Fresh, New, Design Ideas for Your Custom Home
There’s no season like springtime to design the interior of your new custom home—and one of the simplest ways to breathe life into it is with a fresh color palette.
“Spring embodies the saying ‘Out with the old, in with the new,’ and provides the opportunity for consumers to apply this mantra in a favorite room in their home,” says Katie Reynolds, an Atlanta-based design expert for Ace Hardware. “This is the perfect time of year to use unexpected pops of color and experiment with fresh, new design ideas.”
Reynolds, along with fellow Ace design experts Nathan Fischer and Julia Richard, list these spring shades to try:
• Pink is having a moment! Pair blush tones with crisp whites—the combination will make a big impact in any room. Mix in as an accent by painting a dresser or chest in a soft pink shade.
• Turquoise never seems to go out of style. Use it sparingly to highlight other subtler colors in any room.
• Bright shades of coral will bring your home to life. Paint coral on an eye-catching accent wall or introduce it through tabletop accessories. Pair with neutral clay-brown tones to even out its intensity.
To take these on-trend shades to the next level, incorporate these five elements, says Reynolds, Fischer and Richard:
• Vintage Accessories (Birdcages, Lanterns)
• Wall Prints
• Mirrored Accents (Lamps, Side Tables)
• Zebrawood (Cabinet, Chest)
• French Doors
Spring is the perfect time to draw inspiration from the tips above to design your custom home interior. You may find these colors have staying power!
