Adding color to your interior design is one of the best ways to make an impact inside your custom home. However, it can be a little challenging to pick the right places to add a flourish of color. By using a little creativity and the right hues, you can use the impact of color in a subtle way. Here are four ways to do so.
1. Front Entry Door
One of the easiest ways to add some stand-out color to your custom home is to paint your front entry door! It energizes your entryway and welcomes you home every day. You can either paint the door or leave it neutral, but in either case it’s a great way to add a splash of color without needing to add other accents.
2. Headboards
The bedroom is another great place to incorporate some nice color. One of the ways to do this is with the headboard of your bed. Paint part of the wall to create a virtual headboard or add a colorful real headboard made of a material such as velvet or wool. Also, you can use pillows as accent colors or hang a piece of artwork above the bed for a great effect.
3. Bookcases
Pull the shelving out of your bookcases in the family room or home office and paint the backs with an eye-popping color. This is a good way to add playful hues to your interior design which you can easily change in the future.
4. Lampshades
Light naturally draws the eye, so use this to your advantage and outfit your lamps with colorful lampshades. This is not only effective but also quite inexpensive and easy to replace if you decide you would like to switch up your interior color scheme!
