There are several ways to revamp your home. Adding a splash of color into the room is one of the cheapest way to change the room's look and by adding life, but who would have thought that painting the ceiling can change the entire room's vibe?
Accent walls are ideal for home owners that would want to put a twist on a room while having a tight budget. Listed below are color choices and painted ceiling ideas that can change the look for the entire room within just a couple of minutes at a minimal cost.
Color the Ceiling
Though most home owners would usually play safe by painting their ceilings white or off white. There are those that are bold enough to opt for brighter hues to add accent into the room.
Nan Kornfeld, an architectural specialist based in San Francisco, told This Old House that, "In Victorian homes, ceilings often varied from room to room, back then, colorful ceilings played off the saturated patterns on oriental carpets and ornate wood furniture. Today, they work equally well in everything from traditional interiors to airy, clean-lined spaces."
Choose the Hues
The color pallet can either make or break the room's design. It is important to choose your hues carefully. Though the point of throwing in an accent wall is to splash a pop of color into the room, make it a point that you won't go overboard.
Dark subtle hues can make the room look more intimate as per the Fresh Home website as it creates an illusion that makes the ceiling look lover, and a wide space cramped.
As for bold colors on the other hand, turquoise, orange, and yellow give the room a burst of energy making the room look more lovely and vibrant. Bold colors are ideal for white walls and neutral furniture.
