Colour Cohesive Interiors Under 55 Sqm (With Floor Plans)

Single colour accents create strong cohesion within these two modern home interiors, which each measure up at just under 55 square metres (600 square feet). We begin our cohesive colour journey with an orange dashed interior that includes a bold orange infused kitchen and an energised orange bathroom design. We switch to the opposite side of the colour wheel for our second home tour, where blue elements build a calming atmosphere that spans a full spectrum of shades. Modern black fixtures and fittings give both interiors some weight, whilst glowing lighting schemes set an intimate mood. Check out the floor plans at the end of each tour for more spatial inspiration.

Pumpkin orange accents light up the grey and taupe interior of our first featured home tour. A bright kitchen backsplash blazes across the back of the open plan living room, whilst pumpkin spice scatter cushions tone the accent down a notch. A neutral modern sofa and matching ottoman balance out the bolder colour infusions.

A textured rug softly outlines the simple lounge area. A minimalist wraparound end table serves the L-shaped sofa. See more ideas for unique end tables here.

Wood panelling makes a warming TV wall covering, which is accentuated by the cosy glow of recessed LED perimeter lights. A white TV stand makes a clean and crisp addition to the statement wall, adorned with a contrasting black vase.

Behind the lounge, the room morphs into a dining spot with a small round dining table and modern chairs.

The grey and orange L-shaped kitchen folds around the eating area, where both zones benefit from the balcony door’s influx of light.

Ribbed texture adds an extra dimension to the orange kitchen backsplash, which increases contrast with the smooth black countertop.

A custom hall tree and entryway bench combo is designed with a nook for conveniently kicking shoes away underneath.

A backlit full length mirror gently illuminates the corridor and encompasses a handy entryway shelf, where a reed diffuser emits a welcoming scent.

The platform bed is pushed to one side of the compact bedroom layout. A glass wall helps to expand the sense of space.

A modern wall sconce lights a floating bedside table and a chic black decorative vase.

In the kid’s room, a cosmic wall design enlivens a black bedroom scheme with golden accents.

Golden yellow accessories break up the black bed set.

Despite the black statement wall, the single bedroom is a bright affair with light wood elements and clean white furniture.

A stacked desk and shelf combination makes up a comfortable kid’s study by the window.

A creative shelving solution is installed to display plants and decorative items across the TV wall.

Orange accents dance through black bathroom tile, releasing bursts of energy. Black linen baskets tuck away in the shadows of a modern vanity.

An illuminated vanity mirror ignites extra glow over the fiery orange tile arrangement.

A sharp contrast of white tiles surround the bathtub, merging it with the ice white vanity.

The tonal divide laps the perimeter, with dramatic dark elements up top and a clean cut blank canvas below.

Orange seat cushions take the home’s lively accent colour to a set of modern outdoor chairs on the balcony.

A barbecue and a set of decorative outdoor shelves turn the small balcony into a cosy area for entertaining.

Our second home tour is a 54 square metre apartment in Moscow, Russia, which is coloured by calming blue infusions. An abstract painting picks up the cool blue colour of a small sofa, and complements a black plant stand, side table and desk.

The black desk is matched by a black swivel chair, speakers and a black desk lamp so that the entire home office area merges into one solid silhouette.

An aquarium stands at each side of the window seat, creating a frame of living colour.

Blue cushions colour the window seat itself. A slatted fascia lets out heat from the radiator.

On the opposite side of the room, slatted room dividers subtly separate off part of the floor area as a practical home entryway, without cutting off perceivable space or light.

An open doorway connects the lounge to the kitchen diner, where modern dining chairs carry the blue accent through.

Indoor plants add an uplifting essence to the kitchen and dining area, filling the window sill and wall shelves with texture. A dome dining pendant light drops a black accent into the mix.

A black table darkly dominates the dining arrangement and dual colour kitchen.

In the enclosed balcony, wood stats create a decorative backdrop for an inviting armchair. A grey knitted pouf compliments the chairs colourway, whilst a blue accent cushion adds a colourful pop.

Unique modern wall sconces provide mood lighting to a blue and brown bedroom scheme, where they flank an elegant platform bed with a tufted headboard design.
