In the winter months, natural light is hard to come by. So, to keep us going until the clocks go forward, use colour to brighten your home instead.
In many ways, colour is an extremely valuable tool. It can have a dramatic impact on mood, create the illusion of space and produce a warm environment.
Colourful windows & doors
You’ll find a wide range of exciting colour options for your windows and doors at James Oliver. Add colour to your home by choosing statement finishes in eye-catching colours to add warmth to your home. Once installed, finish them off in style with decorative curtains or blinds.
It’s easy for homeowners to gravitate towards a classic white finish, but experimenting with warmer colours, such as dark red and Rosewood, are perfect for the winter months.
Colourful paint
The most obvious way to add colour to your home is by using paint, whether it’s on the walls or updating a TV cabinet or bookcase with a lick of paint. When selecting paint colours, follow the rules of the colour wheel and avoid clashing colours that sit opposite each other to develop your colour theme.
You can find colours that harmonise together by choosing colours that are adjacent on the wheel. Take note of the perks of each set of adjacent colours. If you’re hoping to generate a calming presence in your home, choose the adjacent colours of blue, green and cyan.
Colourful accessories
Another way to enhance your home with colour is to accessorise your home with colourful décor and furnishings.
Update your home with brightly coloured cushions, rugs, throws and artwork. This way you can keep neutral walls and alternate your colour scheme on a regular basis.
