  • Current color palettes in the living room: neutral nuances will also remain in 2020!

The decision for a neutral color palette in the living room has always been a very successful one. If you are looking for a completely neutral look, then you can pick out different shades of the same color and combine them with each other. Your living room will look subtle, inviting and very bright. For example, you can design the room entirely in white or perhaps combine this basic tone with gray, beige, cream or ivory. This is how you achieve current color palettes that stay trendy for a long time and make your home appear stylish. Of course, you can combine neutral colors with natural materials. You can be absolutely sure, you can’t go wrong with it.

However, our advice is: reduce the number of colors if you don’t want to set accents. However, you can vary greatly with the materials. Use different types of surfaces, textures, and patterns. And don’t be afraid to use white as the dominant color in the living room. White is a very versatile color that has a strong visual impact. However, many homeowners feel that it is not particularly practical after all, as white surfaces make every small stain noticeable and require special care. But white looks exquisite in a living room. The same goes for other current color palettes in neutral tones such as dove gray and ivory for example. Use these colors to create a sleek, modern living room design with a Nordic influence.

 A dramatic look can be achieved with the black stripes and other geometric shapes that are used as a contrast.

  • Current color palettes 2020 are unimaginable without warm shades

Colors that are very bright and vivid can be annoying to the eye and make a living room less comfortable and inviting. In comparison, soft and muted shades are ideal for creating a cozy environment. Try using warm, neutral tones like white, golden yellow and various shades of brown in your living room design and complement this color palette with a single focal point that includes contrasting, cool tones. Warm colors radiate warmth, they remind us of a beautiful sunset or make us think about the splendor of colors in an autumn forest. So decide on those nuances that best suit your style and taste and try to skillfully combine more intense and subtle shades. In this case, you are guaranteed success.

Warm shades are one of the current color palettes in the living room 2020.

Dark tones in the living room are very trendy this year

Black, dark green and a much darker shade than the classic blue, but also other dark colors have become indispensable in the living room interior this year. However, these are generally considered mysterious and are usually not used in living spaces. However, they can have a positive effect on the facility, e.g. B. because they make the room very cozy and also very practical. A nice strategy is to complement all of these dark hues with a few light and warm accents. If you don’t fancy black, combine black and white. Black and white living rooms are impressive and extremely elegant. This is a timeless color combination that you can adapt to any style. However, add an accent color or two.

Also, this way you can easily avoid your living room looking too simple. A work of art, a piece of furniture, a floor carpet or a lamp can be used as an accent. In this regard you have a lot of leeway and can let your creativity and imagination run wild.
