30 ideas for using colors and prints in decoration

Combine colors and prints it may seem difficult, but it is an aesthetic asset that can bring a lot of personality, especially when it comes to decoration. To succeed in this task, it is enough to think of combinations that have harmony and talk to each other.

Below, we separate a few tips to make it look good when it comes to mixing colors and prints in your home decor.

1. Same shade

A smart tip for those who are starting to do this type of combination, and still don’t feel completely comfortable, is to choose one color as a base and invest in prints with similar or even similar shades.

This way it is more difficult to make mistakes and create an overloaded environment, as the tones will harmonize with each other, but be careful! Depending on the shade chosen, the inclusion of very strong prints can leave the space with a lot of information. In this case, common sense and personal taste will guide you in the best way.

2. Invest on a neutral basis

In an environment with lighter tones, mixing colors and prints in furnishings is an easy way to give grace without losing sophistication. Also, the chances of making a mistake and leaving the space overloaded are very slim.

3. Use colors and textures on the walls

Decorating the walls is a creative way to create a different and elegant composition. Showcasing brick, wallpaper, stickers, or even a mix of paints are options to consider.

4. Choose contrasting and non-contrasting colors

Mixing colors, especially when it comes to furniture, can be done freely, as long as the colors contrast and do not conflict with each other. Include more neutral prints here.

One smart tip is to use earth tones, which are more concentrated colors that are full of personality and easy to match.

The choice of color palette for the living room, dining room, kitchen and family room, and even the office was defined by the choice of modular units in the kitchen and the pattern of wood used for the doors sliding panels.

The environment that welcomes parents and children transitions between the social and the intimate.  A wooden swing and folding mattresses invite you to relax.  Ensuring an intimate atmosphere, the coir pendants create a welcoming atmosphere and complement the indirect lighting.














The small kitchen, which occupies the place of what used to be a balcony, has proved to be functional.  The module placed under the stone houses the oven and the dishwasher and, above the sink, the upper cabinet houses the dish drainer, leaving free space for use on the worktop.




The living room and veranda are welcoming spaces and, of course, pair with a coffee break.




Although surrounded by a glass enclosure, the porch has been given a porcelain tile suitable for the outdoor area.
