We imagine it on the walls, but color can also be used through furniture, accessories to brighten, calm or enliven a room. How to use the colors of the moment.
Sage green in the bedroom
It is undoubtedly the autumn-winter shade of 2022-2023. Since prison, we’ve witnessed a boom in greenery that brings nature into the home. This soft, subdued version is perfect for anyone who wants to play a subtle card. According to paint brand Benjamin Moore, which offers it under the reference October Mist 1495, sage green is calming and stimulates creativity. It is therefore perfect in the bedroom for a restful sleep and waking up with an energetic spirit. In addition, it emphasizes the other colors, which allows you to play with the bed linen.
Bright yellow in the office
There’s nothing better to give heart to work than yellow, sunny, energetic, energizing the office. Especially when the days are getting shorter and the light is less. Obviously, we don’t play it in total form, but in punctuation, on the walls and on the furniture. And we don’t forget to have fun with it. Because yellow also rhymes with playful spirit. So we allow ourselves to be inspired by Ikea, which knows how to skillfully juggle this bright hue in a space that stimulates body and mind.
In the living room: white
The hoop is the textile that’s all the rage. Ultra chic in its white version, it brings elegance and transforms a simple armchair into a real cocoon. Let’s face it, white isn’t easy to live with as a family, but it’s a must at the moment. There is no furnishing brand that does not offer its sofa in white bouclé. We can’t resist bringing comfort and light to the living room. For example, with the Pavlova sofa from Maisons du monde.
Klein blue in the living room
The 60th anniversary of Yves Klein’s death is an opportunity to bring home his incredible blue. Very present, it obviously cannot be used as a general look. Correct option? The carpet. The House of Pierre Frey, in collaboration with the Yves Klein Archives, has produced three carpets in tribute to the artist. The Ant 125 model brings the spectacular glow of Klein blue into the living room. Artistic, stunning and enlightening bias.
Black in the dining room
Set aside received ideas. Black is not synonymous with depression and gloom. As in the wardrobe, it is a pledge of timelessness and elegance. This fall, it’s used as a “highlighter” with light strokes mixed with blond wood that adds luminosity. A very good example is Habitat’s Okami table, which has a tapered leg made of natural wood and a black-stained top.
