Posted by: Founterior , November 7, 2014

Living rooms are one of those functional areas in our homes where we spend most of our time when we are not at work. That’s why we have to make these rooms comfortable and beautiful because we need to enjoy being there as well as be able to relax and calm down after long working hours.

Today’s article is focused of the living room paint ideas since this is a great way to create unique interiors. There are many types of paints but the most popular are the blue and grey colors and their nuances.

We’d also like to thank Pro Painters Wollongong for their input and professional guidance in this post, if you’re ever after a Painter in Wollongong, definitely give them a call.

But what do we have to pay special attention to when we are to pick the right color for our every day living areas? Well, specialists conclude that we need to think about the type and color of furniture we have in the interior as well as try to match or distinguish the walls from the colors of the flooring.

Now, let’s have a closer look at the essentials and the impressive living room paint ideas.

I like blue because it give some kind of tranquility inside the room. Despite it’s association as a cold color, a recent scientific study shows that blue is one of the most comfortable colors for interiors. Well, it really depends on the hues – there are dark blues as well as you will find really pleasant pale nuances that simply makes it a joyful experience when you are sitting on a couch and enjoying the mild brilliance of a pale blue wall. A quick look at the images of living room paint ideas will give you a clue how you can paint or repaint your wall in blue.

Many people who like modern interiors go for black furniture. But you need to be very careful when picking the color of the walls because if not properly done, you may loose the entire effect of the dark furniture. In the images here I have chosen some great examples that display what are the best practices in choosing the way and color for painting a wall that should live together in a room with dark sofas, chairs, tables, rugs, etc.

Wooden floorings are one of my favorite things in interiors! They remind me of classy and expensive French mansions or Paris apartments. But they are also very pretentious when it is up to paint the room because if your choose the wrong color – the entire brilliance of a wooden floor disappears. Again, take a look at the images and I am sure that you will definitely notice what should and shouldn’t be done in cases where living rooms have wood floors.
