However, do not forget that the same shade of turquoise in different rooms may look different, depending on the chosen lighting system and other colors and shades present in it. Let's look at examples, How does turquoise compare with other colors? what the result is and what effect it has on interior design.
Let's start with such a common classic color combination as turquoise and brown, in which two natural shades (the color of the sky, water and wood) emphasize and complement each other well. This combination will be a great solution for the kitchen, dining room, bedroom and living room. In this case Brown color often represented by natural wooden furniture or good wall decoration.
Turquoise and cream (beige)- pastel color combination, which is ideal for gentle and dreamy natures. Very often, light turquoise is used to create such interiors, since it is he who sets the soft, soothing tone. However, bright turquoise can also be combined with cream and light beige shades, but only in moderation. For example, in a bright turquoise color, you can decorate only one wall, and the rest in pastel colors. It is also better to choose furniture in neutral colors so that the interior does not turn out to be too provocative and clumsy.
Turquoise and white- a light, airy ensemble that creates the impression of freshness and coolness. Particularly good combinations of blurry turquoise and white color, which can be used in absolutely any living space - living rooms, bedrooms, children's rooms, kitchens, dining rooms and even in home offices. However, the bright turquoise color also goes well with white, which emphasizes turquoise, making it even brighter, richer and more sophisticated.
A very interesting and positive color duet is created by turquoise and yellow - two more natural colors that are in perfect harmony with each other. Moreover, this harmony is by no means built on combination, but on contrast. Turquoise and yellow are two contrasting, opposite colors (cold and warm), perfectly shading each other, and thereby emphasizing their best advantages.
Almost the same effect has a combination turquoise and red with the only amendment that red is more aggressive than yellow, so you need to use it more carefully.
Softer and more delicate combinations gives turquoise and pink color - A great option for decorating the room of little girls, teenage girls, girls and young women. Less often such color combinations can be found in living rooms, kitchens and bathrooms.
The perfect combination gives turquoise and purple(lilac, lilac) color, as well as turquoise and green color. Depending on the chosen tonality, such combinations can be both calm and neutral, as well as bright, and even defiant.

How jewelry with this mineral they bring their owner life success, business success, luck and an inexhaustible charge of optimism, so the turquoise color in the interior fills the home atmosphere with cheerfulness, good mood, and positively affects the well-being of the inhabitants of the apartment.

Emerald green, purple, turquoise harmonize inside the weaves of the ornament, but three walls of the room, painted with these tones, will cause severe irritation.
In order to enter a large number of bright bluish-green into the interior, you need to create a suitable opponent for him - the options for white, gray, beige, golden, chocolate and even black will perfectly cope with this task.
