The Living Room style and colour choices are inevitably dictated by size, use and environment and this particularly relevant when hot colours in living room are introduced. The first consideration is the living room setting, that is which direction it faces, how much light it gets, and how the light comes into the room at different times throughout the day. The dull grey light of northern hemisphere affects colour, and the way it works with other colours, plus the atmosphere it creates. Bright colours maintain a vibrancy in strong sunlight that is lost under naturally dull light. Mediterranean or Caribbean hues of hibiscus pink and canary yellow cannot be expected to hang onto their indigenous qualities and atmosphere in the subdued light of cooler climes. These hot colours do not respond well when there is extended use of electric light, natural daylight bulbs are an option, although at night time candlelight makes a good companion to a vibrant colour scheme.

Chilled Out Contemporary Living Rooms
For a blast of cool contempo style inspiration for your living space,
these visualizations display laid back luxury, strong modern artwork
choices, and clear cut color schemes to transform your home into a
trendsetter.
Here we’re looking at décor with a slightly industrial edge, or a subtly masculine air about it, where plain robust fabrics rule on furniture with metal detailing, surrounded by interesting worldly knickknacks and extensive book collections.
