What did the target image look like before you started painting?
We wanted to create a pleasant home, of course, but didn't really have a clear goal. Everything has grown. To a large extent, we have probably started from the kitchen furniture, grandmother's green chairs and the wooden table that I took over when I got my first apartment. The extreme green color does not work as a wall colour, but is a fun accent that makes you wake up, while the old wood calms and stabilizes. Grateful to build on.
How did you go about choosing the colors?
We wanted to paint the parquet white, so it was natural to put some color on the walls. Mild green in the kitchen and living room, creme in the hall and guest room and nougat in the bedroom. When everything was finished, it was tempting to keep the calm color scheme, it was so pleasant. At the same time, we didn't want to replace the entire furniture, but all colors and materials must match, it also gives a living home. And the different shades of wood we have on the bookshelf, on the piano, the tables, etc., are tied together with some yellow and rust-colored elements in the carpet, on pillows, candlesticks, etc. Colors that harmonize and contrast with the mild egg oil colors.
