The furniture is cherry wood. What color to paint the kid's room?

ADVICE

Reader's question:

What color to choose for the kid's room? The furniture is cherry wood. I want something distinctive without being showy.

Our answer:

Your question is rather vague and we would need more information on your kid's age and sex, the natural light of the room, your preferences, etc.

Nevertheless, we propose you two neutral tones that are suitable for all ages and respond well under different conditions of lighting. 

  • Neutral green: The green is a calm color that will help your kid focus and relax. The specific tone is pale and neutral but at the same time is unique and interesting. It can be combined with the majority of colors, textures and materials.

  • Cream yellow (caramel cream) The specific tone is sweet, warm, light and optimistic. Suitable for all ages even for teenagers.

The kid's room is purple but we are planning to change it. What do you suggest?

ADVICE

Reader's question:

"In two months our second child arrives, a boy. The first child is a boy, 2,5 years old. The decoration of the room is inspired by Winnie and the walls are painted purple. Furniture and the wardrobe are painted in the tones of vanilla. Several elements (curtains, quilt, rug) have different colors like lime and blue. Next week we are planning to paint the room and we are thinking about the new colors. Colors that we like, are the purple, the lime, the light blue and the white. We want something happy, vivid and original."
