Red sofa

Red color in the interior, perhaps the most controversial option - this is how designers consider. This color attracts the eye, but it repels some. It can cause a feeling of joy, euphoria - or provoke the awakening of aggressive reactions. Usually red is chosen by people who are easily given difficult decisions. They are able to defend their opinions in any situation. This color has always been associated with vitality.

The soft furniture product for rest of red color with a cotton upholstery, genuine or an imitation leather will become a highlight of any room. Saturated red is ideal for modern models of upholstered furniture in the style of high-tech, modern, minimalism.

The most practical material as upholstery of any sofa is genuine leather. Although it is expensive, it serves for a long time and only gets better over time.

Cotton and synthetic fabrics are also used in the manufacture of sofas. Modern manufacturers saturate them with special dirt-repellent substances, so buyers can safely choose such upholstery options. In terms of care the most practical are maroon sofas.

Velveteen and velvet sofas have a special charm. They will adequately decorate even the royal interior.

Leatherette can also be seen quite often in furniture stores. Such furniture (as well as from eco-leather) costs much less than that created from natural materials.

Only at first glance upholstered furniture "bloody" color seems aggressive and unnecessary in the interior. In the hands of skilled designers, it can turn into an original accent, a stylish highlight. The highlight is the combination in the interior. Saturated color can soften lighter tones. Bright scarlet furniture will make any room original and unique, and a working office will be stylish and unique.

In the best way, red sofas are combined with white as well as neutral colors - for example, with gray, brown and black. White or dark background will highlight red, thanks to them the latter becomes even brighter and more noticeable.

If you are going to put a sofa in the room, you need to think about other furniture: bedside tables, wardrobes, tables, household appliances - all these items dilute the aggression of red, create a calm and balanced atmosphere.

In the interiors of the Empire style or Baroque, the sofa of the color of juicy raspberry is well combined with luxurious materials: natural stone, precious woods, gold.In such rooms red carpets, drapes and other decorative elements will also be appropriate.

Red sofa can be installed in a variety of rooms, there are no obstacles to such furniture was, for example, in the living room or dining room. The main thing - the right combination and no frills.

The premises for receiving friends and relaxing with family are often made in calm, warm colors: sand, beige, coral. Such rooms decorate the red sofa, making them more luxurious.

When you want creativity, originality and something unusual, red furniture will be the perfect assistant. It is perfect for the implementation of the most unusual wishes. However, you can not overdo it and mindlessly experiment with mixing different colors. For the background is better to take white, milk or beige.

Designers and psychologists do not recommend placing objects of bright colors in rooms where you have to think a lot and think. Such accents will distract, reduce concentration, even annoy. To create a stylish interior of the workplace, you can choose a burgundy sofa (preferably from genuine leather).

Independently choosing furniture for a contrasting sofa is quite difficult, it is so noticeable that not all experts agree to deal with such tasks.

For a classic-style room, one red sofa is enough to give the room an original look. You can dilute the unusual color for the furniture with more subtle shades - silver, golden, beige. But white should be used very carefully - such a duet may turn out to be too contrasting.

The most successful (and at the same time, the brightest) contrast is considered green and red.Far from everyone decides on such a combination, however, the most courageous then have the opportunity to surprise friends and relatives with a unique interior. Green pillows, curtains or a carpet with elements of a grass shade will add original style.

An excess of red can cause discomfort to the owners and guests of the house. This color is rather heavy, therefore its surplus is depressing. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to facilitate the internal filling of the room: replace heavy structures with lighter ones, if such a layout permits, weighty fabrics with airy laced, dense colors should be diluted with watercolor. You should not get involved in gold inserts (if the style of the room is not baroque), carved wooden details and fancy shapes. Heavy window curtains should be replaced with blinds, and a massive wooden table should be replaced with a modern glass one.

Not all people today adequately relate to red furniture. If a fabric sofa of sand-colored color is perceived as something permissible, then with red furniture, things are completely different. The leather upholstery of a sofa of saturated cherry shade will certainly cause associations with triumph and luxury.Not everyone will decide on such a "bold" decor. However, the richer the tone of the sofa, the “more expensive” the interior looks.

Psychologists do not recommend putting a bright red sofa in a room where maximum mental work is required of a person. Of course, this color activates nerve cells, stimulates thinking, but it is more concerned with creative activity.

You can not install such a bed in the nursery. A child will not be able to fall asleep for a long time surrounded by red.

But in catering establishments (cafes and restaurants) the color of blood will stimulate guests to take food.

There are a lot of shades of red, and it is difficult for an inexperienced person not to get lost in them (and even more so to choose the most suitable variant of furniture for themselves). How to choose the right "companions" is not an easy task, but it can be solved if you take into account certain nuances.

Creating a new environment, you must try to act according to the laws of composition, and for this you need to know that:

• The dark red sofa (the color of ripe cherry, rich burgundy) fits the respectable classical style. Expensive upholstery materials must necessarily be supplemented with solid wood furniture, otherwise the desired effect of solidity will not be.A black and red sofa will accentuate a tree of dark rocks, ideally - lacquered.

• To soften the red color, an additional “strong” shade is suitable. He successfully dilute the interior. But it is worth being careful to avoid busting. It is better to choose such tones as chocolate, purple, gray. Blue-red sofa perfectly decorate the dining area. Bright upholstery highlighted pastel colors. The floor with imitation of light wood will soften the contrast, and the room will become more comfortable, especially if you add yellow color to it.
