Decorating Your Home With Colour Palettes For a Peaceful and Calm Home
With spring in full bloom and summer on the way, you may be looking to refresh your decor to match the new season. If you’re not so keen on bold and bright colours but still want to spruce up your home with calming and tranquil shades, then keep reading for some inspiration.
To create peace and harmony in your home, the trick is to blend calming colours to create a relaxed, calm space that turn your home into a haven for easy living. Some of the best, easy living colours are the ever-popular neutrals. To avoid looking too plain, you can add gentle accent colours that can be easily changed and updated depending on current trends.
Boost productivity with coastal blues
Coastal calm colours featuring muted seaside shades are ideal for any family area, including the dining room and lounge, to create a laid-back fresh atmosphere in what might be a busy space.
Paired with airy shades of white and cream, coastal colours will make a great addition to the busier areas in your home. Subtle blue shades are even proven to stimulate your mind which can boost your productivity, making it a perfect addition to your office space.
Inject a garden-fresh colour palette
If you are looking for a more tranquil atmosphere for your bedroom, a garden-fresh colour palette might be what you are looking for. Working in harmony with the stunning Grandhome countryside, you could try using muted shades of forest green with lighter colours to create a fresh-picked palette to calm your personal space.
A good option is to begin with neutral walls and white bedding, to allow gentle green accents to take centre stage and be interchangeable depending on the season.
