Brown and its shades: what is it?
In order to learn more about the influence of brown color on a person, let's dive into the depths of such an unusual method of alternative medicine as color therapy.
From history. The method of color therapy came to the modern world from no less mysterious India. The discoverer of such treatment is considered to be Dr. Ghadiali, although according to historical data, the ancient Egyptians used the juice of fruits of different colors to treat various diseases.
If you follow the knowledge of color therapy, dark brown curtains create a cozy, warm atmosphere in the room. But the use of light shades in the interior (for example, coffee with milk curtains) will bring visitors to the room a feeling of security, ease of being and spending time.
Of course, you shouldn't follow the Indian Vedas 100%, with all their mystery. It's better to collect the cream of the crop of this trend, dilute it with discoveries of modern designers and season it with common sense.
From words to deeds. When choosing a shade, pay attention to:
- the intensity of room lighting with artificial and natural light;
- the direction of the world that the windows face;
- room interior design;
- the color saturation of the room with other decorative elements;
- your own taste preferences and your body's reactions.
Brown is not limited to one shade. There are many varieties. For example, wenge curtains will fit well in a sunny room. Mustard curtains will look completely different. They are perfect for a dark bedroom.
In addition to these shades, there are several dozen more, each of which will bring special effects to the interior of a particular room. For example, coffee-colored curtains are popular among young people.
Next, let's look at what features of using shades of brown in window textiles should be taken into account in order to obtain an incredibly beautiful room design that will welcome all visitors.
Brown curtains in the interior: beauty does not require sacrifice
To properly decorate the rooms of a home with dark brown curtains, you need to take into account a number of factors.
- The color of the upholstered furniture in the room. A combination of a light sofa, armchairs, chair upholstery, as well as other cabinets and shelves, with darker curtains will look beautiful.
- The number of different types of window textiles. This refers to the completeness of the curtains. These can be complete products with a lambrequin, curtain and drapes, or a combination of these three components. Examples include Italian, English and Austrian curtains. Different completeness achieves different design effects.
- Finishing of walls, ceiling and floor. These three components are the most important when choosing the design and color of window textiles. Each plane adjoins the window and is its continuation, and therefore, a continuation of the curtains.
Experienced designers advise leaving the walls and ceiling light shades when using chocolate-colored curtains. It does not necessarily have to be white.
Living room interior
Guest room: this is what the living room is commonly called. Its purpose is to accommodate large and friendly companies, or to serve as a place for communication in a close family circle. Such an atmosphere can be created by chocolate curtains in the interior, photos of which can be seen below under the text.
It is preferable to hang luxurious halls with Italian textiles, which differ from the rest in their external expensiveness and rich appearance.
But these curtains will fit perfectly into the decoration of the hall.
- Textiles richly decorated with gilded or silver-plated patterns.
- Complete sets with translucent curtains and two-piece curtains that combine two shades at once.
- Lush, satin fabrics, belted with tiebacks with decorative trim.
- Numerous deep folds on the curtains, created with the help of tape and arranged in arcs with the help of hangers and grabs.
It is worth paying attention to the obligatory presence of a curtain. It is usually bought from tulle fabric of a translucent style. Soft colors will suit here. For example, a milky shade, or even coffee with milk. With the help of composite curtains, you can create various effects in the living room. So, in bright sunlight and direct rays, the window is completely covered with thick curtains.
Take a closer look at the variety of options for window decoration with textiles. Perhaps you will find exactly what suits you personally.
Chocolate color in the bedroom
The bedroom is designed to provide a full rest for its visitors. The idea of arranging the window opening with chocolate curtains is very successful. Having chosen a dense fabric, on sunny days you will not have to worry about bright rays. But do not forget to hang a curtain of milky shade.
For lovers of unusual design, the option of decorating one of the walls (usually the wall at the head of the bed) with a decorative composition is interesting. In terms of color scheme compatibility, the chocolate-milk tandem is compatible with blue breeze or sea blue. At the same time, chocolate-brown notes can be expressed in:
- bed linen;
- bedside tables and the bed itself;
- writing desk and chairs;
- wall paintings, photographs and other decorative compositions.
A wall of blue shade does not necessarily have to have a smooth texture. You can stick relief wallpaper or even choose wall plastic panels. The latter are sold in specialized stores of finishing materials. Panels can be purchased with textured patterns, shapes and figures.
Kitchen design
The kitchen space is full of all sorts of delicious things, which in turn emit odors. Unforeseen situations often occur when splashes from a fallen saucepan paint the kitchen interior in all the colors of the rainbow. Therefore, special requirements are imposed on kitchen textiles.
Brown curtains here should be moisture-resistant, not absorb odors and easy to wash.
These types of curtains are suitable for the kitchen.
- Roll products.
- Roman curtains.
- Vertical blinds.
- English cafe style curtains.
All these products are sold in light and dark brown tones. The same rule is important for the kitchen as for the living room and bedroom: a brightly lit room is hung with dark textiles, but a room hidden in the shadows is hung with light curtains. Shades of different varieties are suitable here. From dark coffee and chocolate to mustard and light beige.
