Interior decor doesn’t just involve choosing paints and furniture. Making all elements come together and look cohesive is a vital part of good interior design. Often individual pieces of furniture look good in isolation, but once they are set up in any room, they do not fit in. Many factors can affect why your wall paint design may not match your furniture. But it can be solved using some simple techniques. In this article, we will discuss just that. Here are some of the easiest and best ways in which you can match your wall colour to your furniture
Plan in advance:
Before shopping for furniture or deciding on a wall painting design, you must have a clear vision in your mind as to what aesthetic you are looking for. This will help you be on the right track and pick pieces according to your style. You can also make use of software to click pictures of your room and visualise better. This will give you a better idea of how each piece will fit into the entire look.
Add accent pieces and walls:
Accent pieces and walls are elements that directly stand out in a house, such as a single dark wall, an eclectic piece of furniture, painting, etc. Such elements can help greatly in tying the entire space together. For example, you can add an accent wall paint of the same colour as your sofa set. This wall paint idea will easily make the room more cohesive. Use colours from the same family to match them together. It also helps if you use the correct tones of colours. For example, every colour is either warm-toned or cool-toned. Mixing them up in one room will make it look cluttered.
Sleek Wood Coatings:
Wooden furniture is a part and parcel of every Indian home. And very often matching the wooden furniture with the walls is difficult. However, with the new Indigo Sleek Wall Coatings you can easily do this. Here is how Indigo Sleek Wood Coatings help:
a. Wood stain: Wood comes in various textures and colour shades. If your current furniture does not match the wall colour, wood stain is a great way to change the colour to match the walls. Wood Stain also ensures your furniture looks fresh and new. It is very easy to apply, and does not require any professional help.
b. Sleek Base: Base coats are vital to ensure that your wooden furniture stays fresh and protected from dust, UV rays, and other environmental factors. These factors can ruin the way your furniture looks and degrade the overall look of your house. Often, Indian homes have various kinds of old and vintage furniture, handed down from generations. Thus, protecting it becomes even more important. The Sleek base is available in 14 natural wood shades and requires 1 to 2 coats only.
c. Sleek Sanding Sealer: Sanding can leave a rough texture on wood, which makes it look raw and unfinished. This can take away the natural shine from wood and make it look dull. A sanding sealer can help fill the grains in wood to give it a smooth texture, making it easier to use and look more appealing.
Don’t Ignore the floor:
Flooring also is a key component of your house. People often ignore the flooring when designing their house. But you must ensure that your flooring also matches the colour scheme and furniture. For example, wooden flooring often does not go well with extremely bright colours. Also, if your wooden flooring is of a certain shade of wood, it is best to have the furniture of the same shade as well. Mixing wood shades and textures can lead to a mismatch in colours.
Soft Furnishings:
If you are on a budget and cannot change a lot about the walls or the furniture, the best way to make the room look more complete is through soft furnishings. Soft furniture includes, carpets, rugs, curtains, sofa cover fabrics etc. With the help of these, you can reduce the friction between the wall colour and furniture. For example, if you have a light wooden sofa, adding a dark and bright sofa cover over it can significantly enhance and change the look.
