2015 Decorating Ideas with Red Color

Warm colors such as red and yellow energize a room and seem to advance, making a space feel cozy or pushing an element into the foreground. Red is festive and lively. When it's undiluted, this engaging color is particularly effective in rooms where people socialize. It seems to put everyone in a convivial mood and stimulates conversation. Not to mention everyone looks better in it's rosy glow.

However you have to be careful when using a saturated red. Although red will look spectacular, it will also soak up the light because it has no reflective value.
In a small space, play it safe, using red on a feature wall instead of painting the entire room. Or try using a few red accessories. If you still want to paint a small room red, use a high-performance enamel, which has a sheen.

If your fireplace is nondescript, boost its appeal by refacing it in stone, replacing the mantel, adding decorative trimwork to the overmantel or the face, creating a vignette on the mantel, or adding a handsome fire screen.

2- Architectural Windows : Large, dramatic windows, often called "architectural windows," can be showstoppers in any room in the house. If you are lucky enough to have even one, you may want to leave it uncovered, revealing its architectural lines unless your house is too close to the neighbors or the view is subpar.

3- Wall Decor : One picture or a grouping of framed prints, paintings, or photographs not only calls attention to itself but adds personality to your room's decor. An alternative to framed art is a tapestry, a large vintage quilt, or some other displayworthy textile. Additional ideas include mirrors,wall clocks, objects d'art displayed on brackets, plates, and maps.

4- Feature Wall : The main wall in a room painted a color that contrasts with the other walls or an intensely saturated shade becomes a focal point. An alternative is a patterned wallpaper, a mural, or a trompe l'oeil painted wall.

5- The TV Units : The TV is typically a focal point in a family or TV room, particularly if the screen is prominent.

6 - Large Furniture Pieces : Anchor a room or a section of a large space with a substantial piece of furniture.
