Wallpaper and furniture


When choosing furniture for a room, you need to consider:

  • The combination of colors throughout the interior of the room.
  • Color combination of furniture and wallpaper.
  • Large or small room.
  • How well it is lit.
  • The functionality of this room.
  • Tastes of all family members.
  • Room interior style.

Interior color scheme


When choosing furniture for a separate room, of course, we first of all take into account the color of the wallpaper, since they are the background of the entire room and interior.

Of course, when choosing the color of furniture, we will take into account the combination of colors; let’s look at a few examples:

  • White furniture is very versatile, as it matches any wallpaper color. It’s more difficult if the furniture is green and what wallpaper to choose, that’s the question. Using a combination of colors, furniture of this color will be appropriate if the wallpaper is white, brown, orange or yellow.
  • Walnut furniture is common and what wallpaper to choose for it is not very difficult, since this color is also universal, that is, it can be combined with all colors and shades. Black furniture looks good against white wallpaper, but this is for modern interior styles.
  • More difficult with furniture dark colors and shades, since it is undesirable for there to be a sharp contrast between wallpaper and furniture, although for brave people it will look original and stylish. Designers advise choosing dark furniture if the wallpaper bright colors and shades.
  • Any color of furniture will suit yellow wallpaper, blue, olive, lilac and other light and calm colors and shades. It could even be multi-colored furniture, which often happens when choosing upholstered furniture. You can emphasize the color of the wallpaper using decorative pillows the same color or shade as the walls.

Selecting furniture

Many people think that choosing furniture is not a problem at all; they go to the store and buy what they like. But at home it turns out that the sofa or chest of drawers doesn’t look right at all and looks out of place in the room. And then it turns out that it’s not at all what you wanted, and there’s not enough storage space, and it’s the wrong shade, and the wrong color.

To prevent this from happening, you need to decide in advance what you want to get in the end. This is a harmonious interior of the room, this is a lot of storage space, this is convenience, or all three. Let's take everything in order.

Selection by functionality


Before going to the furniture store, let's think about what exactly we need for our room:

  • What kind of furniture will be in this room. For example, if this is a bedroom, then, of course, there is a bed, a wardrobe and a dressing table.
  • How much storage space will this room need? For example, if you have a lot of books, you need to estimate how many shelves you will need for them.
  • What kind of sleeping places will be located here and will they fit? For example, will a double bed fit in the room and will there be room for something else.
  • It is worth thinking about multifunctional furniture. For example, in the living room a pull-out sofa can become a sleeping place for guests.

Important! When choosing furniture, it is necessary to take into account the tastes and desires of all family members.

Choice by interior style


If you have already clearly decided on the interior style of the room, then you should select furniture to match it.

To do this, you can use the catalog or our tips:

  • For high-tech style and other modern interior styles, choose furniture without decoration, possibly made of glass, with chrome-plated and shiny legs and handles. Upholstered furniture should be straight in shape with plain upholstery.
  • For classic styles, furniture with carved inserts and facades is suitable, always made of wood. Upholstered furniture with rounded shapes and gracefully curved legs and armrests. The colors for such styles are usually selected in calm colors and shades.
  • For rustic styles, for example, country or Provence, both wooden and forged furniture, light colors, slightly aged, are suitable. Upholstered furniture in such an interior involves a lot of ruffles and frills, the colors are usually stripes, checks or flowers.
  • Bamboo furniture is well suited for Japanese or Chinese styles, but it can be simply dark or even black with strict shapes without any decor or very minimal. It is best to choose varnished surfaces so that their shine emphasizes the severity of the style.
  • Furniture in dark colors with curved shapes and numerous carvings and paintings is suitable for the Moroccan style. Upholstered furniture in rich bright colors with patterns and embroidery.
  • For ethnic styles, dark, strict furniture with bright colors and patterns corresponding to the style is suitable.

Advice! When going to the store, stock up on photographs of the pieces of furniture you like, show them to the sales consultant and he will be able to understand what exactly interests you and offer only what you need.

How to arrange furniture correctly


Having decided what kind of furniture will be in the room, you need to immediately understand where and how it will stand.

For this:

  • Look around and imagine where and what will stand, so you will understand what furniture will fit in the room and what will not.
  • Measure the places where the piece of furniture will stand, so you will understand how busy the space of the room will be.
  • Mark the places where the shelves or wall cabinets, so you will understand whether they will interfere and spoil the overall picture of the room.
  • Using masking tape, mark out the locations of the sofa, armchairs or bed on the floor. This way you will understand whether there is enough space for passage.
  • By using computer program model the future interior, so you will understand what your future room will look like.
  • A designer can do all this if you are willing to pay, but his services are quite expensive and it is not a fact that you will like the result.

Important! Each room has its own emphasis on certain furniture, for example, in the living room there is a sofa, in the bedroom there is a bed, so you need to start from this piece of furniture, both when purchasing other items and when arranging them.

In other words, it is the planned style that will largely determine what kind of wallpaper you will glue in a room with brown furniture.


As for the too obvious use of brown as the main color, there are some disadvantages here. So, the room where he or his different shades take on the role of a dominant, can cause associations with a boring and, to some extent, lifeless space. That is why it is customary to actively use wallpaper in delicate, mostly light colors. They create a more neutral background, playing in contrast with dark armchairs, a sofa and a coffee table.







Besides, light walls help create a brighter and more cheerful environment. These colors include the following:

  • soft white;
  • light yellow shades;
  • beige and cream.

As a rule, this applies to a greater extent to residential premises made in modern styles, especially in high-tech style. So: the principle of choosing the color of blinds coincides with the principle of selecting curtains. The rules for combining shades remain the same.


Additional decor items

Their range extends from light to dark: starting with the color of heavily diluted coffee with cream and ending with the dark shade of dark chocolate.
