Camel, Oatmeal, and Navy: The Safest Three Colors

A space composed of three classic colors. Camel – a warm brown with yellow undertones, used on the largest areas of the sofa and rug, forming the base tone of the space. Oatmeal – a lighter, grayish beige, used on walls and some textiles, providing a background. Deep blue – a very dark, almost black navy blue, used sparingly, appearing only on a single chair and a throw pillow, providing visual weight and the only cool color. All three colors have very low saturation; none are vibrant. Woodwork is medium brown, and hardware is dark gold. Due to the conservative color scheme, the space can remain timeless for a long time. Avoid: using high-saturation colors, expanding the area of deep blue, adding a fourth main color, using pure white and pure black instead of oatmeal and deep blue.

一個以三種經典色構成的空間。駝色——帶黃的暖褐,用在最大面積的沙發與地毯上,是空間的基調;燕麥——更淺的帶灰米色,用在牆面與部分織品,提供背景;深藍——極深的、幾乎近黑的海軍藍,用量最少,只出現在一張單椅與一個抱枕上,提供視覺的重量與唯一的冷色。三者的彩度都很低,沒有任何一個是鮮豔的。木作是中褐色,五金是暗金。因為配色保守,空間可以放很久不退流行。避免:使用高彩度的顏色、把深藍的面積擴大、加入第四種主要顏色、使用純白與純黑取代燕麥與深藍。
