Colour defines this living room, from its deep red wall to the curtains and accessories.
Rich mahogany floor, red wall and natural materials like a sisal carpet give this room real vibrance.
Red is known to be an exciting color and effects us by increasing enthusiasm, encouraging action and self-assurance.
Concept
Final result
A sharp orange is used to accent the colour on the curtains and on the wall in the open plan kitchen. Bold tones of red create a cosy look and transform a bland space into a welcoming room.
Decorating with red needn’t be overpowering. I decided to paint one feature wall in red and keep the others neutral to balance out the intensity of the colour. The room’s atmosphere is softened with paper lamps.
