colour
Choosing the correct colour for your walls is one of the most important things you can do.
Colour influences the way we feel, sets the mood of a room and really makes a space come alive.
It’s a way of expressing your personality and creativity.
A room dictates whether this should be in the form of a feature wall or all four walls….more about that another time, but here are a few examples of the use of colour using Porters Paint.
I love Porters products for their choice of finishes / colours and versatility.
Another tip when using solid colour is to break it up by placing something of complimentary colour against it/ or in front of it.
For example, a hall table in redwood against a warm charcoal feature wall. Add a vase of flowers in whites and soft greens, a few interesting objects scattered on the table in complimentary sizes and shapes and you have a visually stimulating corner.
Lighting also plays a big part in enhancing a good wall colour.
I’ll be dedicating a comprehensive article to the use of lighting in achieving optimum results later on, but here are a few inspirational shots to excite your creative senses.
