Four Ways to Find the Right Color Pallet for Your Home
Choosing Your Colors
When choosing your colors, it is best to look at a color wheel instead of all the paint colors at the store. Primary colors are red, blue, and yellow, while secondary colors are orange, green, and purple. Tertiary colors are a mixture of primary and secondary colors to create different hue variations.
Creating Your Color Scheme
Your color scheme should be an extension of your personality. Here are the four color schemes to choose from:
Monochromatic uses tone on tone of the same color with black and whites
Analogous uses colors that are next to each other on the color wheel
Contrast is a more dramatic look using contrasting colors like red and purple, blue and green
Complementary is when two opposing colors like blue and orange are used for high energy, bold vibe
Things to Consider
Pick your wall colors in coordination with your existing furniture. Also, test out your paint colors with samples to see how they connect and flow with each other. Lighting also plays a huge factor in how your wall colors will look throughout the day.
Where to Start?
Pick a central room or hallway to begin your color scheme in, letting your likes and dislikes define the space and branch out from there. Some suggestions to help your rooms flow better together are to paint hallways, landings, and connecting spaces in neutral colors or tones.
