How to create harmony with color

A simple table runner and a floral composition, so many gradations of orange against a backdrop of peach colored wall gives you an idea of how harmony can be achieved in interior decoration. Colors mark the stages of our lives but are also an exciting way to help us in our evolution and changes that life brings us. In choosing color for our walls and furnishing there are no rules obviously, white on white or bright colors, beige on beige or contrasting hues, but the result needs to be obtained through experienced planning.
Harmonizing colors means to combine them in a way that express a vision, a feeling, interpreting the space to be decorated, there is obviously not just one way to harmonize colors, but only our "own" subjective understanding of the harmonies of color. It is important not to confuse inspiration with improvisation because the border between the fantastic and the disaster is still very thin.

No matter which colors are you mostly attracted to just remember to plan them carefully and when in doubt ask a professional, to avoid costly mistakes, because your house needs to reflect the best of your personality and you must feel happy every time you return home and proud of it when you have guests.
