Interior design trends are constantly changing. Personal decorating tastes grow and evolve. COLOUR, texture, and pattern styles are as fleeting as the changing seasons.
Neutral investment pieces are always a safe and practical choice. And for some, an entirely neutral space is both elegant and serene.
But, for those who long for a touch of COLOUR in their home, adding a few, well chosen accessories in a favorite hue can be enough to satisfy that need, without making costly changes.
Emerald green cushions sparkle like jewels amidst their soft and creamy surroundings. Consider this room with neutral ACCENTS, and it becomes apparent the impact COLOUR has on a space's style and character.
Fuchsia tea towels and a simple arrangement of fresh flowers provide a pop of delicious COLOUR in this charming kitchen. The powerful effect would be reduced if every accessory in the room was the same shade of shocking pink.
This gorgeous conservatory is completely neutral. Nature provides the only COLOUR in this space, with the addition of luscious ferns and fragrant hydrangeas in full bloom .
This bedroom's plum accent COLOUR makes an appearance in the shimmering window treatments and pillows, exuding a sense of warmth amongst the room's other cool tones. These select textiles can be easily substituted with a softer shade of purple when milder temperatures prevail.
Sapphire ACCENTS were created with a few yards of discount fabric in my own home office. The room's design story can be successfully rewritten by replacing the shimmering blues with another favorite COLOUR, for a fraction of what it would cost to start the entire decorating process all over again.
Keep it simple, and you'll be equally rewarded with style and savings. And who doesn't love a win-win combination!
