Choosing a wall colour for a sleeping room
Kategorier:
- Sovrum
Dear Jotun team, I would appreciate your advice for choosing a suitable colour. The sleeping room faces north-west and does not get a lot of light. Since the room is on the first floor and there are large trees outside the back of the room never gets light. It has a very dominant honey coloured wooden floor (see photos). The furniture is mostly white and birch wood. I was wondering if 1931 Kokos is a good choice to add some warmth to the room? I am also interested in hearing about other colours. Thank you so much! Susanna

Hello,
I'd be happy to help you, but I need a little more information here. If you have the opportunity to check what color code (ncs or Jotun) you have on your roofs, windows, doors and moldings, if not all these details in the home are to be painted, that would be great. It affects which colors will look good and how you will experience the end result. The easiest way to find out is to borrow color samples of the most common whites, S0500-N, 0502-S (without the S) and S0502-Y, and see which of these comes closest to your white details. Then come back with this and a floor plan and color code in adjacent rooms, and I will be happy to help you further with a color plan.

Hi Annika, Thank you so much for your quick reply and detailed questions. Let me try to answer them: I am attaching the floor plan (the green marks are representing large trees). Due to the compass direction, situation on the first floor and the trees least light reaches room number 5 (the sleeping room I would like to discuss) and room number 6 (living room). Since we only recently moved in, all rooms and ceilings are coloured white - the closest match I could find is the Farrow & Ball colour "Wevet" (HEX #EEE9E7). The door frames and skirting boards are close to the Farrow & Ball colour "Dimity" (HEX #EEE3D3). Overall, the house has a strong "Bauhaus" feel, which I generally like. I hope to add some warmth to the apartment and make the most of the light. I am adding some more photos for a general impression of the apartment. Thanks a lot, I am curious to hear about your ideas. Best regards Susanna

Hi again,
Thank you. It seems like your are ton paint the whole apartment?
If your are, it's usually best to start with the kitchen/hallway/livinroom. After That it's easier to chose colours fore the other rooms.
What colourcode are your kitchencabinets?
What colours do you like?
