1 Room, 4 Ways to Introduce Colour

Have you always deferred to white walls and subtle trims? Ready to refresh your space without a complete overhaul? Colour has the power to lift energy and mood and is one of the most affordable ways to renovate without completely blowing your budget. But where to begin? From all out colour commitment to subtle yet striking tweaks, we’ve compiled 4 ways to get your colour on…
Unleash the Paint
Choose a room and go all out in 1 colour, ceiling included (yes really). This approach creates a seamless, enveloping effect, making small spaces feel cozy and intimate. The uninterrupted flow of colour can also visually expand a room. In high-traffic areas like lounges or kitchens, it makes a serious style statement, injecting energy and enthusiasm for all who visit.
Colour Block
Colour blocking is a trend proven to have major staying power. Experiment with pairing complementary shades, like blues and pinks or greens and yellows, on adjoining walls. Or paint the bottom half of your walls a fun colour and the top half a more neutral tone. This way you maximise light in the space and artworks or photos on the top half of the walls don’t get lost.

Window Dressing
Painting window and door frames is a stylish way to trim a room without fully committing to all over colour. It can also ground a larger more neutral space that might otherwise feel too vast and formless.
Is That an Accent?
Nervous to fully commit but want to make a statement? Try 1 accent wall. A feature colour will bring an element of playfulness and excitement to any space. Ideal for dining rooms and office spaces. An even more modern alternative is a statement arch. Just make sure to measure it out correctly so the effect is symmetrical and pleasing to the eye.
