Brown interiors are suitable for people in need of peace and relaxation. An interesting fact is that if a person is prone to experiences, then he will subconsciously choose brown clothes, as he will feel comfortable and calm in it.

When choosing this color for your rooms, be careful. If the room is small, then do not overload it with this color, otherwise the room will become even smaller and will look gloomy. To avoid this nuance, a combination of brown with other colors, most often with white, is used.

Brown and white

We have repeatedly spoken about the ability of white and light interiors to visually expand boundaries, but I want to note that even the presence of a dark tone, such as brown, will not prevent white from pushing the boundaries of the room, provided, of course, that it will dominate.

If white is made dominant, it will expand the space, despite the combination with brown

The neutrality of white allows you to use it anywhere, a accent in a darkened brown corner, for example, in the form of a floor lamp or decor, would be a good option.

Brown and pastel colors

For the interior of the bedroom, it is best to combine brown with bed tones. Then the room will look softer. Unlike combinations with white, pastel interiors are warmer.

In relation to the living room, a pastel palette in combination with brown is also often chosen. That is, what do we get? The brown interior is an atmosphere of reliability and security. But in order to avoid gloom or a pressing sensation, we dilute the atmosphere with soft pastel notes. In addition, not all people like dark colors, and among pastel (especially as a background) they will feel more comfortable. After all, after all, the living room is intended primarily for guests.

For guests to feel comfortable in your living room, use a combination of brown and pastel palettes

To complete the composition, the interior can be decorated with bright decor or interesting elements.

The best pastel color to combine with brown is beige. It is considered a related shade, since it belongs to the same gamut of colors as brown. But they cannot be called similar, because they are still at a significantly remote distance from each other. Therefore, building an interior along this line, one can safely expect a magnificent result.

This is due to the fact that smooth color transitions are observed here, there are no obvious antagonisms and contrasts. The atmosphere is soft and calm.

Brown and blue

Brown-blue interiors look slightly cool, even if there is not much blue. The neutrality of brown appears in this union even as an amplifier of cold sensation. But this is not a minus for the interior, many people love just such an atmosphere, here you can feel the power of the earth, solid and reliable.

Also, do not forget that blue is the color of the sea and the sky, if you correctly place accents and choose the appropriate decor, you can create a room similar to a ship rushing along the waves.

Gold interiors: brown and yellow

This is truly the richest and most refined combination. Both colors complement each other, and the interior looks like gold shimmering in the sun. If you need to show your respectability and prosperity, then this union is exactly what you need.

To make the interior look rich and elegant, tan gamma is the most

But it all depends on the performance, brown-yellow interiors can not be made so elaborate, but calm and warm. It will be cozy and easy.

But the union of yellow and brown can create a light atmosphere, it all depends on the pitch

To create a harmonious atmosphere, designers recommend using several different shades of both colors.

Brown and green

This is a very harmonious couple, like a tree and its foliage, like earth and grass. Here, a natural aura will envelop the room and its inhabitants.

Many designers like to work with green precisely in combination with brown. Because, despite the many shades of green, in this union it does not matter, any options will be good.

But there is one small rule: if we are talking about a brown-green interior, where besides these two colors there are no others, then with respect to green it is better to choose an apple-green hue, here it will be more appropriate.

Brown and orange

In this interior, harmony and balance reign. These two colors perfectly complement and reveal each other. This union is suitable for people who need a warm and comfortable interior, not devoid of energy.

There will be no disharmony, no matter what shade of orange is chosen. It is considered successful to use a chocolate baseboard and if there is a fireplace, then it can be done in the same shade and all this against the background of the orange floor in a shaded version. Black accents are well suited to such a union, since an orange background, for example, would perfectly soften both colors and emphasize them favorably.

But not everyone can decide on orange wallpapers, and in this case, you can use this color as an accent, that is, make chocolate elements on orange furniture, doors, drawers, a chair seat, and so on. And let the background be pastel.

And if someone wants to make wood furniture in a chocolate shade, then be prepared for a gloomy effect, but here the orange color comes to the rescue, which will bring cheerfulness, leaving the furniture at the same time harmonious and reliable.

The most important rule of the brown-orange interior is a light background, if you take a dark one, then gloom cannot be avoided, even orange will not help.

Brown combined with lilac (purple)

This tandem is recognized as the most calm and relaxing. Therefore, it is not suitable for the kitchen, living room or nursery. Unless in the living room light shades of these colors will be used, as well as an ornament or drawing.

So that the combination of brown and lilac was not gloomy, you can take their soft shades

Thus, we see that it is better to use this combination for a bedroom where purple or lilac will create a certain mystical atmosphere, and brown will emphasize the mystery of the situation.

And if you want to make the room the embodiment of relaxation, then you can even take the darker tones of both colors. In such an atmosphere, I do not want to move or even think - complete peace.

If you take the rich tones of brown and purple, then the room will be the embodiment of relaxation

You can also use this duet for the bathroom, but in order to neutralize the too melancholy impression, it is advised to dilute the interior with other colors, for example, white and some accessories of a different tone.

In general, this union is elegant, but too relaxing, if this is the goal, then go ahead. And if you want to make the calming effect a little softer, dilute it with other tones.

A lot of colors and tones are suitable for brown, the main thing is to combine them correctly so that the effect is not gloomy and overwhelming, but cozy, strong and reliable.
