- white;
- brown;
- terracotta;

Calm color combinations will help to avoid excessive contrast in the design of the room. Stylish Options finishes of the main surfaces of the living room can be seen in the photo.
Grey-white color scheme, harmoniously complemented by bright shades, is suitable for the urban design of the living room. Diluting cold tones with warm carrot, apricot or pumpkin will help make the room warmer and more festive. By itself, the urban design of the living room can look extremely unfriendly. But the addition of warm tones will help create a more welcoming atmosphere.

Room lighting
For dimly lit rooms, lighter shades, such as peach or apricot, should be preferred; for spacious living rooms, rich carrot and terracotta shades can be used.
For a bright and warm living room, decentralized lighting should be organized. The best option will use LED backlight installed around the perimeter of the ceiling and floor. Create a directed stream of light will help Wall lights or floor lamps, which should be placed directly in the recreation area.
Advice: for living rooms that serve as a dining room, you can use round lamps hanging over the dining table.

Space zoning is especially important for spacious living rooms combined with a dining area. As dividing elements, transforming decorative structures, highlighting or darkening zones, fabric screens, multi-level ceilings or podiums. It all depends on the imagination and financial capabilities of the owners. The most economical is the zoning of the room with the help of lighting or fabric screens. More expensive, but also more effective, is the division of space with the help of podiums and multi-level ceiling structures.

Correct design the window opening in the hall plays a significant role, since the appearance of the room as a whole depends on the decoration of the window. Drapery window openings dimly lit rooms should be light, and for living rooms located on the south side, you can choose dense and dark, rich brown or terracotta colors.

vzstudio.ruThe orange color is more than complex in the first place because there are a huge number of its various shades. It can be orange, ocher, honey, brick. When choosing an orange color, first of all you need to understand what style you are going to go with this color. Therefore, let's start with the main thing.
- We define the style. If the living room is designed in the style of pop art and we want to effectively “shout”, then we can safely stop at a bright, saturated orange orange.If the design is quite calm and we just want to add a feeling of warmth, then a complex mix of orange with the right dirty ocher shades will do.
- Limiting functionality. Orange, even in its calmest incarnation, is still intrusive and too energetic. Therefore, choosing it for the living room, you should understand that it will be impossible to sleep in this room. I would not recommend considering a shade of orange even for the dot design of a studio apartment.
- We choose a couple. If you look at color circle, then as paired shades opposite orange, we will find purple and lilac. Shades, frankly, irrelevant. Therefore, I recommend mixing orange with blue-gray shades.
- We're going into a small form. Orange as the color of fire hearth quite appropriate in the living room, but you should not “set fire” to the entire interior. Our goal is to create an energetic atmosphere for a public place where people communicate often and for a long time. This can be achieved by highlighting, for example, the ornament on the pillows, the lenses on the chandelier, small parts in the design of accessories.
- Revision of the environment. Orange is a stimulant, even, if you like, an igniter. It will not suit people in whose life, like mine, for example, there is a lot of color as such. If you are engaged in design, printing or any other bright creativity, orange in the interior will most likely begin to annoy and even overwhelm you very soon. But for those of us who are forced to spend most days surrounded by white office walls, orange can become best friend and will give completely new sensations in long-familiar realities.
Juicy, sunny and cheerful orange color is perfect solution for the living room. Such color solution creates a truly positive mood, makes you smile and enjoy the world around you.
Orange mood guarantees excellent psychological well-being for the whole family, but, like all complex bright colors, orange tone is too in large numbers can be tedious. That is why designers recommend that when creating an interior in tangerine or carrot colors, pay attention not only to style compliance, but also to color harmony.
Living room in orange: orange mood
The orange living room is an eternal holiday. Psychologists say that decorating a room in such colors guarantees the creation of the most warm and comfortable room for staying. The tangerine living room will be the perfect place for family vacation, friendly parties and just quiet meditative evenings alone with yourself.
The activity of the orange color makes it a desirable element in the interior of phlegmatic, balanced persons who need external emotional nourishment. But always optimistic sanguine people will not give up a corner of positive in their home.
IMPORTANT! Too active or hyper-excitable people should avoid an abundance of orange in the interior, but the point use of this positive color is not only acceptable, but also recommended - to maintain a positive mood.
Decorating an orange living room is not the most difficult task. If the designers have chosen the main color combination, then it remains only to correctly place the accents. So, for a living room in such colors, the basic rule should be observed: either a neutral background and bright details, or a bright background and neutral details.
- The first option seems to be preferred by most of the inhabitants, because it looks innocent and uncomplicated. For example, gray or beige walls, light floors and bright practical furniture are a classic look for an average living room in orange tones. This approach to design makes it possible to get a calm and harmonious interior that will not irritate, but will give a great mood.
- A bright background (and this, as a rule, walls) makes the room more expressive and complex. This approach is optimal for medium-sized rooms with windows to the north, because orange walls able to replace the often absent or insufficiently bright sun. But at the same time, excessive juiciness in the finish should be balanced by concise in color and design decision filling: minimalist set, modular cushioned furniture, strict lamps and simple cotton textiles without bright prints and patterns.
Colors - companions for orange tone
The complexity of choosing a harmonious combination for an orange tone lies in its depth and unchanging warmth. No matter what color is chosen to go with this juicy shade, orange will still remain warm and sunny. The abundance of this tone in the interior of the living room makes the room more comfortable, warm and positive, which is important for cold or rainy regions.
ADVICE! Orange is a complex and deep shade that needs more than just right choice style of the room, but also in the competent use of companion colors. A correctly selected shade for the neighborhood will make it possible to shade the main color, to achieve an indescribable game of halftones from it.
Among the most harmonious combinations with orange, it is worth highlighting:
Style variety of orange living room
In addition to choosing an orange shade and finding the perfect companion for it, it is important to choose the right style for the living room. The variety and availability of style solutions often makes one doubt and choose for a long time which of them will most fully and clearly reflect the owner's views on life, his perception of reality and his preferences. The orange tone is not easy on its own, so it is not worth using it in an arbitrary style. For this color, the following options are most preferred:
An orange living room is a positive and sunny solution for an apartment or a private house. Using this warm and bright shade requires efforts to correctly choose the style and direction, but the result will be invariably positive: the orange tone sets the mood and charges with love of life.
