Let's play a game. If you had to pick two colours to decorate your home with, which ones would you go for?

Would it be black and white? Yellow and grey? Blue and white?

Shades of blue with white, and splashes of lots of colour in paintings, cushions etc

Hi Cristina, your table looks very beautiful however I discourage to have such furniture at home because of the mirrors. I work as a feng shui consultant and I know that the mirrors have some kind of power and one should be very carful placing them in the house. My personal opinion is to have a mirror in the place where the mirror can´t see you while you are resting or sleeping because in long term it can have negative influence on you. The mirror was created to look at it and it shouldn´t be used extensively also because of the reflections of the light. The human eye naturally is used to see the light coming from certain directions, if it comes from the direction which is not used to the light, especially artificial one, it may effect your vision or have negative influence on your mood. I'm talking about something very subtle which sometimes may be felt after some time. Another thing is that I always encourage people to don´t use repetitive patterns in the house just simple irregular forms and calm and worm colours which make the space more cozy and more natural. If you need more help with the rest of your house please let me know. I could make a 3d visualisation of your place to shaw the layout. Best \Marcin

Armario / vestidor dormitorio casa 1850

Buenas noches gestión estética! Muchas gracias por tus comentarios e ideas aportadas, la verdad es que estamos muy ilusionados con el proyecto pero también es cierto que es una reforma de cierta envergadura por nuestra intención de actualizar y hacer más cómoda la vivienda (en la actualidad no cuenta ni con ducha!) pero a la vez intentar mantener los elementos estéticos de la época que le confieren el encanto que tiene al piso. Agradecemos cualquier asesoramiento ya que las reformas las emprenderemos nosotros mismos, sin ningún arquitecto o interiorista que lidere el proyecto, contrataremos directamente a los profesionales que han de ejecutar la obra, por lo que nos surgen muchas dudas de la mejor opción estética / económica / práctica en diversos elementos. Adjunto otro elemento en el que no llegamos encontrar la opción ideal, hay 2 salas que están separadas también por la misma marquetería que en el dormitorio y unos armarios a ambos lados. Nos gustan estéticamente (no en ese color quizás) pero seria más practico que las 2 salas no estuvieran separadas (una estaría destinada a comedor y la otra a sala de estar), por los que nos planteamos o eliminarlo todo (con dolor en el corazón) o una opción intermedia como vaciar solo la parte central, o la parte central y uno de los laterales. ¿Consejo? Por privado (si se puede hacer esto aquí) podría enviar plano completo del piso y más dudas que tenemos! Gracias!

What do you think about this? - The contrast between wood and Stone

The contrast between wood and Stone Dare to create elegant spaces by combining these elements, by harmonizing wood and stone, in different colors, a balance is achieved, which can give to notice a slightly rustic style, but with a lot of elegance and modernity. There are infinite spaces and surfaces where you can cover with stone. From kitchens, bathrooms and balconies, as well as exteriors of your home providing rustic touches, but connecting you with nature. Definitely these two natural elements achieve the perfect balance.

Wood is a very warm and natural coating, which is durable and easy to maintain. Contrasting the rusticity of wood, natural stone brings colder sensations, with eclectic characteristics and close to minimalism. What do you think about this?

Depends which country I was with and the light of that country. In a warm country the base would be black and white. In a cool country it would probably be taupe and pale grey - again as the base but with strong colour accents

If it had to be grey then apple green. I love a warm sunset tangerine with light tan.

Yellow and Grey! I know the trend has been around for a while now but I have a serious addiction to yellow.

sensible answer ASVinteriors! i choose black and white so I can blend into lots of shades in between. dont think many rooms with just two colors work. You need three at least

Blue and white with accent colours in furniture rugs etc. Although my love of colour would find me going crazy wanting to use more than just blue and white.

Blue and White. I'm loving blue at the moment, I've painted my North facing living room a very dark blue, Farrow and Ball Hague Blue, and the fireplace surround and alcove shelving is white and I think it looks gorgeous. I love teal too, does that count as blue? I've painted the cupboards in my utility room teal (Fired Earth's Southbank) and I'm so pleased with it! Go on people, be brave!

Black and White - because they are striking but also allow you to add and subtract almost any other colours later if you want.

White and wheat. So many shades of white to suit any light and space, and the warmth and neutrality of a camel/biscuit shade is a good solid complement and together they are a foundation for colour in upholstery, furniture, everything else. If your tastes change or you have a turnover of renters then there's lots of opportunity to change and add character with objects - better not to narrow down that choice by using a more unusual palette.

@jen2hands, I've seen teal as 'teal blue' and 'teal green' - depends on those birds I guess? Well it might not be straight-on blue.... blue/green..... anyway...post a pic of your dark blue room...

lola4723.....I've never been a fan of just black and white together, always thought it looked a bit harsh, but I think your photos have changed my mind...amazingly well done and every room looks fantastic. I especially like the black alcove by the chimney breast - an idea I may steal when I next re-do my lounge. Gorgeous.

Thank you Melanie maybe you'll give it a try. You can always add a bit of colour with accessories if you think it's too harsh. I have a red heart chair in my bedroom.

Sounds good Lola....I like silver/chrome accessories at the minute; I think they'd look good with black and white. If positioned correctly they would bounce more light around. Thanks for sharing your photos :)

Impossible - I couldn't do it.
I once read a great comment on this site describing a house like a 'box of crayons'. It was used in a negative way, but it's the best way to describe my home. Every room is (and will be when it's finished) a different colour, each room is separate and not open plan and lead on to (what will be) a white hallway. And I'm only going with white because it has no natural light :-(

Laura - that sounds good to me too! if you've read my discussion with Lola then you'll know I'm debating black and white as her photos look wonderful. My lounge and dining room are open plan, so need to flow into one another; but all the other rooms are separate like yours, so nobody would know the colour scheme unless they were in there...2 of the bedrooms are children's rooms, currently very dark blue on one wall and near white on the other 3 and the girls' room is different tones of lilac. All my doors are white 6 panelled ones, so the hallway/stairs and landing could all blend in to my black and white living area. I love reading everyone else's ideas on this site as it gives my inspiration a bit of a kick start when I'm undecided...an English man's home is his castle after all and we are all individuals. I liked the reference to 'a box of crayons' too - all those lovely colours to play with and choose from! But I think my downstairs will be trying the black and white look out. Especially since I realised my kitchen is black and cream with chrome accents anyway! Thanks to all of you for your input and ideas :)
