A growing trend in homes throughout the UK is to have rooms where the walls are different colours. Usually this style is done by having two walls painted white and then the other two painted another colour, such as red, green, or blue.
It is a style which can be used for any room, such as a livingroom or bedroom, and is effective at creating a feeling of balance within the room. It also allows you to carry the same colour theme into other elements of your interior design, such as with your livingroom furniture. By choosing furniture which matches the colour scheme you can reinforce and enhance the effect you’ve created by using two different colours.
It needs to be pointed out though that using white and another off-white colour like beige or cream doesn’t work, as they blend into each other too much. Instead, for this style to work, you need to choose a bold colour to provide a feeling of balance, such as a bold green, blue, red, yellow or orange.
