The right paint color will make your home interior shine and express your personality. But with a wide range of shades to select from, this decision can be particularly challenging for some homeowners.
Fortunately, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Burlington County has compiled six essential interior paint color tricks from home remodel experts.
1. Find Inspiration
Finding inspiration is easier today than before when the only things we had were magazines and catalogs. Now, a quick search on the internet can send you to blogs and Instagram and Pinterest accounts full of design ideas for interior spaces. Browse the pictures and save those with interior paint colors that you like. You can create a vision board with these photos and show it to your remodeler during your consultation or planning session.
2. Check the Color Wheel
Understanding color theory can give you an idea of what colors go well together. Check the color wheel and pay attention to the complementary and contrasting colors. You don’t need to use the exact colors you see on the wheel, but you can choose shades of those colors for your interior.
3. Use Neutral Paint Colors
Neutral paint colors work great as a background. But to keep them from being boring, your home renovation contractor can be more creative when using these neutral colors. For example, a striped wall in neutral colors is a clever way to add style while maintaining the relaxed ambiance of the room.
4. Add Color to the Formal Areas
Pick a color scheme for your living room, dining room, and entryway. Then, take one color from the color scheme and use it as an accent in more private areas, like your bedroom or home office. For example, you can select the red sofa in the living room and use a less intense shade as an accent in other parts of your home.
5. Use Colors From a Print Fabric
Take a look at the print on your favorite pillow or bedding. Find a color that you like and use it on an accent wall. This is a fun way of tying your interior elements together.
6. Choose Colors From Dark to Light
Decorate from the floor up and start with darker shades. This means using darker colors for your flooring, mid-tones for your walls, and lighter hues for your ceiling.
