Color Forecast

A color forecast predicts the colors we will decorate with in upcoming years by looking at whats happening culturally, on the runway and a variety of other places. They are using larger peices that vary in shades of gray and lighter shades of brown, from mocha to camel. The accent peices will tend to be amethyst and or acid green. These colors were predicted because we are starting to be more eco friendly and by going with the more nuetral colors it is considered a safe choice. The room I designed fits this years color forecast by following with the mocha couch and acid green and amethyst accent pieces. The green, gold, and amethyst follow with the triadic color scheme.

Color Schemes



Monochromatic

               

Making the living room monochromatically blue made the space more modern. I added a few traditional items such as  the mirror and even some of the patterns on the chairs and pillows. The center of the room is relatively open for a family friendly living room.

Analogous




The analogous colors (red, orange, and yellow) gave the kitchen an open, up beat feel. The inviting colors will draw the whole family to the kitchen, which is the heart of the house. It will also be a pleasant place to entertain company.

Complementary




This toddler"s bedroom was put together  using two pairs of complementary colors; red and green and orange and blue. By using these colors it gave the space a youthful feel. Also using this color scheme keeps the room modern and playful. A majority of the items found in here can be used through out their adolesence.

Triadic




The items chosen for this mood board would be found in the family's 3 season porch. This would be a place for them to enjoy nature and a virtual fire while still being in the comfort of their home where they can spend time with each other and do crafts. I chose these colors because you see alot of the burnt orange and  green throughout nature. Adding the more lavander color to the mix tied the colors together in a traidic color scheme.
