asian colors?

Question

i was thinking of redoing a bedroom that is already an asian theme but just needs some redoing, i want to stick to the asian theme, the dressers are already painted black with crackling red coming through, red and black bedspread, what color should the walls be?

Answer 1

Color of gold (dark yellow). In many Asian cultures, gold signifies nobility and royalty. It also provide a variety to the scheme in your room. Painting the walls black would make the room too dark and red, too gaudy.

Answer 2

Anything, you could go with a grassy looking calm but warm green, a red (slick or matte), or you could wallpaper in a bamboo design or a grassy texture/look but neutral color like beige or cream. For windows, I would consider those paper screens on a horizontal sliding track with wood frames or bamboo shades. I would do at least one accent wall in red, or small splashes such as the doors that face into the room to closet, bathroom...as well as window sills and woodwork.

Another idea would be to paint an accent wall black, then freehand a Chinese or Japanese character onto the wall in red...a symbol that is pleasing to the eye or means something significant to you (happiness, peace, tranquil, harmony, etc)

Answer 3

If there is a great deal of red.. which it sounds like there is.. I would go with a cream colored wall. If the red you have now is say 10% or less of the color in the room, the greenish-gray color that is trendy right now and which is also frequently included in Asian art work would be nice.

Answer 4

Try a light gray, black or red will be far to dark on the walls.

Answer 5

hi i am from iran and my room is just normal. the window opens to the street. the walls are white and the bed and the desk and the bookcase is light brown. on the wall there are alot of paintings . they are from my uncle (he is a famous painter in france) and some from my freinds. i have put all my toys on a shelf and a purple carpet on the floor. i dont like red and black. it seems that you like chinese or japan decoration.

Answer 6

A deep red.

Answer 7

Try a mixture of a grey and a lighter red.

Answer 8

i think a light "bamboo" green would look good since green is the opposite of red.

or grey with strips of black

some gold ornaments or prints on the walls will look good too
