The decoration of the house will reflect your personality, and you will be able to express your creativity by adapting your choices to your budget.
Here is your house out of the ground, you will now bring a personal touch by decorating your interior. Psychedelic or bucolic, rustic or modern, all tastes are in nature. It is the first pitfall to avoid, too great a mixture of styles which would quickly become unbearable. You have to think of the decor of your home as a whole, avoiding too “thematizing” the different rooms, both in terms of style and materials used. Always keep in mind the 3 major parameters that are your needs, your lifestyle, and as we mentioned, your personality.
A tough choice: color
This is the essential question to ask yourself, in fact the color of your rooms will determine all your subsequent arrangements. There are a number of aspects to consider. You have to look at the piece in its entirety, its volume, its shape. The choice of the dominant color must first be made according to the proposed space. If the room is large, color changes to create rhythm are welcome. Conversely, it is preferable to opt for a single color in a reduced space. Studying the color of existing coatings (tiles, parquet, paneling, matt or glossy, etc.) is also very important. Think about the brightness and orientation of the windows. For example, if they are arranged to the north, we will opt more for warm colors. The color can also highlight a fireplace, a table, beams, or on the contrary put them in brackets. It is also necessary to work according to the tones of the adjoining rooms in order to find complementary colors to give a dynamic to the whole. Finally, don’t forget to consult your family members: their tastes and expectations will help you narrow down your choices. When it comes to the home decor on a budget you need to be specific on these matters now.
The meaning of colors has an important psychological dimension
The warm colors represent enthusiasm. Red, which means strength, passion and forbidden is difficult to use for an office area for example, unlike yellow. Orange gives peach and brings creativity and communication. The cold colors have a refreshing, zen and soothing effect. Blue and turquoise evoke rest, and give an impression of space. Purple invites to meditation. Green, located at the center of the chromatic spectrum, breathes nature.
Black and white is colors widely used in decoration. They each have a positive and negative aspect. Black evokes mystery, seduction, but also death. The purity and innocence of white oppose its cold and impersonal side.
Current trends
The “nature” atmosphere is currently the most requested. For example, we use shades of sand colors with more lively touches such as a green foam panel. You can also play with plant stickers and opt for light oak furniture, matt bleached oak parquet, linen.
- The “bohemian decor” atmosphere, full of contrasts, uses very rich and deep colors, such as purple and eggplant or bright colors like anise green and raspberry.
- Orange, tangerine, mocha, chocolate are also very “trendy”. We dare to combine styles by introducing a very warm decor that goes well with zinc-plated furniture, a very large suede sofa.
- The “baroque”, “city / countryside” or even “design” atmospheres are also in tune with the times.
- Finally, trinkets and more personal items will happily complete the set.
