How could you make the living room comfortable and welcoming? Rethinking your walls is not enough, it is crucial that colours match the environment through neat geometries and harmonious tonalities.
Indoor designers call it “60-30-10”, a role that intertwines, in different quantities: a predominant colour, filling the 60% of the room’ surface, a complementary tonality, which has to fill 30% of the living room, and a nuance one, obviously marginal, whereby to decorate the 10% of the remaining space. But how to make the colours perfectly match? Here there are our favourite palettes.
Brightful tonalities for a ‘70s alike living room

A return from the past distinguishable from the retrò lines, style details and comfy seats, stepping back from the rigid modules of other years.

A slightly dark wooden parquet, like wengè, greatly matches ancient shades of green, resulting quite chic. And that is how our palette gets coloured of tè leaf, turquoise green, dark green and a very refined hybrid: the gray-green tea.
