BY ROOM

Even though each person has their own preferences and tastes when it comes to painting their house, there are some basic rules that should be followed to achieve the desired result.

Learn how palette choice can influence the desired ‘look and feel’ you wish to create.

Living room

Adding the right colors is one of the best ways to transform the look of a room. For instance, dark hues like purple can add drama and glamour to a design scheme, while off whites or greys on the other hand, lend a neutral, airy vibe and makes the room seem larger and inviting.

Dining room

When choosing dining room colors, earthy tones like tan or beige tend to be a good choice. These colors convey a feeling of warmth and can create a cohesive and sophisticated look. On the other hand, red promotes liveliness and social interaction, and is also believed to increase appetite.

Kitchen

Most design professionals say that using shades of beige or grey as the foundation for your kitchen, opens up a spectrum of colorful possibilities for your cabinets and countertops. For kitchens with lots of natural light and elevated ceilings, earthy colors would be a great choice.

Bedroom

Consider the size of the bedroom and the atmosphere you want to create before you select a color. Don’t underestimate the impact of clean colors like white or soft tones of green and blue. Associated with cleanliness and simplicity these hues can make a space seem more expansive and inviting.

Bath

For traditional style bathrooms, you should try keeping the color scheme neutral and choose from our wide range of whites & creams. While, for a modern feel, a pale pistachio color or a soft blue are great refreshing options that can be balanced out using white shades in the cabinetry, rug and sink.
