Light and Elegant: Colors Transition from Dark to Light

A light-toned Neoclassical interior. Compared to the deep greens, deep reds, and extensive gilding of Baroque, the colors here are much brighter: walls are pale greenish-blue, light blue-gray, ivory, or stone-colored; decorative reliefs and moldings are white; gold is used only in very fine lines. The overall lightness is high, and saturation is low, like a bleached classical style. Light can therefore diffuse completely throughout the space. Avoid: using deep, rich colors, extensive use of gilding and dark marble, making the space dim, or using high-saturation colors.

一個色調淺淡的新古典室內。相對於巴洛克的深綠深紅與大量貼金,這裡的顏色明亮得多:牆面是淡青綠、淺藍灰、象牙或石色;裝飾的浮雕與線腳是白的;金只有極細的線。整體明度高、彩度低,像被漂淡過的古典。光線因此可以在空間裡完整地擴散。避免:使用深沉濃重的色彩、大面積使用貼金與深色大理石、把空間做得昏暗、使用高彩度的顏色。
