Use dark colors to create depth for space
Many people love dark colors but worry that they will make the house space cramped and stuffy, so they often avoid using them when designing houses. In fact, if you know how to coordinate reasonably, dark colors not only do not narrow the house but also help increase depth and sophistication.
An effective way is to use a color palette with about 20-30% dark colors and 70-80% light colors. The contrast between light and dark will create a three-dimensional visual effect, helping the house space look deeper, more spacious and more lively. Monochrome light colors are also very flexible, easy to combine with many different materials.
Combine materials to avoid feeling monotonous
Using a light color throughout can help the house look airy and spacious, but if not careful, it will easily cause boredom. To overcome this, you should combine materials with diverse textures or patterns.
Stone with rough surfaces creates a natural feeling. Wood with straight grains brings warmth. Floral tiles help create vivid visual layers. Glass and mirrors create an interaction between solid and hollow
In addition, decorative lights or spotlights can be used to emphasize architectural lines and increase depth for the house.
Expanding space by color connection
Using the same color or similar shades in many different areas helps the house space to be seamless, avoiding the feeling of being divided. When the color is expanded uniformly, the view is also guided more naturally, thereby creating a feeling of spaciousness, airiness and comfort.
