It’s no secret that the colors you pick to decorate your home theater with have a bearing on the overall look and feel of the space. You can get as creative as you want with it, really. Home theaters are meant to be a fun space, after all. However, even with the innumerable options for bold, loud colors, the classics still remain one of the best options, especially when it comes to your high-end home theater recliners. What do we mean by “the classics?” We’re talking about those subdued, neutral, fan-favorite-until-the-end-of-time colors that just never seem to go out of style no matter what society latches onto next. Here’s how to work these versatile colors into your home theater.
Neutrals: The Be All End All of Timeless Colors
We can’t talk about timeless color options without mentioning the neutrals—that is, black, white, grey, and beige tones. A lot of the seating you might see online if you’re looking at simplistically luxurious entertainment room seating for sale will probably be in neutral colors. You might find a white media room sofa upholstered in supple leather, a row of black entertainment room recliners that seat up to four, and even media room chaise lounges upholstered in grey microfiber fabric.
Why devote so much time to showcasing the neutrals? It’s simple—they go with everything. Neutral colors are so easily paired with other brighter, bolder colors, that it’s almost impossible to not find some semblance of neutrals in nearly any space. They don’t immediately draw attention like say, a bright red leather multimedia room sectional sofa would. Instead, they draw attention in a different way—something more understated that can still be appreciated, but it keeps the attention on the screen and the room as a whole.
If you’re also looking for a nice leather entertainment room chair that doesn’t break the bank—and one that you can stretch the most life out of—a neutral color is the way to go. Take care of it, and it’ll last you plenty of years down the road, and it’s not going to go out of style, leaving you with an awkward piece of multimedia room furniture that feels dated.
Earth Tones: Warm, Inviting Color Choices
Kind of like neutrals, earth tones are other color choices that just never seem to go out of style when it comes to interior design. Here, we’re thinking about colors like subdued browns, leafy, dark greens, and even wood accents on furniture. Brown entertainment room seating upholstered in premium leather can fit into a lot of different aesthetics and themes, and it does so because it’s incredibly inviting and warm. Paired with other muted, more natural-leaning colors, you can easily create a sanctuary that feels inviting and relaxing the second you step into it.
Similarly, incorporating dark greens into your space can also make it feel just as warm and cozy as other earth tones. For example, a dark green multimedia room seat upholstered in high-end velour, while some might think it belongs to decades past, has actually cemented itself somewhat recently as a new timeless color. It only makes sense—green is an easy color to work with, and it’s an incredibly grounding one at that, bringing to mind nature and the great outdoors.
Other Timeless Colors
While the next two might not be as perfectly easy to match with as some of the previous mentions, they both have an undeniable charm to them, and they’ve been around for ages, earning their place as timeless colors. We’re of course talking about perennial favorites, red and blue.
A great big red leather multimedia room couch can both be the focal point of the room and maintain its timeless status with ease. Paired with matching colors—maybe some tasteful, neutral browns and beiges—it can be quite a beautiful color to have in your home. Not to mention, it’s also an homage to traditional movie theaters that were lined with dozens of rows of six theater chairs in red upholstery and can create a luxurious feel in any home theater.
Similarly, blue is another one of those colors that just doesn’t seem to leave interiors ever. It makes sense, though—it’s a primary color, and like a lot of the others, it’s incredibly easy to match other colors with. Like green, it’s also grounding, calming and promotes relaxation. Which, when styling a home theater, should be at the forefront of the design.
Timeless colors, especially when investing in some top-tier home theater recliners, should not be slept on. Not only do they look sophisticated and classy with little extra effort, they’re going to be a mainstay in your home theater arsenal for years, or maybe even decades, to come.
