Sometimes it can be difficult to choose between two beautiful coloured curtain! Solution – easy have one of each to create a truly unique look to your interior! This fun and funky way to dress windows is a real eye-catcher and a great way to add a wide range of different colours into your living space.
Adding colour into your home by using two different coloured curtains at the same window!
Pink curtains one side and yellow curtains the other look wonderful because they are within the same hue of colour. This is where the complimentary colours and clashing colours have their dividing lines. Whilst there are many colours within the same hue which team and compliment each other, colour clashing remains a popular ‘new way’ to deliberating break the rules about the use of colour!
With this in mind those who have always struggled with lack of colour coordination can now say there ‘foul ups’ are deliberate and in many ways opens the door for people to create their own unique style within their home, which is one of the major principles of achieving stunning bespoke interiors.
The colour people choose to use also says a lot about the type of person they and colour therapy and therapists are gradually influencing the colours people choose in their homes, with many cultures having their own colours which are used in their homes to bring good fortune, wealth and happiness. Interiors which are based on Feng Shui principles also use specific colours to create harmony within homes and offices.
It is also ideal for children’s bedrooms, as they can have a free reign on the colours they love and it won’t matter if in theory they should never been seen together! Using purple and orange together is a good example of colour clashing, which those who were young in the late 60’s and early 70’s would have loved to have bedrooms using these two colours, but for most it was a definite no, no!
In many ways there are many boundaries which no longer apply within the world of home interiors. It was not that many years ago when boys always had blue curtains in their bedrooms and girls pink and whilst this stereotypical outlook is gradually diminishing it is rare to find bay pink in a little boy’s bedroom!
Playing with colour is about breaking boundaries and the ‘rules’, enabling people young and old to have colours which they actually like rather than what they think they should have merely to comply!
