How to make a bedroom in lilac tones

The bedroom is the place where you want to feel as relaxed as possible. When creating a feeling of comfort, the color scheme of the room plays an important role. A lilac bedroom may seem like a bold decision, but the variety of shades of this color leaves the owner with a wide choice.

Lilac does not have to be bright - on the contrary, in the bedroom it is more appropriate to use only light or muted tones. A bright room in lilac tones will create a feeling of lightness and freshness. At the same time, muted lilac creates a feeling of reliability and calm.

In the 21st century, plastic is often used in apartment decoration. This is due to the variety of its colors, relatively low price and long service life of the products. One way to decorate a room is to order a multi-level PVC ceiling with a lilac level or inserts.

It is advisable not to make the entire space above your head lilac in apartments and houses with low ceilings. However, the modern world offers a lot of opportunities to smooth out the effect of lack of space, while decorating your home in the right colors.For example, make the ceiling multi-level, or lower the floor.

Lilac decorative plaster will look very impressive. The plaster does not have to be smooth. It can also form a relief that is pleasing to the eye, or decorate a room, complementing the interior with an artistic composition. If you add patterns with oriental or natural motifs to the bedroom walls, you can create the impression of a fairy tale settling in the room.

In the assortment of good finishing stores you can find plenty of stylish lilac wallpaper. High-quality lilac wallpaper in muted shades will be associated with luxury. A completely different feeling will be created by light lilac. This color will bring a little youth and carefree into the room.

It is not necessary to cover all walls with the same wallpaper. You can advantageously zone a room by adding interesting accents. Even one wall can be divided into several parts by carefully setting the boundaries of the colors.

If the assortment of the nearest stores does not have the necessary shades of wall coverings, you can buy wallpaper for painting. The required colors are selected from the catalog of tint colors. The consultant will advise in what proportion the color should be mixed with white to achieve the desired result. To make the walls look more interesting, you can choose wallpaper with a textured surface, and after painting, cover it with glossy glaze paint.

For independent work on walls, it is better to use a roller. In delicate places, use a small brush. If you intend to zone the space in a room by painting the walls in different colors, you will need masking tape. The tape will evenly limit the area to be painted.After completing the work, on one side, it is re-glued on the other side of the color border, and the procedure is repeated with the next paint.

A color scheme

Light shades visually expand the space, while dark shades reduce it. The smaller the room, the more light colors it should have. Otherwise, a suffocating atmosphere may reign in the room, and you will have to forget about a relaxing holiday.

This color fills the space, even if used in the most faded and muted shades. In order not to visually overload the decor in the room, it is better to make white the main color. It goes well with any colors, does not exert pressure and provides wide freedom for experimentation.

Three primary colors are more than enough for one room. You can interestingly combine colors such as:

• White and beige are a beautiful and unobtrusive, “natural” combination.
• White and pistachio. Green goes great with lilac. However, you shouldn't fill the room with bright shades of green. It is better to opt for light and light green options.
• White and silver grey. This combination will look great in a room intended for sleeping. Silver and gray shades create a pleasant and calming impression. Plus, they can look stylish and inconspicuous at the same time.
• White and light pink. The rich pink color will absorb all the unique properties of lilac. However, you can use pink in spots, or choose it in lighter colors.
• White and pearlescent. The last color will bring the smells of the sea and a feeling of lightness into the room.
• White and blue. It must be light blue, devoid of flashiness and toxicity.Otherwise, the colors will conflict and the effect they produce will only be annoying.
• Brown and dark blue. A calm combination that will envelop the owner of the room. It creates a feeling of depth, peace and security.

It is better not to include bright colors in the design as the main ones. Accents are placed carefully, especially in small rooms. Red or black in combination with lilac look very unusual and expressive, but their influence should also be smoothed out as much as possible by adding a large amount of white.

Attention! It is very difficult to combine cool and warm shades. After completing the finishing work, there is a high risk of feeling out of place. Such combinations give rise to dissonance and rejection, and the desire to leave the room.

Furniture selection

In a lilac bedroom it is better to place white furniture, unless its colors are the main ones. Even elegant furniture made from thin materials will visually take up a lot of space and attract attention. Furniture shapes the perception of space in the same way as the decoration of the room.

Decorating a bedroom in a vintage style involves using lilac as the color of textile elements. Lush poufs and curtains, bedspreads and upholstered furniture can be lilac. But the cabinets, tables and floors are not.

Vintage involves following the canons that originated from previous generations. Painting furniture pieces in bright colors was rarely done in the past, mainly due to the lack of the necessary paints. Before ordering lilac furniture, think about what effect you want to achieve. An incorrectly selected piece of furniture can destroy the entire style set during finishing work.

Accessories and additional items

After the choice of primary colors is completed, we must not forget about placing accents. It is accessories and additional elements that complete the overall picture and create a feeling of home. Items such as bedspreads, carpets and curtains are best chosen in primary colors. To highlight the room favorably, it is enough to slightly change their shade.

Smaller objects can be any color. However, it is advisable to maintain the overall tone of the room. Each bright accent will be very noticeable, so limit their number.

Attention! You can place green plants in a lilac bedroom. Pure green natural shades go well with lilac. Curly and large mirrors will enhance the impression of freshness coming from the lilac color.

Lilac is the result of mixing purple and pink, this can be used to advantage and can be seen in the photo. Don’t be afraid to use a lot of small and bright elements made in shades related to lilac. If they look disharmonious, you can always simply put them in the closet.
