Is it time to re style your Perth home? There are so many ways to incorporate some cool tones into your home’s interior. Cool tones work very well with houses that perhaps don’t get as much light, they can bring light and brightness to a room where it may lack otherwise. Cool tones tend to be fun and incredibly chic, but can be used in your entire home to give it a little more luster. There is certainly no reason to be afraid of experimenting with colours, cool tones don’t have to be difficult to wrap your head around.
Predominantly shades such as blues, whites, silvers, some pastel shades, often pastel greens and blues, splashing any of these tones on your wall will immediately throw some light into the space. Cool tones tend to work well with more neutral shades of furniture but they can work with any tones you have, if you get creative. If you have bright colours, you may want to tone down on those and use any bright colours as accent colours to really enhance the cool tones. It doesn’t have to be daunting, they will complement so many aspects of your home. Let’s take a look at the best ways to incorporate these colours into your living space:
WALLS
Your walls are the focal point of your room most likely, they bring a certain tone to a room immediately and greens, blues, whites, pastels and silver can really bring a cool, calming tone to the room, you can accent two opposite walls or all four, you can easily mix and match your colours for each wall as long as you’re choosing similar colours that blend. For example, a pale blue mixes with a silver, white mixes with any colour and you will find that pastel greens will work nicely with other pastel shades such as blue greys or most cool greys.
DOORS
If you choose to add a cool tone to one of your interior doors, then it’s good to look at the colour of your walls. Do you want your door to seamlessly blend with the walls and decor, or do you want it to stand out a little? Any type of contrast can look harsh and you will find that keeping your cool tones effortless and soft will make them look the most beautiful. You can use cool tones on exterior doors, cool tones look modern and stylish and can give the outside of your home a lift.
FURNITURE
Cool tones work lovely on furniture, they can really add an element of shabby chic to your furniture but ensure you get the right furniture paint. Cool tones work lovely in kitchens especially; so sprucing up the kitchen cupboards may be quite an exciting task. Old cupboards and little worn coffee tables that you’d like to blend in better will look stylised, and ready and waiting to start housing your ornaments.
It’s time to start looking to the future and giving your home the deserved makeover it needs for a brand new decade!
