How Can Furniture Color
Affect Living Room Decor?
|
Color more than shape or texture has an irresistible effect
over our mood and perceptions. While red will create an
impression of warmth and passion, cool watercolor shades
will imbue us with the feel of a cool pool in a shady glen.
Furniture color, therefore, has a profound effect on the
look and feel of your living room decor. Pillows can then
act as accents or floating bubbles of color against the
backdrop of your living room furniture. In the color palette
displayed in this delicate, modern living room decor, faded
greens, reds and coppers mingle together to create a warm,
circular living room that invites and relaxes like a soft
summer breeze.
By contrast, crimson living room furniture wraps the soul in
warmth. European wicker furniture casts a spell of elegance
over the room. An ornate stone fireplace rekindles memories
of days long gone. A gilded mirror repeats the pattern of
furniture placement, but doing so in opposite, stretching
upward in elegance.
Bright with light, the windows fill the room with daylight
subdued only by the almost medieval bunting-style valance.
While the pool green rug underlies the scene in soothing
coolness.
It is a living room ideal for warm summer afternoons and
dreams of elegant European cities.

On the opposite side of the spectrum, where all colors
become one, white living room furniture creates a blank
canvas that highlights the minutest color displays. Every
pillow stands out like a flower in the snow. While perfectly
symmetrical black and white photography seems to speak as if
the faces beyond were alive.
In this way the color of your
furniture can affect your living room decor, creating
different rooms as you play with different color schemes and
ideas. I hope these images have colored the black and white
images in your mind and inspired you to try something new in
your living room decor.
