Which accent colour inspires you?
Interior design is all about balance – nothing has a value on its own until it is thoughtfully and carefully placed with other items.
Accent colours play a key part in achieving harmony, adding a variety of hues to ‘draw the eye’, add visual interest and bring everything together. The introduction of an accent colour can define your space, especially in open-plan homes.
Many people are afraid of colour and nervous about getting the scheme wrong. So if you’re the cautious type, use accents in accessories that won’t break the bank, rather than more costly items to change like floors and walls.
You can also use seasonal flowers to give colour – the ultimate temporary accent, but also highly effective. If you have more extravagant tastes then don’t just limit the accent colour to small accessories, use them in upholstery, painted furniture, wallpaper and art.
Here are five different accents (and tips!) to add interest to your interiors and reflect your style.
