Hot Design Trend: Color Blocking

11May12

Color Blocking is a hot design trend for 2 reasons; it’s easy to do and it can be done inexpensively. The first step is to pick colors that work well together. The best way to accomplish this is to go to your trusty color wheel. Don’t have one handy? A fabulous on-line color wheel is TigerColor.com a site that shows color pairings and color schemes on the color wheel. After colors are chosen, have fun! Paint furniture, pick pillows, and add accessories in your chosen hues while making sure to keep some neutrals in some form to balance out the strong contrasts. This is also a great option for renters as the walls can remain white and you still get the explosion of color. pb
