COLOR FOR HOW YOU LIVE

Posted 02/15/2016

Color and design, especially for interiors has such a big impact on how we relate to our homes. This use of color supports the feel and attitude we want to create for our living spaces. Current color trends are driving the use of soft, muted color as a way to provide visual relief from a busy day. It is not surprising we seek spaces that help us relax, promote wellness and re-energize us from work, family and activities. Today life is less about what you own, but more about how you live. Our homes can provide the groundwork for supporting and enhancing our lives and color can be the key to enhancing our experience.

An emphasis on classic style continues to influence today’s modern interiors. Many emerging styles and design pieces have roots in the past, making it easy to transition favorite furniture and treasured items into updated interiors. Soft, complex colors are the perfect background for showcasing art and design pieces that define our decorating style. This palette of 2016 Spring Colors offers usable color that pairs with and enhances any style.
