compatibility is very wide. The combination of dark blue and gold looks “expensive” and pompous. This color combination is suitable for the interior of an office or living room. Fine porcelain, textiles, a coffee table and aromatic tea draw the imagination - the dream of any housewife! Of course, no nautical style would be complete without blue. Medium and light shades of blue go well with white and beige. A strict blue interior will become brighter, warmer and more creative if it is diluted with yellow or orange accents.
Color combination in the apartment
If choosing the color of the walls to match the finishing of the floor and furniture according to the style is not a problem, then correctly combining tones in different rooms is a responsible matter. Incorrectly selected combinations will negatively affect a person’s perception, so here it is also worth adhering to some rules that will help you create a beautiful interior.

Living room: colors for relaxation
The choice of finishing shade and harmonious combination with the color of the furniture sets the overall mood of the living room. Since this is where a person receives guests and relaxes, the walls should not be flashy. A few examples of a successful combination:
- furniture: a light soft sofa without armrests goes well with pale armchairs and chairs, but it is better to decorate a glass coffee table in black to create contrast. Dark gray shelves for books will not distract from the overall composition;
- finishing of the floor and walls: gray laminate with a wood pattern combines well with mustard light wallpaper;
- accessories: a black openwork chandelier looks great in the center of the room, and it is better to hang lamps around the perimeter and above the TV. The curtains can be made turquoise, and a round rug of the same color can be laid near the sofa.

Nuances of human psychology
When choosing shades, it is recommended to take into account the psychology of human color perception:

A few more tips
How to choose the color of furniture? Keep the color scheme of the rest of the room in mind. This includes flooring, wall color, carpets, lighting and so on.
Buy furniture in basic colors that will never go out of style. To refresh the color scheme of the interior, add throws and decorative pillows.
Remember the main rule when choosing a color: from dark to light. Dark colors should be closer to the floor, gradually moving towards the light ceiling.
As designer Mark McCauley says, any interior space mirrors the outside world: “The exterior environment tends to be darker under our feet (the ground itself), the mid-range is dominant when you look straight ahead (buildings/trees) and gets lighter towards the sky.”
Notice how the colors are arranged on the color palette. Use several adjacent shades of brown, blue, etc. in the interior.
What color furniture should I choose if the floor is dark? Choose a sofa that is a shade or two lighter than the floor color. If the floor is dark brown, then furniture in coffee colors, from cappuccino to light sand, will look great against its background. A good option would be very light furniture with a black floor. This way you will play on the contrast of opposite shades, and more neutral accessories will help to mute such a difference.
Pink color
The pink color scheme is familiar to us when used to create the interior of girls' rooms. Pink benefits most when combined with white - this is a very delicate, but at the same time flexible combination. You can combine it with purple, but also quite carefully.

Light shades will serve to create classic interiors; dark - for more modern ones. Brown will perfectly complement any living space - kitchen, dining room, living room, home office.
Spectral circle and seasons
Combining more than three similar shades in one interior will be quite difficult. If such a task is set before an experienced designer, then he will find the optimal solution using a color ring.
The theory of seasons will also be a good help in this matter. She claims that in nature you can find pleasant combinations of different colors by following the color schemes of the seasons. For example, the spring season gives designers such pleasant ideas as a combination of yellow and pink, red and beige.
Black color
Black is very cold, it cannot be called cozy. The predominance of black in the interior can even cause an unpleasant feeling of anxiety, so you need to add it very carefully and in small doses.

Secrets of choosing wallpaper for furniture
Let's also look at a few important points that are important for the master to remember:
- The color and design of the wallpaper should be such that it either shades or emphasizes the color of the furniture. Therefore, they should not be completely identical in color (otherwise the furniture will be lost against their background) or be too contrasting (otherwise the wallpaper will draw all the attention of the person in the room).
- A surface with a variegated pattern or voluminous relief quite tactfully and non-aggressively draws attention to itself. Thanks to this effect, you can hide some furniture defects (for example, that it is very old or has minor damage or scratches).
- If you can’t choose the color of your wallpaper for a long time, but you have creative abilities, then buy non-woven fabric that can be dyed. In this case, you can hang wallpaper, and then paint it in the desired color or even make your own design.
Note! Use LED lamps to highlight a shadowed area of the room and highlight the natural color/pattern of the wallpaper.
Grey colour
Gray color is neutral and quite cool. Gray, like no other, is beautiful for a background. A kind of “tray” for serving bright and intricate accents. Gray is incredibly good in combination with green, blue, crimson, and bright red. Thanks to its monochrome, gray “shades” and at the same time emphasizes bright colors, creating a cozy atmosphere in the house. Medium gray goes well with pale pink, darker gray is suitable for a modern interior with red accessories.

Choosing the color of kitchen furniture
What color of furniture should I choose for the kitchen? Most of the kitchen space is taken up by cabinets and shelves, so choosing the right color is important. The shade of your kitchen furniture will affect the overall feel of the kitchen.
Pay attention to the kitchen design style. The choice of color for kitchen cabinets also depends on it. Typically, traditional kitchens look best with classic colors such as cream and white, and shades of brown.
For more modern designs, bright colors and contrasting shades work well.
The size and lighting will also determine which color of kitchen furniture to choose. If the kitchen is small, then most likely there is not enough light in it. Darker colors of furniture will visually reduce the space. The kitchen will look uninviting. Choosing cabinets in light colors will make your kitchen feel more open and spacious.
The color you choose for your kitchen cabinets will also affect the color of your kitchen walls. In order not to be mistaken in the combination of colors, give preference to furniture in neutral and pastel colors.
Pay attention to fashion trends. Today the trend is simple frameless kitchen furniture in warm colors. Wooden kitchen furniture has gone out of fashion. More and more people are choosing basic white and gray as colors for their kitchen cabinets.
