What colors are better to use?
The pastel color palette is used in the design of the children's room, giving the atmosphere special softness and charm. The Provence style is characterized by white color and its shades, for example, vanilla, milk or ivory. Powder, blue or ash-pink color will perfectly complement the interior.
Light wood shades, as well as beige, lavender, cream, caramel, mint, olive and pale yellow tones, are very popular.
Despite the fact that Provence loves a muffled range, the nursery can be diluted with bright colors. They will help to bring warm notes to the nursery and add interesting coloring to it. Lemon, sunflower, mustard, terracotta and red shades are suitable for colorful impregnations.
The delicate, whitened coloring of the interior in the Provence style evokes associations with the sky, sea and sun. Such a tinted solution is perfect for small rooms, forms a peaceful atmosphere in the children's bedroom and has a positive effect on the psyche of the child.
The choice of furniture for the nursery
In a children's room in the Provence style, cabinet furniture with facades decorated with various inserts, moldings, panels, murals or hand carvings will be beneficial. Furniture elements in the form of beds, bedside tables and cabinets can have a simple and at the same time elegant design.
The berth is a natural wood structure or a metal model with a wrought iron headboard and curved legs. An ideal option for a nursery is a wooden wardrobe, chest of drawers, a desk and chairs with the effect of aging. Toys and other little things can be stored in wicker baskets, chests or crates of twigs.
The furniture set made of light wood, such as chestnut, cherry, walnut, ash or oak, will bring a special flair to the design of a children's room in Provence. To preserve the natural texture, the wood is impregnated with wood stain and use a coating in the form of varnish or wax.
