Color Concepts for Living Rooms

1. Choose your main color carefully – usually a white, soft gray, or beige. There is no such thing as a neutral white. This color is the most dominant material in the room and shapes its mood more than any other.

2. Very bright whites suit rooms used mainly during the day. A more muted white works better for rooms also used in the evening under artificial light, since the brightest whites can cast gloomy shadows.

3. Which white? Match your white to the floor color, textiles, and lighting conditions.

4. Dark colors on individual surfaces add depth to a room.

5. Bold color accents bring energy to a room. Match them to the colors of the surrounding landscape and the available light.

6. Natural pigment colors, like those from ktCOLOR, create rooms that feel harmonious and authentic. Synthetic pigments and imitations simply cannot achieve this. The eye is not so easily fooled.

7. Choose the paint quality suited to the surface and its exposure: Emulsion for surfaces with light use; Silikat for mineral substrates indoors (0.5 mm grain) and for facades; Satinée for higher-traffic interiors, wood surfaces, and hospitality settings.

8. Think long-term! Timeless colors made from natural pigments, paired with a well-considered concept, outlast trends and support a lasting quality of living.
