Cohesive Colour Themes, Archways And Exposed Wooden Beams

Building a cohesive colour scheme throughout the entire home evokes feelings of comforting constancy, and a solid sense of belonging from room to room. This type of interior can include a variety of accent colours that appear in varying quantities over different spaces. Tonal changes make added layers and avoid rigidity in the scheme. Let us guide you on a tour of two beautiful home interiors that each follow one cohesive colour theme throughout. We’ll also explore the added beauty of rustic wooden ceilings in each place, and look at how classic exposed wooden beams, archways, brickwork and stonework create dramatic contrast with more modern decor elements.

Instant warmth exudes from this 84 square metre apartment interior in Kaunas, Lithuania. An autumnal palette of red, brown, and gold feels welcoming and snug despite the room’s lofty proportions. A golden brown modern sofa beds down in front of an exposed red brick wall with a beautiful arch that is original to the architecture.

Curvaceous red-brown dining chairs encircle the wooden round dining table, on top of a circular brown area rug. Each layer of the dining arrangement employs a shade from the same colour family, but the tonal difference builds added interest and depth.

Sandwiched between the dark wooden ceiling and rich brown floor elements, the middle section of the room is kept predominantly white to preserve a bright and airy atmosphere. In line with this, the pendant lights hanging within this mid section are either white or clear. Unique kitchen pendant lights line up along the dining bar with clear shades that are a smaller version of the lounge light.

Exposed red brickwork frames the two arched windows. Taupe curtains pull into the space between the windows, theatrically framing a piece of wall art. The art draws attention to both the colour theme in this home and to the underlying circular shape theme, which is evident in the dining room arrangement, curved furniture choices and lighting designs.
