Color your interior, the magic of color schemes

Are you looking for a way to transform your interior and create a unique atmosphere? Then you’ve come to the right place! At Myrna Interior, we believe that the right color scheme makes all the difference. Today, I’m taking you into the wonderful world of color and showing you how the perfect color combination can brighten up not only your home, but also your mood.

Why is the right color scheme so important?

Color has a huge impact on how you feel in a space. Think of a warm, cozy living room where soft tones radiate calm and comfort. Or an energetic office where bright colors stimulate creativity and productivity. By carefully considering which colors you choose, you can create a space that fits your lifestyle perfectly.

A smart choice of color can also give the illusion of space. Dark shades make a room intimate and cozy, while light colors create a sense of openness and calm. It is therefore essential to think about what atmosphere you want to create. Ask yourself: what is the function of this space and what emotions do you want to evoke in yourself and your guests?

Tips for the perfect color combination

  1. Start with one base color: Choose a main color that forms the basis of your interior. This can be a neutral shade, such as gray, beige or white, or a striking color that reflects your personality. A neutral base gives you the flexibility to play with accent colors.
  2. Add accent colors: Accent colors provide liveliness and contrast. Think of cushions, paintings, rugs or even a striking piece of furniture. Try to choose one or two accent colours that contrast nicely with your base colour, so that the space does not become too busy.
  3. Use the colour wheel: The colour wheel is a useful tool for determining complementary or analogous colours. By choosing colours that are next to each other or opposite each other on the circle, you create a harmonious effect that can be both calm and dynamic.
  4. Consider the incidence of light: The way in which light influences a colour should not be underestimated. Natural light changes the appearance of a colour throughout the day. Therefore, always test with colour samples on different walls and in different lighting conditions first.

Inspiring examples for your interior

Imagine that you choose a warm, earthy base colour in the living room. Combine this with accents in terracotta or deep green. The result? An inviting, natural look that fits perfectly with both a modern and classic interior. Or how about a playful approach in the bedroom, where you combine a calm blue-green base color with cheerful yellow and orange accents? This way you create a space where you can really relax, but that still has an energetic touch.
