Fascinating world of colours: Multicoloured

While all colours have their own charms and appeal, there is something particularly satisfying in the interplay of different strong colours such as bright yellow, bright red or clear sea blue. In the interior, colourful colour accents stand for cheerfulness, joie de vivre and a good mood. Thus since the 1960s, a focus in interior design has no longer been on minimalism and functionality, but rather on loud, shrill, ironic and colourful objects, such as those of, for example, the flower power movement and pop art design. Furniture designs in bright colours from the then new plastics or colourful patterned home textiles stood for a break with all the traditional and embodied the longing for vitality and something new. When it comes to the interior, however, one should not overwhelm the eyes with too many bright colours. It is therefore advisable to combine bright colour accents with a neutral base shade such as white or light grey. Multicoloured concepts can be jazzed up with appropriate home accessories and individual furniture. Colourful walls can also work wonders in the interior, whereby it is advisable to set accents. Smaller, brightly painted areas or selected individual walls in an attractive hue provide for pop highlights without being intrusive.
