You can talk about design canons for a long time, but every day the existing canons become less and less stable. Aesthetics and harmony, balance, colors, materials, brought together in order to get such a long-awaited result are the essence of your knowledge, practice and self-development. My motto is to learn, see, touch something new every day, and I am sure that this is the only way to keep the right course in “high design”.

Carmine, lingonberry, ripe cherries, Bismarck furioso... Do you think I'm crazy? No, these are just shades of burgundy, juicy and bright, muted and deep, furious and cozy. I could not ignore this color also because it filled everything with itself, becoming the main shade of 2015 according to the Pantone Institute. So, let's figure out what is combined with burgundy color in the interior.

Perhaps it’s worth starting with the fact that burgundy is a rather specific color. Being a symbiosis of red and brown, on the one hand, it gives comfort, and on the other, it kindles passion.

Brown, with its inherent monumentality, carries tradition, confidence, but in in large numbers can cause fatigue.

Red is life, burning fire, youth and love. It is emotionally strong, stimulates to violent activity, excites fantasy.

Burgundy conveys the qualities inherent in red to the interior, but does it in a softer way.

Rooms in burgundy colors look rich and impressive, luxury and solemnity soar in their atmosphere. The interior is characterized by "maturity", solidity, lack of youthful enthusiasm.

Combine correctly

I consider white, beige, cream, milky and light gray to be the main allies of burgundy.

But, these are not all color duets.

• Golden and burgundy in an instant will make the interior bursting with luxury, pompous. This combination requires a lot of space, so it is appropriate in the halls and living rooms.

• The combination with black is more often used for zoning a kitchen-studio, but for children I would not recommend such a duet.

• The combination of gray and burgundy in the interior is considered universal, suitable for any room. Light gray is appropriate in classic decors, suitable for the living room and bedroom.

• Modesty brings to the fore the duet of burgundy and brown. Having chosen such a tandem, give up expensive furniture, artsy accessories and antiques.

• It’s hard not to notice the spectacular interior, which merged dark green and burgundy. However, over time, this combination tires, so use it exclusively for rooms where you do not plan to spend a lot of time, for example, for.

• Tenderness and warmth emanates from the combination of pink and burgundy. In such shades, you can safely decorate a bedroom or a children's room.

• If you have chosen eco-style or country, take a look at the tandem of burgundy and orange. Do not be surprised! From them, in fact, you can get quite an interesting solution.

Know your place!

Hallway

She meets us first and forms the impression of the owner. In most typical apartments, hallways and corridors do not have an abundance of natural light and area, so choose a rich burgundy just for decoration.

It can be a comfortable soft ottoman or floor mat. For such a modest room, this will be enough.

Living room

In such a room, you can give the burgundy all the reins of government. If the area of ​​​​the room is small enough, choose burgundy for finishing the accent wall, both wallpaper and textured plaster will look equally attractive.

Burgundy accessories, such as lampshades, carpeting, bedspreads, window textiles and furniture upholstery, will help bring the interior together.

Children's

The use of burgundy in the nursery is a controversial issue that causes a lot of discussion. I would not recommend coloring dark color large areas (walls, ceiling, large furniture), opt for accent use in decor, lighting or textiles.

An excellent alternative for a nursery can be a shade of strawberry jelly, matte and scattered. As an addition, use light green and turquoise.

Burgundy goes well with white in Provence style. If the little lady agrees to an abundance of frills and bows, why not?

Bedroom

Burgundy fills the bedroom with passion. It can be safely used in the design of the head of the bed, window textiles, bedspreads and decorative pillows. Oh yes, night lamps with burgundy lampshades will look great against the backdrop of walls in pastel colors.

If you plan to combine burgundy with white, use the principle of horizontal division.
In this case, a dark shade is used at the bottom of the room, a light one at the top.

Kitchen

• When choosing burgundy as the main color, dilute it with milky, beige tones so that its amount does not exceed 50%.
• You can also play in contrast, for example, by choosing green as the second color.

• As an addition, use woody shades, creamy and diluted pink.
• Blue can be added to grassy shades. Due to the fact that burgundy contains a little blue, it goes well with the blue range. You can balance the rich duet by using gray, white and black.

Bathroom

Burgundy color in the bathroom requires a careful approach to the choice of style and accessories. If you don't plan on limiting yourself to a pair of burgundy towels or a rug, opt for a classic style that uses natural materials.

Combine burgundy with chrome sanitary ware, a massive frame of mirrors, dark rattan wicker baskets.

Some interesting burgundy projects

And, of course, according to the good old tradition, I offer you several ready-made interior options in which burgundy was chosen as an accent color. Let's get started.

Roman holiday

So, I saw an apartment in a house built in 1930, which looked more like a warehouse of rubbish and furniture, seasoned with a complete cacophony of styles.

The only thing that gave hope for a brighter future were two huge windows overlooking the old center of Rome.

The main wish of the hostess is a partial unification of the kitchen and living room, which would not flaunt the kitchen chaos. For this purpose, a double-sided bookcase was installed.

For color zoning, a burgundy color was chosen, which very successfully coexists with a red false ceiling.

The living room has a comfortable sofa and a gigantic wardrobe filled with books and magazines.

The burgundy theme continued in the bedroom, above the bed there was a shelf of interesting lingonberry color, and on the bed - a bedspread with an ornament.

The bedroom is separated from the living room by a sliding door, which does not take up extra space when solving the issue of privacy.

A designer table and a chair upholstered in painted fabric settled in the hallway.

Fireplace and lingonberry kitchen

think it's classic English style and Armenian folklore cannot exist within the same walls? Wrong! And I will prove it to you now.

The main idea in the design was patchwork, which combines textures and colors. The compositional center of the living room is a seven-meter fireplace, which with its whole appearance evokes the spirit of old England.

The main shades are ocher, scarlet, beech and mahogany, bottle and lingonberry. All this motley color fraternity is united by a floral print.

The decoration of the fireplace uses a solar symbol and elements of a frieze from the Yerevan Opera House.
But the tiles themselves were made in Gzhel.

Fireplace tiles are made in two shades - white and milky, due to this the surface does not look flat and shimmers a little.

For the kitchen set, I chose a complex red, which was found in the catalog of the German factory Rational. Bright flashes of color are balanced by light walls. The same combination of bottle green and red is used in the living room.

Of particular note is the suspended structure located above the kitchen island. Thanks to her, the space is balanced and the room "does not creep" up. The walls are decorated with bright patchwork, created from wallpaper with various floral ornaments.

In the same bright color painted stairs. Thanks to this, it was possible to beat the column, which is comfortably, but completely out of place, located at the entrance.

Summing up

Everything that surrounds us influences mental condition, there will be no exception and burgundy color. In our minds, he recreates the majestic historical paintings and heavy interiors? Why?

After all, it is considered the color of creative people, the color that awakens imagination. The thing is that it was this shade that was more often used in creating castle interiors, hence the associations.

By the way, the very name of the shade was first used in the XVIII century, originates from the French "bordeaux", dark red.

Well, my cranberry-flavored burgundy opus is coming to an end. But before I put an end to it, let me ask you a question, how do you feel about the burgundy scale, are you ready to let it into your home? Share your thoughts in the comments, and it remains for me to offer you a very entertaining video in this article.
