How to use colours in your outdoor space.

20/7/2021

In outdoor decoration, whether for a terrace or a garden, the choice of colours is essential.

Basic decoration can offer a stylish look and give you a fantastic harmony that gives us a feeling of rest and comfort.

If we choose the wrong colours we can ruin everything even if we try to have a worked style.

PATIO TGF offers below the 3 basic rules that must be taken into account when choosing the colours of our outdoor space.

Keep reading if you want to know how to choose the colours in the decoration of your outdoor space.

1 - "60 - 30 - 10" Rule

The decoration department of PATIO uses this simple rule of 3 to create new styles and introduce colours in any environment. ! It is very simple and never fails!

These numbers will tell us the percentage of colour that has to predominate in a space.

- 60% would be the predominant colour of the space to be decorated.

- 30% the secondary colour.

- 10% the accent colour.

It is very easy. You only need to introduce 3 maximum colours in the decoration and its proportion to get an aspect in balance and harmony.

2 - Harmony of colours by analogy.

Analogue colours are those that have a common denominator such as white, blue and grey. Harmony is guaranteed.

In this case, The PATIO TGF team offers you this wonderful set of corner sofas in textilene (QUT Model), total white look and beautiful blue and blue tones.

A wonderful space where you can enjoy and relax outdoors.

3 - Harmony of colours by contrast.

To achieve a different style with strength and balance, you just need to use the colours yellow, orange or green.

In the following picture you can see an example of this kind of decoration with Newave sofas.
