Architects Transform Interiors with Bold Colours and Surface Tricks

Architects are turning to bold colour choices and surface tricks to transform interiors. Virginia Siragus' Milan apartment, designed by Daniele Daminelli, showcases this trend with a green colour-drenching effect. Meanwhile, Melissa Antonius, dubbed 'the one with the colours', employs the same technique in her private space using Farrow & Ball hues.

Daminelli's trick involves alternating matte, glossy, and highly glossy surfaces to create brightness in Siragus' apartment. This technique works with all colour shades, from light nuances to dark tones, adding depth and dimension to the space.

In Berlin-Charlottenburg, architects Victoria von Gaudecker and Axel Hofstadt embraced the colour-drenching trend in an old building. Similarly, Victoria-Maria Geyer created a vibrant yellow living room in a Brussels villa using two shades of yellow for contrast and rhythm.

Thibaut Picard transformed a Paris apartment by combining small rooms into larger spaces, each with a dominant colour. He used dark blue for the bedroom and striking coral for the living room, demonstrating how dark tones can make even small apartments appear spacious.

From Milan to Paris and Brussels, architects are harnessing the power of colour and surface tricks to create striking interiors. Whether it's Virginia Siragus' green apartment or Melissa Antonius' colour-drenching private space, these designs prove that bold colour choices can transform any room.
