                     Curved Lines!

The curved lines in the room can be found everywhere in this room, it can be found in the curtains, the wheels, the furniture, and on the walls.

Color Forecast

    Color forecasters are a mix between designers and sociologists. They understand what trends will be hot in the next year. The forecast for the upcoming year will be neutral colors with a pop of a bold color. The neutral colors will either be shades of grey or shades of brown. The pops of bold colors would most likely be reds, blues, or greens. With the many shades of a neutral color in a room, it creates a monochromatic scheme. The color forecasters are inspired by many different things; including fashion and other countries.
    In this room i did two different monochromatic schemes, my first monochromatic scheme is my grays. from the color on the walls to the couch color its all different shades of gray. My second monochromatic scheme is my blues. I took a darker color blue for the chair to make it sort of match with they couch, but then i also have a lighter color blues for the lighting and the table. Over all i think that this room goes well with each other. Its the neutral colors (gray) with the popping colors (blue).

Color Schemes!

Monochromatic Scheme!

In this Monochromatic, even though this room is a neutral colored room. It has different shades of browns. I tried to do something that you wont see in everyday rooms, i wanted this room to stick out and have a good down home feel to it. Even though brown really is not on the color wheel, its still a monochromatic room.

Analogous Color Scheme!

This analogous items that would go into a room sticks out and pops out at you. I wanted bright colors but i also had to make sure that they were next to each other on the color wheel. i wanted to do mostly red in this room, because the shades of orange will pop out more at you when you first walk into the room.

Triadic Color Scheme!

This Triadic Color Scheme i did purples, greens, and oranges. I think that with little hints of green will make the room look more natural, and earthy. But also when you have the purple in the lighting fixtures it will make everything calm. Adding the orange couch and end table makes the items more seeing in the guest room.

Split- Complementary Scheme!

My split-complementary scheme, i wanted to do colors that would look good together, but yet not over power everything else in the room. Having the blue pattern wall paper makes the room all come together and have a calming feeling when you walk into the room. Having the orange couch and coffee table in the room, makes the room a little more outgoing and fun.
