Shades
The color wheel is conditionally divided into cold and warm colors. According to designers, fashionable wallpaper colors in warm shades createrooms have a cozy atmosphere, but visually reduce it. Cold ones “push” the walls a little. This is due to the different wavelengths of colors and visual perception. Before you make repairs in warm colors in a small room, you need to consider whether there is a desire to visually reduce the dimensions of the room.
Take a chance - choose contrasting colors. Although take your time, hold your gaze longer on the chosen colors, probably, returning to them, you will appreciate that already in the store such trendy modern wallpapers begin to annoy.

Regardless of whether you are ready to look at contrasting wallpapers for a long time, it is advisable not to use them in places where the family mainly rests.
