 <\/p>\n

Blue And Sandstone<\/h2>\n

If you have a neutral brown room, try enhancing the calm by adding a blue toned accent wall. A creamy blue in the neutral blues will give you a beachy vibe without the sand.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Green And Brick<\/h2>\n

If you are working with a brick accent, match it with a deep forest green. The hardness of the brick will be offset with the relaxing green. A deep color gives the room an air of richness creating a space that is equally perfect for reading or having an after dinner drink.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Navy, Brown And Pink<\/h2>\n

When working with traditional pastels of childrens\u2019 rooms, don\u2019t shy away from a bold choice. A rich and deep navy or brown can be perfectly paired with baby pink or blue. The darker colors make the room suitable for an older child or perfect for a guest room. The color combination is equal parts striking and warm.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Black, White And Pebble Gray<\/h2>\n

Play with levels of color within black and white. A white room is easily brought on trend with the addition of a gray or black wall. This is especially popular in living rooms, particularly around fireplaces. Not brave enough for black? Try colors like slate, peppercorn or pebble gray to dip your toe in.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Blue And Cream<\/h2>\n

You don\u2019t always have to paint an accent wall one solid color. The internet is teeming with ideas for abstract geometric accent walls. Try painting bright blue boxes to match a cream room. Get creative with a teal chevron wall. Some tape and a level will give you endless opportunities.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Candy Red And Light Sapphire<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re working in a room with natural elements, add rich candy red or light sapphire. The jewel tones pair nicely with white walls, wooden cabinets or floors. When working with colors that are both rich and bright, remember not to overdo it. Red and blue are best left to accent walls.<\/p>\n

Dark Clay With Pastel Blue And Pink<\/h2>\n

Another option to update those pastel blue and pink nurseries is to add a dark clay wall. The warm undertones are a welcoming color. The richness of the clay will add an air of class. Accentuate the scheme with whites in paint or accessories to tie it all together.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Black, White And Blonde<\/h2>\n

Take a plain white room and add a black wall. For a teen room, try a black chalkboard wall to allow their own creativity. The colors are classics for a reason, they offer contrast and allow the accent to shine through. Make the room style central by adding warmth to the room with blonde wood furniture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bright Pink, Blonde And Green<\/h2>\n

Please your tween girl with bubblegum and millennial pink. Tone down the brightness with a light green and create a space you both can enjoy. If your teen is in the market for new furniture, blonde and light tones are best to create a friendly feel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rich Blue And Soft Browns<\/h2>\n

Don\u2019t just think accent in the form of walls. Bring your accent color to the floor or ceiling. Use a dark color on a ceiling with white or light walls. Your room will feel open and create contrast. Rich blues work well on ceilings when paired with soft brown or greige walls. Keep the accessory colors simple.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yellow, Black And White<\/h2>\n

Pair canary yellow, black and white together for a warm, happy feel. Avoid the bumblebee feel by using the white on the walls and ceiling, and create a yellow accent wall. Bring in the black in unexpected places, like painting the back of a bookshelf black.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Brown With Black And White<\/h2>\n

Kitchens have a color scheme all their own. You have to account for the cabinet color in your color palette. Use the brown of wooden cabinets to pair with white and black walls and counters. Take your kitchen up a level by adding panelling of black or white, to create a natural feel under the color. The grouping is a modern and classic kitchen with style.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Earth Tones<\/h2>\n

Take a nod from the outdoors. Use colors of the sky and ground to create a workable palette for your home. Use white and neutral beiges to paint your room. Reserve one wall for a soft blue. Natural fabrics finish off your look to bring the outdoors inside.<\/p>\n

Mint and Charcoal Black<\/h2>\n

When working in an office, try to think practically. A chalkboard wall could be incredibly useful, whether it\u2019s jotting down a phone number or wireframing the biggest projects. Lighten the room and inspire your brain with mint green. It\u2019s a calming contrast that is conducive to work and creativity.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Grays With Peanut Brown<\/h2>\n

Gray and light brown are usually relegated to accent walls. Choosing a brown that has warm tones to it creates a welcoming environment. Pair the color with a contrasting gray to create a spa-like space. Extra points if your accent wall is a gradient of gray.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Soft Blues And Grays<\/h2>\n

Contrast doesn\u2019t have to be dramatic to make a statement. Try a light blue or a soft gray in a white room to create a stylized accent wall. The colors are soft and welcoming. You\u2019ll get a relaxed room that is more than just white.<\/p>\n
