Revitalize Your Interior Walls
By David Chandler, Fri Dec 9th
Most people would like to revitalize their interior walls withsome colorful paint, but are too afraid to make the leap fromoff-white or beige. The homeowner is afraid that a daring colorchoice may not match their furniture, will be too bright, andhave a host of other reasons. Painting your walls is a basic element of design and can enhanceany room for only $50. Your furniture and artwork can take on anew look with a designer flare just by painting your walls. So, the first question you may ask is how do I choose the rightcolor? Below are some recommendations to help you choose.
The first recommendation is to choose a tinted neutral. Insteadof choosing rich, deep colors for your first project, you willlikely feel more comfortable with a neutral color such as beigeor gray and thus will not date the room or create a jarringpalate that you will easily tire of. At your local home improvement store, you will be faced with asea of color swatches - hundreds of versions of basic beige andgray to choose from. So before you visit your local paint store,consider these steps in choosing the right color for you. If you like the feel of a warm and cozy room - think offireplaces, brown leather and sunsets - then you'll want tostart with a beige tone. Now, consider your furniture and accessories.
What colors do yousee? If you have a lot of black or navy, you may wish to choosebeige with orange or pink undertones to keep the look warm. Ifyou have browns or reds in your furniture, select cooler beigewith ashy tones to avoid 'overheating' your room. If you prefer a cooler, airy look - chrome, glass, and shades oficy blue - then select gray tones. Some stores will have a 'truegray' color swatch which you can use to compare with theirdesigner selections. On comparison, you will notice that eachgray has undertones. Some will have blue or lavender tones;others may have green or even a hint of pink. Using the same guide as stated above, identify the main colorsof furniture and accessories in the room. Use green or pinktoned grey with cool toned furnishings to avoid it from feelinglike an icebox. Use blue or lavender undertones in rooms withwarmer colored furnishings. If you undecided between beige and gray, than the easiest colorto work with is green. Keeping it in a muted tone will make itvery easy to live with, and will work with most color palates. Painting your rooms with color will bring a finishing designertouch to your home.
