Painting your home does more than just update its look and improve its appeal. This minor home remodel can protect your interior from water damage by keeping moisture from penetrating walls. Today, you can get paints with low or without volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Moreover, the right hues will boost your mood and make your property more marketable.
Every homeowner will benefit from these interior paint color tricks.
Look for Inspiration
The internet is a great place to seek inspiration for your home renovation projects. You can check paint manufacturers’ websites for ideas on how to use colors in your living space. Some even have online visualizers that allow you to see how certain colors will look on your interior.
Pinterest is a go-to for homeowners who need inspiration for revamping their houses. It lets you create vision boards where you can collect looks that you love. Then, there are also traditional platforms you can check, such as magazines and catalogs.
Create a Color Palette Based on Color Theory
Sometimes, a color wheel is all you need to create the perfect palette for your interior. Turning this little tool will let you know how colors look or blend. Even if you don’t use the exact hues, you can go to a reliable paint store to see shades of those colors.
Get Ideas From Prints or Patterns
What’s the largest or most prominent pattern in the room? You can use that as a reference for your color scheme. Choose colors you like from the print and incorporate them into the rest of your space. Bolder colors will work well on an accent wall. Consider lighter shades from the pattern if you want something subtle for a large room.
Begin With Formal Areas
Start creating a color palette for formal areas first, including your living room, dining room, and entryway. Taking a color from one room to the other is a great way to tie your spaces together.
Get Ideas Outdoors
Greens and blues are colors you see outdoors that you can bring to your space. These hues will give a laid-back feel to your interior. To determine the right shade for you, get samples and see how they look under different lighting conditions. Check how the colors look when the curtains are open and drawn.
