Choosing colours for a bedroom or home office is easy for some people and a bit of a nightmare for others. Do you worry about clashing colours? Are you concerned about how dark or light the whole room will look if you add a bespoke fitted wardrobe of the wrong shade?
Although fashions change, the principles of coour choosing don't vary that much. This is why listening to an experienced craftsman will really help. We know what works because we have seen the finished result many many times over.
Playing with different colour combinations is the really rewarding side of decorating. Putting different colours together can create subtle changes or dramatic shifts in the overall look of a room. One useful trick is to get some free paint colour charts from any paint stockist. You will see that colours are separated out into moods and you will find that any two colours from the same mood should go together harmoniously.
Remember that strong colours are like strongly flavoured foods in that it is usually the case that a little goes a long way. Balance strong colours with more muted tones to make the strong colour stand out without overpowering the room.
Why not put together your own mood board of colours, fabric scraps and pages from magazines to show our furniture designers the colours and textures that inspire you. Remember, you will be living with the bespoke furniture we build for you so take the time to think about colour as much as shape and size.
