CHOOSE THE BEST COLORS AND FABRICS FOR YOUR FURNITURE
If you are considering integrating a new piece of furniture into your interior, you probably have a lot of questions. You want to buy a new piece of furniture that will fit perfectly into your interior but also that will not go out of style in a few years. In addition, you must choose from a wide choice of colors and fabrics.
Luckily, we're here if you need some advice. Also, to guide you in your difficult choices and reassure you once the decision has been made, here are the answers to 5 frequently asked questions.
WHAT IS A SAFE COLOR?
When it comes to furniture, there are several colors that are considered “safe colors.” These colors blend perfectly with the vast majority of decorating styles, are unaffected by trends and make your furniture timeless.
BLACK :
Dark and deep colors blend perfectly with the majority of color palettes.
WHITE :
Light and soft colors go with everything.
GRAY :
Fresh colors add a contemporary touch.
BROWN :
Deep and natural, brown is a classic color that has proven its timelessness.
CAN I CHOOSE A BRIGHT COLOR?
Certainly ! There's nothing that says you have to choose a neutral color. A piece of furniture purchased in a bright shade can become the centerpiece that was missing from your interior. In addition, if you appreciate bright colors, the design of this piece of furniture will be timeless in your eyes. Indeed, trends come and go, but your style will never go out of style.
SHOULD I AVOID “TRENDY” COLORS?
Although we don't recommend choosing a color just because it's trendy, we recommend giving it a try if and only if you really like that color and it inspires you!
Did you know that color preferences are very subjective? Everyone has a different perception of colors. For example, some people may like a soft blue for its calming feel, while others may associate the color with a hospital gown and hate it. The way we perceive colors isn't just driven by our design preferences. Indeed, this perception is also shaped by our experiences.
LEATHER OR FABRIC?
The best fabric for your interior depends on your lifestyle.
Do you have kids at home or are you a little clumsy yourself? If you spill a liquid, leather is much easier to wipe up than fabric.
Where you live, is the atmosphere hot and humid? You may not like having your legs sticking to the leather of the chair when it's hot. In this case, fabric is more suitable.
Do you suffer from allergies? Leather is a hypoallergenic material.
Do you like bright colors and bold patterns? Fabric generally offers more choices.
