Which two colour combination is best for living room?
What is the best color for living room? Purple and pink, teal with white, yellow with grey, yellow with blue, green with teal, and brown and white are some of the best color combinations for living room.
Green is the color of harmony and renewal. Because it echoes the hues of the natural world, it's one of the best paint colors for living rooms. If you don't have the space (or the energy) for a bevy of house plants, green walls will be the splash of life your living room needs.
Begin with one color, and look across the color wheel for its direct complement — instead of choosing that color, pick two analogous colors on either side of it. So, for example, if your first color is yellow-green (AKA: chartreuse), look across to red-violet, but choose violet and red as your second and third colors.
Two-tone painting creates visual interest by using two colors on one wall, divided horizontally, for example. This technique allows you to be creative in your rooms' color schemes and can even make neutral colors more interesting by using different shades of the same hue.
If the room gets lots of light, select the palest shade in your color palette as the primary wall color. If the room is naturally dark, select the darker of the two medium tones as the primary wall color. Choose the opposite extreme for the trim, which includes baseboards, door frames and window frames.
Cozy colors are saturated tones, and they tend to be dark shades of a warm hue, such as red, orange, and gold. A cozy color also can be a neutral, such as chocolate brown, caramel, fawn, or charcoal.
If you combine two primary colors with each other, you get a so-called secondary color. If you mix red and blue, you get violet, yellow and red become orange, blue and yellow become green. If you mix all the primary colors together, you get black.
Red and orange seem to be the clear winner when it comes to eye-catching colors. These colors tend to stand out and are therefore used on many warning signs or safety equipment. Yellow is another color that comes in a close second to red and orange in popularity.
The rule of 3 colors is simple: pick one primary color. Then, pick two other complementary colors. See the example below. We picked a main hue (a variation red), and complemented it with two different colors.
'Cool greys are best paired with cooler colour schemes, such as blue, green, and light purple, while warm greys better complement reds, oranges, and yellows. For fans of the monochrome look, incorporate different shades of grey, alongside white and black, to create depth and visual interest.
'A light-toned sofa in neutral colors, such as beige, cream, light gray, or white, can create a sense of openness in any room. These soft hues reflect the natural and artificial light that enters the room, making the space look brighter, airier, and more spacious.
Now how many combinations can we make? Two colors can make eight different combinations. So all together, using yellow and red, we already have 8 different combinations we could make. If we had 3 colors, we could make 27 combinations.
