Design in turquoise tones provides space for imagination. This color combines not with everything, but with many shades, and professional decorators have highlighted successful combinations. We will discuss them below.

Chocolate color in combination with turquoise gives an elegant harmony of colors. A particularly successful combination can be considered the use of dark shades and brown derivatives – bitter chocolate, cocoa with turquoise. In such a bedroom, a luxurious interior is created without unnecessary bright spots.

Room finishing

Decorating the room is a necessary and important task for every project. Decorators pay special attention to this.

• Walls
  
  

For wall decoration, white or beige tones are most suitable. Plaster, wallpapers with neutral patterns. Wall color should not be annoying. Homeowners can choose monochromatic walls that look strict and restrained. Or one can select wallpapers with geometric patterns or floral prints. If the walls remain monochromatic, specialists recommend experimenting with the texture of finishing materials, such as liquid wallpapers that combine the advantages of classic rolls and lacquer coatings. The main rule is that turquoise color should not occupy more than one-third of the room space. Excess will be tiring and fatiguing.

• Floor
  

For floor finishing, specialists recommend using natural materials: parquet boards, laminate, wooden flooring. In terms of color palette, white, beige, and brown will look good. Designers almost completely exclude the use of turquoise colors on the floor. Light shades visually expand the room, adding airiness and lightness to the interior.

• Ceiling
  
  

Designers recommend whitewashing or painting the ceiling in the bedroom. White, light beige, and milk colors create balance and harmony in the bedroom. A light ceiling adds extra volume and spaciousness to the room. This approach is particularly relevant for rooms in shadowy areas.

Furniture in the bedroom

The choice of furniture for the bedroom depends on the overall color palette. If the walls are painted in blue, then a white, beige, gray, or brown color cabinet will suit. In this case, turquoise will not overload the interior. If the walls and overall background are neutral, then one can purchase turquoise furniture.

An interesting approach is when combined furniture is selected: a light bed, turquoise bedside tables, and a beige dresser. If the entire palette is kept without brightness, one can brighten the bedroom with vibrant accessories and details. This way, a harmonious color combination is created. Speaking of sizes, specialists recommend not choosing bulky furniture. The exception is the bed, which can also be decorated with ornate details. It is better to place it by the largest wall, leaving space for bedside tables on the sides.

If the bedroom is designed in a classical style, then furniture of strict form with clearly defined lines is chosen. One can choose a canopy as a decoration. If the room is spacious enough, one can place a footstool by the foot of the bed or a soft armchair in the corner. To visually expand the space and give it an elegant, luxurious look, it is better to choose lacquered furniture. For a calm and simple setting, it is better to stop on matte finishes. It should also not be forgotten that all furniture must be as comfortable and practical as possible.

Turquoise curtains in the interior

The choice of curtains is made at the final stage of decorating the bedroom. The color and material depend on the overall style. A predominance of chocolate shades can be balanced with bright turquoise curtains or valances. For the hi-tech style, white-gray shades of curtains will be suitable. There are several principles that significantly simplify the choice of curtains:

1. Dark-colored curtains will create contrast in the interior;
2. Light, sheer fabric effectively highlights the freshness of turquoise shades;
3. Bright curtains will add color to the space;
4. If the walls are decorated with patterned or printed wallpapers, the curtains must reflect the details of the pattern;
5. Curtain accessories: rings, hooks, decorative elements will emphasize the turquoise color and window.

One should select curtains based on the natural lighting in the room. If there is little sunlight, saturated colors are absolutely unsuitable. They will darken a room that is already lacking in light, especially in autumn-winter. Decorators recommend selecting light fabric in a bright color with a small, unobtrusive pattern. This creates a bright and cheerful mood, delighting the homeowners. White curtains against walls of the color of the sea wave – this is the ideal to which designers strive. Speaking about texture, one can choose curtains reaching the floor or curtains with complex elements and draping.

Lighting nuances

Turquoise shades in the interior look differently. Everything depends on lighting: from green to dark blue. The lighting should not be too warm. Natural outdoor light is important. Yellow light can distort the turquoise color beyond recognition. Cold light will highlight the color's strengths. Halogen lamps are the best choice for proper lighting.

Stylistic directions in design

Turquoise shades suit various styles. Lacquered furniture visually expands the space and fits into the hi-tech style. For the Provence and retro styles, furniture with matte finishes in light turquoise tones is better to use. These same preferences apply to the vintage direction. Artfully aged furniture fits perfectly into the room.

One should not forget about accessories. For the shabby-chic style, which suits turquoise perfectly, it is necessary to add decorative pillows in the same tone as the overall style. The more, the better. In the center of the room, one can place a small carpet or a rug on both sides of the bed. Table lamps on bedside tables, a floor lamp on the table, and a ceiling chandelier will complete the style. It is also good to look at tapestries with abstract images, art objects, or family photos in frames.
