Daring with colour is not for everyone. And above all, it’s not easy. When you want to change, there is always the fear that the result will be far from what you hoped for. But 2021 seems to be all about colour. Both in fashion and in the design of our homes.
A small taste of this trend has been given to us by Pantone, which has chosen not one but two colours as the colour of the year: grey and yellow. Shades that together generate a lot of light and harmony. So, if you too would like to create colour in your home but don’t know how, don’t worry! We at Realigro will show you how simple it is to dare with colour. By following some small but fundamental steps. Above all to avoid tacky results.
So, if you’re ready, we can start!
Did you know that using well-defined colours can help convey feelings of well-being? Science says so, and has listed the characteristics of every shade in existence! From the lightest colours to the most intense shades. For beginners in the field, we recommend using the first type of colour. If, on the other hand, you want to make a real change to your home, well follow the next few lines carefully!
Daring with colour can also be useful if you want to restore a piece of furniture. The best way to give it new life is to change the colour. Obviously, this depends on the type of material that is being changed. Pay attention to this detail. Because every material needs a specific paint. That will give a different result based on this.
Whether it’s a frame, a piece of furniture, a door, it doesn’t matter. The important thing is to bring light and colour into your home!
As we said before, paint can be a valuable aid in the mission of restyling your home. But what if we’re not so handy with paint? Then go for colourful decorations! Such as flowers and plants. In both cases, these are small elements that can really bring colour into your home. Daring to use colour will not seem so difficult. If you add a little bit of green in your home, your mood will also benefit.
If you are creative but don’t have a green thumb, there is another solution: coloured appliances. Multicoloured appliances were very popular in the 1960s. Especially in neutral environments. As already mentioned in a previous guide, this trend is back. So if you want to be daring with colour, go for an appliance. The result will turn the whole room upside down!
For the rest, focus on curtains and fabrics, as well as frames and other accessories. If you want to be sure that you have created perfect matches, remember the golden rule: look at the Itten circle! Use colours that are close to each other or diametrically opposed. Together they will create a beautiful eye-catcher. Daring with colour has never been easier!
