Fernanda Zulzke Interiors - Winter Garden. What feeds our dreams? A corner to write in front of the landscape, read a book, and socialize. From this image, the anteroom and the functional bathroom of 35 m² were born. The classic style guides the visual, starting with the artistic painting of chinoiseries, hand-carved wooden furniture, and ceramic vases and lamps shaped for the project. In the bathroom, the original tiles and mosaics come alive in composition with French wallpaper applied to the walls and ceiling. "Everything celebrates the history of local architecture, with references to the houses of rural France and the vibrant life of Parque da Água Branca," explains the interior designer.

Despite its liveliness, turquoise blue is extremely versatile: it can be used as a highlight in neutral projects, as a protagonist in bold decorations, or in harmonious combinations with earthy tones, metallics, neutrals, or other shades of blue and green.
Turquoise blue can be used in practically all the projects of the house, but it stands out in spaces where energy, creativity, or relaxation is desired. In the living room, for example, the color can appear on walls, cushions, or armchairs, creating a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere. In bedrooms, especially children’s or youth rooms, turquoise contributes to a light and relaxed visual, ideal for stimulating imagination.
Projects such as kitchens and bathrooms also benefit from the refreshing vibe of this color, especially when combined with white finishes or golden details. In offices or home offices, turquoise blue can be used in details to stimulate concentration and creativity without making the space visually tiring.
Painting one or more walls with turquoise blue is a powerful way to instantly transform the project. In living rooms and bedrooms, an accent wall in this color can replace works of art or decorative panels, becoming the focal point of the space.
To maintain visual balance, it is important to choose furniture and accessories in neutral or complementary tones. Colors like white, beige, light gray, and light wood soften the composition, while metallic tones, such as gold and copper, add sophistication. For those looking for something bolder, the combination with coral, mustard, or emerald green can create projects full of personality and style.
Another interesting way to use turquoise blue in decoration is through furniture. A turquoise sofa in a neutral base room can be the element that brings life and color to the space. The same applies to chairs, buffets, dressers, or side tables. The contrast between natural wood and turquoise creates a balance between the rustic and the modern.
Repurposed vintage furniture painted turquoise is also a great idea for DIY projects. The color enhances the retro aspect of these pieces even more, giving the project a bohemian and cozy air. Additionally, the occasional use in furniture avoids excesses and allows for easier future changes, should the style of the house change.

These elements can be easily swapped out according to the season or trend, making turquoise a dynamic choice. Used this way, it functions as a kind of visual "spice" — adding freshness and energy without compromising the neutrality or balance of the space.
