Gray curtains for a stylish design.
Luxurious color is perceived ambiguously, causes opposite associations, and is marked by undeservedly notoriety. What is his reference to you identified with? With boredom, a gray mouse, gray at the temples, gloomy weather, or with the impersonality that life offers? But what if you shift the focus of attention from prejudice to familiar things, and first look into your closet? Perhaps the benefits of a neutral tone can be convinced by an elegant office suit that matches the business image, silver jewelry, light gray mother of pearl pearls or luxury marble in home decoration.
In men, “metallic”, along with black, is considered dominant in clothing, on the gadget cases and is preferable in choosing a car. If you do not associate its psychological influence with stereotypical comparisons, the result of subconscious perception of tone will be an emotional tandem, expressed in an aesthetic bonus and a soothing effect. So why not take advantage of the silver gamut in the design, maximizing its potential.
Gray color is not just a consequence of a successful combination of white and black, taken in equal proportions, from varying the ratios of which, the degree of saturation and depth changes. It is prone to a universal combination with a variety of rainbow ranges.
In modern designs, silver is used without hesitation, and is presented in all its beauty of spectral shades: from pale purple to beige tones. The exception is saturated graphite, depressing gloom, and therefore used in rare cases in close accompaniment to a collection of vivid attributes.
And as practice has shown, it is difficult to find a more grateful basic tone than mother of pearl steel, although at the same time its apparent prostate is insidious - in the sense of a combination with pure colors. Even in the classical example, the gray-white duet has its own nuance: you should use a snow-white-boiled color to avoid a yellow tint with not expressed whiteness. In this color scheme it is allowed to paint the walls, with the prospect of their further bright design or to arrange a group of upholstered furniture on a light beige background, and drape the windows to match the upholstery.
Nuances in the design of the living room
The interiors in burgundy, lilac, and purple colors, regardless of the functional purpose of the room, are appropriate to supplement with gray curtains. At any perimeter, they organically fit into the color space or retain the intrigue of a monochrome design.
Ideally decorate the room the curtains on the windows are a couple of tones lighter than the walls, and the groups of furniture that match the upholstery are upholstered. Most of all, curtains are in demand in large rooms with intensely penetrating light fluxes from panoramic windows. Also appropriate in a room with well-designed artificial light sources. This is especially true for techno, hi-tech and spacious Scandinavian designs. They are easily perceived by the eyes and create the illusion of spaciousness in the fusion of the crystal radiance of glass, crystal accessories and chrome details.
- the introduction of white furniture and derivative shades of pure color into the bright space will perfectly complement the ensemble of “mother-of-pearl” curtains;
- the actual silver tone of the curtain can reflect the brilliance on objects with a smooth surface located nearby;
- choose the elegant color of window drapery for furniture with terracotta, brick red and pink upholstery, and you will not at all doubt your own aesthetic taste;

- if you avoid the emphasis on curtains, but can not imagine a window without silver curtains, translate the “arrows” on the sofa trim, made a tone darker.
Simple decoration will help to dilute the uniformity of the paintings: sew wide laces to the bottom, duplicating one of the colors of textile accessories, like sofa pillows or hang a large openwork nylon mesh on top. It will add volume to the atlas, and make the design more interesting.
Volume curtains or curtains can serve as material for curtains, depending on the stylistic idea. Luxurious baroque or classic will require heavy velvet, eclecticism or constructivism prefer a brilliant satin, linen is typical for country, with now fashionable metallic thread and a number of other natural fabrics.
In the decor of the kitchen, curtains in such a tonality are also relevant. For this room, it is advisable to opt for cold shades of metal, as they successfully dilute the traditional light palette of walls. An excellent solution would be an ensemble of identical material on chair covers and small details, like decorated bottles, napkins or a tablecloth. Furniture set of any color will be in tune with the color scheme.
Youth trends
There is a rule that is usually adhered to in any design: saturated floor, white ceiling, furniture a tone or two different from the bottom plane, but not merging with the walls. With all this, modern design does not reject dissociating combinations that are interesting in simple combinations against a modest color space. We are talking about the acidic shades of pink, lemon and saturated orange. A gentle addition in the form of light pearly curtains dilutes obsessive saturation, and harmonizes the overall background. Such a solution is relevant in youth designs.
If you want to dilute the faceless monotony, a small correction is taken into account. It will be prudent to adhere to homeopathic doses in attracting aggressive tones and limit yourself to 2-3 additional colors.
For hi-tech, make a diagram of slate-colored curtains, black and white interior items with a modest amount of red or yellow accessories. In this case, scarlet will fit better than intense orange. With a greater introduction of paints into cold interiors, the interior will be visually fragmented into segments. In other designs with the prospect of avoiding asceticism in decor, designers surprise with the uniqueness of creative ideas and combine up to 5 colors.
Soft and sophisticated seems the gray-pink interior in the bedroom for the girl. And there is absolutely no need to make the walls flawlessly pink in order to achieve harmony with the textiles of any of the silver shades. It is enough to indicate the tone and paint the perimeter in a light color, bearing in mind the prospect of subsequent wall decor.
Slate-colored curtains in the nursery are perfectly complemented by contrasting accessories that can make any design original. A rack with toys and bright posters on the walls, rainbow applications, a colorful carpet will solve the aesthetic problem. For a boy’s room, the calm symbiosis of gray and blue is very handy. One of the options is cornflower walls with zircon terriers. They will successfully balance the space, making the nursery seem bright and very cozy.
Bedroom Drapery Ideas
The combination of curtains with the interior will help not only to feel the energy of colors, but also affect pleasant physical sensations. At the same time, the texture of fabrics will influence the perception of design. Due to the structural features of the textile, the shade can be deeper or more tender.
It is difficult to believe, but gray is not annoying and is perceived by everyone equally positively.Therefore, the presence of a single-sounding textile for a bedroom is more than appropriate. Curtains can differ from the walls by tone, contain beautiful prints that repeat the colors of accessories and furniture, and combine design.
The interior of the bedroom and living room in a delicate gray-purple design looks flawless and stylish. In such a combination, metallic textiles are used and fragments on the furniture facade in identical colors are welcome. Massive brilliant hardware complements the compositional solution. A bedspread and curtains with a cold shimmer of silver will perfectly decorate the bedroom. By the way, a living room with a similar drapery and silk-screening on the wallpaper in the same color will elegantly emphasize the good taste of the owner of the house.
And yet, if you do not welcome the idea of the predominance of “metallic” color, focus only on drapery. But if you perform the design in color gradation, the effect will definitely please. For example, such a scheme is proposed: paint the walls with a shade of "monsoon", hang textiles in the tone of "Gainsborough", throw a blue bedspread on the bed, and lay the same rug on the floor.
Mother-of-pearl tones on the bedroom windows are always in harmony with the darker anthracite or marengo and solo against the backdrop of delicate blue walls and a light set.
The scheme built on the tandem of gray and "coffee with milk" is relevant for the bedroom and children's room. In this case, it is important to use a striped decor, bright patterns on textiles or a bedside ottoman. The idea will complement the silver wallpaper with a glossy ornament.
Each of us has our own preferences and beliefs, but if we strictly adhere to the proposed schemes and abandon our own interpretation, the predicted result will not please with uniqueness.
