Color Trends - Winter 2017

SMALL COLOR ADDITIONS INSPIRE BIG STYLE

Posted 01/17/2017

The winter months bring us back indoors to plan our next painting and remodeling adventure. As life changes, so our homes change. Family, hobbies and different lifestyle needs make us reimagine under-utilized rooms in our home. Kid’s rooms turn into offices or formal dining rooms become a cozy reading space. Adding a touch of color can go a long way in making new spaces comfortable. With the current popularity of grays and neutrals, adding colorful accents or inspiration pieces can elevate a room’s style. These inspiration pieces can be found in furniture or spunky artwork, pillows that change with the season or fabrics that add warmth and texture. Small style-packed items are easy to add or move from room to room, making them the smart choice for big impact.

We hope you find inspiration in our 2017 Winter Color Report. Stop by your neighborhood Diamond Vogel for samples of these great colors.
