As you plan out your interior remodeling project, one of the first things to do is to choose a particular color scheme. Sometimes, this can be as easy as applying it to different design elements of your interiors. You also won’t have to limit the colors to your walls, after all, as they can flourish through other interior features such as your appliances or pieces of furniture.
But first, establish a “base” color. This makes it easy to choose a good color scheme to decorate your home’s interiors. To help you out, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno shares more insight:
Finding the Right Color Scheme
If you’re looking for color inspiration in your interior renovation, check out different lifestyle magazines and catalogs. Online retailer sites and other paint brands can also provide color scheme ideas. Many follow the basics of color theory, so it helps to understand its principles if you want the perfect scheme for your interior decoration.
Do you live near a body of water or have a beautiful and well-maintained landscape? Your home’s immediate surroundings can be used as inspiration when creating a color scheme for your interior home renovation. When you bring in some of the color elements that remind you of the outdoors, your home interiors feel cozier and more relaxing.
Helpful Color Tips to Keep in Mind
- Follow a Dark to Light Color Decoration
No matter which color scheme you choose, there’s a simple way to use it without taking much risk in your home’s interior. By applying the colors vertically from dark to light, you get a more sophisticated look that can easily enhance your interior’s visual appeal! You can do this by applying the darker shades of your chosen color scheme on the flooring and carpets, while the medium values can be used for the walls, cabinets, chairs, and bedding. The light values and other complementary colors of your scheme can be applied to the ceiling, lighting fixtures, and so on.
- Take a Few Colors From Your Interior Pieces
Another way to create the perfect interior color scheme is to take some colors from your patterned upholstery, carpets, or even some of your favorite artwork. You can apply their complementary colors to add more vibrant hues throughout your home’s interior. This can make a big difference if you have walls and ceilings in neutral colors since you’re turning it into something appealing yet unique to your design preferences!
