Whole house colour schemes

It’s a strange fact of life that human beings have a natural inertia to change. When it comes to colour schemes in our homes we often stick with what we know. For some a subtle move away from magnolia is often enough to scratch an itch for change. The problem with this safe route to choosing colour is slowly but surely the whole house becomes a sea of cream based colours. The whole look and feel of your home becomes bland and boring.
Alternatively some may get a sudden urge to totally transform a room encouraged by a TV show of images we see on online. We take a trip to buy a radical new paint colour on a random bank holiday and pow overnight change happens. We may have conquered our inertia to change for just one room and the room itself may look great, but what next. The rest of the house looks even more washed out. How on earth do you marry this new room to the rest of the house? Lets face it not many of us want bold and strident colours right the way through our home.
The upshot is we end up with a more disjointed home, less harmony and much less flow to our living space. We may have an conquered our inertia to change a little but effectively with a knee jerk change we’ve made it harder to create flow through our home.
The answer to this problem is to plan ahead, create whole house colour scheme first.
The benefits of a whole house colour scheme
There a number of benefits of creating a whole house colour scheme –
- Avoiding those horrific and costly decorating ‘mistakes’, the ones were you wish sincerely you’d never bothered.
