Add Color into your Home the Right Way
Posted on March 24, 2020
With spring comes cleaning and reevaluating our homes. You may have found that the beiges and grays of last year just aren’t cutting it now. Adding in colors to an existing palette can turn boring into beautiful. It can be tricky to work with existing colors and layouts. The prospect of dealing with the intricacies turns off novice painters so they end up skipping the project. Fret not! Our pros have put together these tips to help you add color to your home the right way.
Blue and White
Blue and white are a never fail color combination that looks fresh and clean. By adapting the hues to deeper blue and cream, the warm and spring like colors turn regal and elegant.
When in doubt go with a blue and white color scheme.
Monochromatic
Working with variances of the same shade is one way to make sure your room pops. Try an ombre accent wall in the same colors the room has already been painted. Varying the shades allows you to dabble in the deep, dark color without committing to the whole room or wall in it.
Home Color Palette
For bigger renovations, pick a color palette you like and work it throughout the home. Pay attention to eye sight lines and where rooms intersect. This will give your home a magazine worthy style with little work on your part.
White
It seems simple, but use white. The color is crisp and clean while bringing a freshness to rooms. Try placing it in unexpected places, like on statement furniture or island cabinetry.
Patterns
Working with a pattern is a creative way to use the same two colors in a unique look. Keep the rest of the room in a neutral color to avoid overstimulation.
Accents
Incorporating color can be as simple as adding it through accessories. Look for colors in patterned pillows, throws and rugs that work with your existing wall color. This is a convenient way to change up the feel of the room since you can easily change them out when you’re ready.
