The color white in your living room

Il colore bianco nel tuo soggiorno

When it comes to interior decoration, the white it is certainly the most versatile color.

In the last decades the choice of white for painting the walls has conquered the entire world of interior design. Instead of being associated with a lack of personality, whiteness is instead now celebrated as a way to accentuate the character of a space , furniture and architecture.

We all know its main furnishing qualities: makes an environment seem larger and more airy , Makes a dark room brighter . But there are also other properties of white.

There is a reason, in fact, why white is often used as a background in graphics: This color has an unmatched way of making all elements stand out . And the same concept applies to the interior spaces: the walls painted white allow furnishings, accessories and fabrics to be the center of attention.

Even though we at Sofable love a little pop of brighter color on the walls (or a dramatic dark tone, or a well-considered neutral...), we also agree that White can be seen as an ideal backdrop for any space . No matter the style chosen, from shabby chic to Scandinavian, from minimalist to contemporary, white is a “timeless” classic, which always works .

A white living room it's a timeless classic and an eat-in kitchen follows suit. The living areas they are the heart of the house and it is good for them choose a shade of velvety and refined white , so as to make them more welcoming, also thanks to the use of lighting designed to create the right atmosphere.

The potential of a white background it is extremely inspiring. White for the living room, in particular, creates a canvas that you can decorate in different ways even seasonally.

Whether you love ushering in autumn with gorgeous warm, earthy, burnt tones or switching to fresh, pastel colors in spring, an interior painted completely in white , with furnishings and floors in neutral tones, gives you the versatility to easily renew the look!

All you need is a few accent elements, such as cushions, throws and small objects (vases, candles, frames...), for Create a comfortable and welcoming home .

Look at white as a new beginning to do what you want and go where your creativity takes you!
