There is always a time and a place for a splash of creative color or a spread of wild pattern that seeps over the corner of a couch or underneath a coffee table on an area rug. But sometimes electric colors and bright bold patterns just don’t fit with the subdued personality of a space, or of that space’s inhabitants. The five homes in this post, each visualized by Stanislav Borozdinskiy, use neutral colors , natural materials, and soft textures throughout their designs. For some, this might be a perfect blank canvas on which to express oneself through art, rugs, or throw pillows. For others, the zen-like atmosphere of soft grays and creams are all the excitement they need.
With its open floor plan and exposed natural wood ceiling beams, the first space has the feeling of a modern, urban cabin. Overstuffed furniture – in the living and bedroom – along with flying saucer-esque light fixtures provide a comfortable whimsy without ever going too bold.
In the second home, white dominates. A large white sofa stands in contrast to dark brown rugs and walls, which creates an almost regal effect. A bit of exposed wood and brick in the home office has its own rustic charm while the bedroom trends back towards royalty with its canopy bed and chandelier.
White is present again in large quantities in the third space, but here we get just a glimpse of a color as well. The robin’s egg blue backsplash along with the primary colored barstools are the perfect way to bring playfulness into the kitchen while keeping the main living areas starkly neutral.
This next space provides somewhat of an overlap from the previous ones we have seen. A large grey sofa looks familiar while white walls and dark rugs are pulled from other designs as well. The oversized light fixture in the living room is certainly unique as well as practical and white painted brick has its own urban appeal.
In the final home, an aging cream color takes over with a bit of an oatmeal tinge. Some delicate fixtures in the bedroom add a touch of femininity in an otherwise neutral and nearly masculine interior.
