Adding a fresh look to your home with paint color
Remodel any room in your home with a different paint color
When a room needs a facelift, sometimes the only change you really need to make is in the paint color. Drab walls can influence the feel of an entire room, so brightening it with paint can make a world of difference. So before you go spending thousands of dollars on structural changes, first consider remodeling a little more simply – through paint color.
Home color trends are changing rapidly, especially with the popularity of decorating shows such as those appearing on Home and Garden TV (HGTV). Colors are bolder and brighter than they used to be, mimicking the more daring palette seen in designer homes on television….. While soothing earthy colors – oxide red, yellow and pinks – remain popular, homeowners now want complex and warmer tones that work well together….
Paint colors in the home should have longevity, compatibility and be aesthetically pleasing, which is also important when considering your home’s potential resale value…..
… “You want colors to flow. Your rooms can have a lot of personality without being jarring. If you can pull that off, it looks really good.”
Home colors do not change with the season like fashion: instead they must endure while still making a statement about the homeowner’s individuality.
