Any good designer will tell you that a neutral palette can be a great backdrop needed to create a well-curated interior. However, “this year we have seen a significant shift away from neutrality in interior designs and step towards bright, bold and colorful shades”, Décor Aid CEO.
Subtle enough to not overwhelm and outshine your space’s current color scheme, yet just as eye-catching painting the inside of your bookshelves is a great way to wake up any of your rooms without overshadowing the other decor. Both options will draw visitors in and bring a sense of newness to your home if it needs a breath of fresh air.” David G.
If you have a gallery of art displayed in your home already or are thinking of adding one, you should know this is an amazing opportunity to add a pop of color to your room. Statement blues, tonal reds, and energizing oranges are shades that would make for a brilliant gallery backdrop.
In other words, painting a gallery backdrop in vibrant shades helps create an eye-catching focal point. Painting your doors, window frames and trim lets you integrate a bolder color, such as red, in just the right amounts. “Painting window frames and trim in colors that are bright and airy will lead the eye to the natural light coming in. Before 2018 started, most designers were predicting the end of the neutral color dominations, which meant many would be saying goodbye to the classic, traditional all-white kitchen. No need to worry about color clashing because vibrant shades like crimson or marmalade will look great with pre-existing hues and materials already found in your space. V or tonal reds will subtly compliment various wood tones, stainless steel, and other mixed metals as well as stones like quartz and granite.
Incorporating your art into your home can seem like a daunting task for some, but it doesn’t have to, and it’s worth a try because through the pieces you curate, you can revamp a space and give it the color it was missing. There is no need to worry about what kind of art to go with, visit galleries, then when shopping let choose a colorful piece that speaks to you the most.
