Help with choosing colors for my new house!!
hace 11 años
We are building, and I need help choosing colors for my walls. As you can tell from the pics, I have a LOT of wood throughout my home. Family and friends say to go with neutral colors, but I'm worried that neutrals will wash out the wood. I want there to be a contrast between the wood and wall, but I don't know what would look the best...
I have a lot of reds and sage green colors in my decor. Please help! ;)

PROhace 11 añosLots of white walls, with just an occasional wall in light to medium green. With that much wood, you need the relief of white to the lighten the room and the whole feel of the house. But feel free to have colorful rugs and art.

(3) comentariosHi 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...Ver másPls help with floor plan design
(0) comentariosGm everybody, My wife and me are trying to design our new kitchen, and we are a bit concern about its location in the house. This is a DIY project, so we are looking for opinions. As you can see in the picture, we are creating the kitchen room at the left bottom side and keeping a garden at the left upper. Our first idea was to locate the kitchen close to the living door (upper in the picture) but we would like to mantain the garden. Thanks in advance for any kind of help!!

(13) comentariosBuenas 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!...Ver más
hace 11 añosI have the same color wood in my home. I didn't want to use white either. I've been using greens and a little yellow to tone everything down. I went crazy in my kitchen with purple, but I love it! It's a great color to pair with the wood, in my opinion. Hope my pictures help you out! You have a beautiful home!!

I decided on Dusty Olive by Behr (has a slight grey tone) for my living area, Exploring Kaki by Behr (has a green tone) for my bedroom, Collectible by Behr (a shade of brown) for my bathroom.
For the kids...I can't remember their exact colors off hand. But, for my daughter's room, her floors are turquoise, so I almost match that on 3 walls and did one wall Georgia Peach by Benjamin Moore (it was only fitting since her name is Georgia!) their bath and my 12 year old son's room are a tan color. My son's floor is also stained turquoise with the continents stained on it with brown. My trim is Apple Core by Behr. It all looks really good together! The only pics I have are of the living area and Georgia's room...
