“Brighten up your
ceilings”
Colours transmit feelings, emotions and most of all add life to
a place. The right selection has a considerable impact on the
spirit of a room. Ceilings are often neglected whereas they have
a primordial role to play: they help define spaces, facilitate
circulation, redimension rooms, create atmospheres…
With this in mind, Eurocoustic has developed the new Eurocolors
range, a wide spectrum of colours offering a multitude of
decorative combinations. This mix and match is applicable to
both panels and structure: one can play the contrast or
harmonisation. In this guide, through themes, you will discover
the whole of the Eurocolors range: declined in 48 tints, it bestows
a unique nature onto your room.

Bright tints
Bright colours convey good feelings and happiness.
They attract attention and can be used to guide or lead
to openings and help set off spaces.
Colours & Architecture
A predominant colour used on several surfaces such as walls
and floors, will facilitate circulation in offices.

Subtle harmonies
Choosing a strong coloration will largely influence the
mood of the room. Warm or deep, it will help create
privacy. Cold or light, it adds spacial dimension.
Monochrome nuances
Nuances of a similar shade are enticing as they convey
a feeling of comfort and contribute to a peaceful
atmosphere.
Colours & Architecture
The successful harmony of 3 shades is dependent
on the ratio of the chosen colours. For example, the
dominating chosen colour can cover up to 80% of the
surface.
Colours & Architecture
Kind to the eye, nuances can help structure large spaces
in a discreet and elegant way.

Neutral colours
When the environment is vacant or unfriendly, neutral
tints can have a calming effect. Light blues or greys are
at the heart of an achromatic combination and inspire
confidence. Even with touches of vivid tints, cold colours
can retain their calming sensation.
Warm tints
Deep colours lend vigor to reflection and are stimulating for
team work.
Colours & Architecture
Choosing colour will help create volumes and perspectives to
maximise the space in a room.

Touches of brightness to

Natural colours
In an environment which can be noisy, natural colours may
contribute to serenity and good working conditions.
Colours & Architecture
It is possible to artificially recreate perspective or working
spaces by choosing neat rather deep colours in the
forefront and desaturated tints to distance other levels.

Colours as a reflection of identity
Shops or Boutiques are the visual identity of a brand.
Colour is an essentiel part of a strong image.
Colours & Architecture
A single colour or a reduced harmony of tints can be the
extension of the logo and help with the memorisation of the
brand through the display.

A combination of bright colours
Bright colours attract attention. Used together, they
structure and valorise key areas in large spaces.
Awakening of emotions
The contrast most often used, is normally composed
of 2 complimentary colours on the chromatic circle:
however there exist other more subtle combinations
such as warm-cold, light-dark, with varied textures or
finitions.
Colours & Architecture
Mixing several colours within a large space, can help
segment it in various areas thereby guiding the visitors.
Colours & Architecture
A strong and dense colour should be
preferred when character
needs to be added to a
room. In a mat finish,
colour absorbs light and
can thus gain a strong
impact whereas with
a glossy finish, it
reflects it and
strengthen the
brightness of the tints.

Shades of blue
In an environment often prey to disturbance, a calming
effect can be achieved throught light blue or nearly grey
tints. It is essential that touches of bright colours used to
complement the soft shades are in equal amount: an over
abundance of bright colours might create an undesirable
atmosphere.
Colours & Architecture
A colour should be chosen keeping in mind the function of
the room in which it will be used. In a classroom, this choice
can vary according to the age range of the pupils: perception
of colours changes from primary school, to college, to
university.

Greys
Greys are normally associated with rigor, neutrality but
also technology.
Colours & Architecture
Greys are particularly adapted in rooms where
concentration is essential. Vivid colours in small
touches can be used to
add cheerfulness and
crispness to rooms
otherwise rather stale.

Hallways / Halls /
Gymnasium
Vivid and intense colours
Hallways and areas where physical activity is involved,
are suitable to receive vivid and intense colours which
are linked to movement. Whatever the colour range
chosen, it is important to find the right balance between
opacity and saturation of the mix. This will give the
room more versatility and make
it suitable on a physical,
psychological and
social level to the
congregation of
people.
The wood effect
In the musical world, wood is traditionally present in many
musical instruments with it various shades of brown,
chestnut…
Colours & Architecture
One may want to give more intimacy to an area: the
use being made of the space, as is the case for music
rooms, often generates a particular desire such as
snugness or closeness. Dense and
deep colours have the ability
to draw the space inward
and procure a sense of
belonging and safety.

Dining halls
Nature & Natural
Dabs of floral colours (rose, fuscia, yellow, orange…) have a
tendency to enhance the culinary pleasure of children and
teenagers.
Colours & Architecture
Areas dedicated to eating and resting are suitable to receive
colours with an average saturation which are linked to
intellectual sharpness.

convey a feeling of warmth and exhuberance.

stimulating and will boost the curiosity and playfulness of little
ones, while helping to mark out play zones.

Vivid and welcoming colours
The stronger pastel colours are particularly suitable for
receptions and hallways. They convey both welcome
and sociability.
Colours & Architecture
The declination of tints personalises each space and
helps the localisation of areas: for example, visitors are
better able to orientate themselves in various services
throughout an hospital.

Doctor’s surgery
Pale shades
Soft shades are ideal for surgeries. They convey
calmness and peacefulness.
Colours & Architecture
Delicate shades tend to create a feeling of space and
luminosity. They can be reinforced by small splashes of
bright colours to increase the warmth and intimacy of the
room, to the benefit of relationship between doctor and
patient.

White is the colour
Tints close to white are generally associated with purity,
cleanliness and space. They attract and transmit natural
and artificial light.
Colours & Architecture
Laboratories, by definition, are rooms where light must
be perfectly balanced. The intrinsic nature of light
whether from a natural or artificial source, is essential for
the colour impact and whatever the tint chosen, when
close to white, it will bring the expected comfort.

Waiting rooms
Pale tints
For elegant and calming combinations, use pale tints: this
kind of mix is a perfect alternative to achromatic colours.
Colours & Architecture
For small waiting rooms, the choice is for more pronounced
shades: they offer a new dimension, a strength which will
not be achieved with lighter colours.

Ballet rooms
Nostalgia and stimulation
Ballet rooms are by excellence, places for expression and
reflect dream and poetry. Chromatic light or vivid colors can
be combined with the wood from the flooring to achieve
either nostalgia or quirkiness.
Colours & Architecture
Whether the room is dedicated to classical or modern
dance, a pallet of tones, hues and intensity can be reached
through thoughtful lighting. Intimate or bold, light dances
with shadows to bring out colours and give them depth.

In cinema and theaters, the main actor is the show: subtle
lighting puts it to the forefront. The marriage between an
electric red and a mysterious black draws the eyes to the
performance on stage.

dense, deep, neutral colours.
