Painting the walls in blue creates a backdrop against which you can play with the colour of the furniture, ranging from pastel colours to neutral shades or daring here and there with some brighter shades such as yellow or orange…

If you are afraid of being too daring by painting your walls blue, you can opt for a more ‘classic’ style, i.e. combine white walls with blue furniture, such as armchairs, a sofa or other objects, and combine the various existing types of blue: Indigo, Ottanio, Avio, Oceano etc…

The main characteristics of this colour are:
-it adapts well to all styles, both classic and contemporary;
-it can be combined with a wide variety of materials: marble, wood, metal, even difficult ones!
-it adapts to all rooms in the house, from the kitchen to the living room, from the dining room to the bedroom…
-The colour blue influences the mood. Being the colour of the sky and the sea, blue has a calming effect.

It is not recommended to use dark blue in large quantities in large rooms: you may cause a depressing and gloomy atmosphere. Moreover, always make sure that the room is well lit by natural light, which, when combined with blue, will create bright and elegant shades.

Decorating the Living Room with Red

Decorating the living room with red: the colour of passion adds a touch of exclusivity to the room.

All lovers of red should know that very little is needed to brighten up a monochromatic and characterless environment. If your living room is therefore monochromatic, you can decide to add small touches of colour, such as the upholstery of an armchair or a sofa, to give more personality to the space.

Get the look with Vermelha chair

So how best to use red in living room furniture? A good strategy, as we were saying before, is to choose this colour for single elements: for example for a chair, a sofa, a desk, a sideboard or a pouf. Alternatively, if you are not afraid to be daring, you can decide to distribute red in small doses throughout the room: for example, choose red cushions, curtains or carpets with a red print.

Get the look with Rose chair

As red is a warm colour, it tends to make a room smaller: for this reason, in a small, dimly lit living room, it is better to avoid painting all the walls in this colour… Red is an energetic and lively colour: for this reason, it is better to use this colour only in the living area and not in the sleeping area.

Get the look with Lounger armchair

To make your living room harmonious, you can combine the red colour of the walls with brown and in general with all shades of wood. A furnishing that skilfully combines white and red is certainly very impressive.

A Contemporary Style Home.

A contemporary style home: furnishing your home with the simplicity and beauty of contemporary style, one of the latest trends in interior design.

Among the trends that are emerging in the field of home furnishing, the contemporary style is preferred in many furnishing projects. This is not a simple and trivial way of filling the home with furniture and accessories that might prove to be superfluous, but rather of remaining attentive and following fashion, while leaving space for personal taste and easy future renovation.

Decorating the living room with contemporary style

The perception of spaciousness of the room is favoured by the contrast of harmonious colours: combinations of greys in all shades combined with white walls and black accessories are the simplest example, while the regular shapes of the sofa and wall units take their cue from the minimalist style. A large rug in the centre of the living room also gives a sense of warmth and completeness to the décor.

Decorating Home with Mirrors.

Decorating your home with mirrors: how to decorate different rooms in your home with mirrors.

The mirror was created primarily as a purely functional element and finds its natural place in rooms such as the bedroom, the bathroom or the entrance to the house or to diffuse light in the rooms, or even increase the perspective of the spaces. But mirrors can also be used as decorative elements to decorate the home, to transform a room and give it a particular style and/or character.

A mirror is an extremely versatile piece of furniture, as it can be placed in any room, can have any shape, size and can be part of a composition. With mirrors you can renovate and decorate your home, even with little money, creating original and designer settings.

There are many places where a mirror can be placed: from the entrance to the hallway, the bedroom to the living room, a mirror in the right place harmonises the environment and creates pleasant perspectives. We recommend opting for modern, minimalist mirrors that can always be moved to other rooms or reused over time without compromising the visual harmony of the space.

Get the look with Palmiro mirror

The various models of mirrors available on the market create different effects in an environment; a mirror with an important frame or with a particular shape/size finds its maximum decorative expression when placed on the ground, becoming an important furnishing element of the environment, able to enhance the chosen style. This type of mirror finds its maximum expression when placed in a bedroom…

Get the look with Reflection mirror

The use of mirrors is an excellent solution for cramped and poorly lit rooms; in this case you don’t need a huge mirror, just one of the right size and shape for the space available, meaning that in a small bathroom you don’t need a full wall mirror!

Large vertical mirrors are perfect for use in entrance halls or corridors, complete with accessories such as an object holder or clothes racks; in the case of Benvenuto by Miniforms, the mirror is transformed from a decorative to a functional element!
