Off-White and Ivory: The White Space

An Art Nouveau room with off-white as the background. The upper part of the walls and the ceiling are warm off-white or ivory, matte, undecorated; it provides a quiet background that allows the reliefs, dark wood, and stained glass below to stand out. Off-white also appears on lampshades and some textiles. This white has a distinct yellow tint, not a cool white.
Avoid: using cool pure white and grayish white, making the white area too small to breathe, adding decorations to the off-white areas, making the white appear bluish or greenish.

一個以乳白作為背景的新藝術房間。牆面的上段與天花是溫暖的乳白或象牙色,霧面,沒有裝飾;它提供了一片安靜的背景,讓下方的浮雕、深色木作與彩繪玻璃跳出來。乳白也出現在燈罩與部分織品上。這個白帶明顯的黃調,不是冷白。避免:使用冷調的純白與灰白、讓白色的面積過小失去喘息、在乳白的區域加入裝飾、讓白色偏藍偏綠。
