Although, it can be a little challenging to decorate with red color palette because it can easily feel overly aggressive or loud. So we’re here to help offer some guidance.

Red is obviously a vibrant color, so it adds impact wherever it’s used. Whether it’s a dining room painted with bright red walls or a living area with pops of cherry red, the color injects instant personality into spaces. Red also works with lots of other colors—the trick is finding the right pairing or combination so that you won’t get tired or overwhelmed by all of it. All to say, balance is the name of the game when decorating with red.

Here, we’ve rounded up some of the best red color schemes for your home along with tips from our designers. Read on for our ideas on how to bring the color into your rooms.

Just starting to think about paint and can’t decide on a color palette? Check out our guide for how to choose a color palette.

The Color Scheme: Red, White & Blue

One of the most classic color combinations is a red, white, and blue palette. Which means it’s timeless and foolproof! It’s a palette that works in any space, and you can use pretty much any shade of red, white, or blue.

How To Get The Look:

With this color combination, start with white as your base, going with white upholstery and keeping your walls bare. This will give you a crisp foundation to layer on your blues and your reds. Add in simple light blue accents, like a solid baby-blue pillow or an ocean-blue striped ottoman, which will look more like a neutral, to complement your white furnishings. Balance it all out with bright red accents, such as pillows and nautical art. Alongside the blue and white, they add a bright burst of color without overpowering the space.

Why We Love It:

This is a great way to ease into red decor. If you love the coastal or Americana traditional styles, this is also an easy palette that naturally lends itself to those looks.

The Color Scheme: Pops Of Earthy Red

Pops of burnished red against a neutral palette are great if you want to dabble with the color without committing to a full red look.

Shop This Look

How To Get The Look:

You want to kick things off with a base earthy tones, so pull in furnishings and accents in natural wood tones, woven textures, and light neutrals. Be sure to play with textural accents like curtains, art, and pillows, which are easy to pair with other colors and less expensive to swap out. Anchor it all with a rug that has hints of burnished reds and browns. This will make work beautifully when you layer in earthy orange-reds, be it with pillows, a throw, or art.

Why We Love It:

This color combo has a warm, homey, and inviting vibe. It’s the perfect blend of boho and sophisticated and you can easily dress it up or down with more orange red tones (or fewer) depending on the seasons.

The Color Scheme: Terracotta + Green

For an even more earthy approach to red, try terracotta red mixed with woodsy green and natural tones. It’s a color combination that offers just the right amount of rustic while still looking sophisticated.

How To Get The Look:

Bold is the name of this color game, so you want to incorporate this color combo in a big way. Terracotta red is a saturated hue that works beautifully with green, especially a muted, earthy green. Start by painting a wall or look for a rug that’s accented with terracotta red. From there you can layer in a green sofa, pillows, and balance it all out with natural wood pieces. The result will be a space that feels rustic with an organic, southwestern look.

Why We Love It:

Warm and welcoming, this color combination is a cozy take on red living room designs and can work with a wide range of interior design styles. It’s the perfect foolproof palette for a transitional or modern rustic look.

The Color Scheme: Red and Black

Cherry red and black is a surefire color combination for an edgy and modern look. It’s a great pairing if you tend to gravitate towards industrial, ultra-modern, and mid-century style designs.

Shop This Look

How To Get The Look:

With this color combination, you can dial it up or down. Consider whether you want to go with just pops of red and black or take a full-out approach with the colors, like this teenage boys room. Either way, start with black (with white) as your backdrop, then work in your reds. You want white to be the neutral that balances out the bold-on-bold look of red and black. Try a black-and-white wallpaper along with furnishings and accessories accented with red. You’ll get an instant high-contrast look that’s cohesive and contemporary.

Why We Love It:

This is a great color pairing to use with wood tones for a clean, contrasted look. We love that it’s a palette that also works well with bold patterns. In fact, it’s best to lean into red and black patterned designs with this palette, which will keep your space from feeling too dark.

The Color Scheme: Wine Red

Wine red is a color that always makes a statement, and it looks best when used in a bold way. Play up wine red with warm neutrals, such as ivory, eggshell white, and beige, which will give your rooms a sophisticated and elegant look and feel.

Shop This Look

How To Get The Look:

For this color palette, go with a painted wine red wall or statement art and upholstery in the shade. The key is to use this red as the base (versus neutrals), then layer in soft touches of white and beige tones. Think whitewashed dining chairs, beige slipcovers, a white wooden cabinet, or a white marble table. It will create an elevated red-and-white look that’s rich and saturated without feeling stuffy.

Why We Love It:

We love how wine red adds character and a traditional look to spaces, but it doesn’t feel old or dated. It’s a great color choice if you love saturated reds. For a more transitional look, you can also try pairing wine red with modern pieces in a range of white tones.

The Color Scheme: Fuschia and Yellow

If you love color combinations that go with contemporary designs, consider glamorous red tones like coral, fuschia, and cherry red paired with a bright yellow. Because yellow and red are opposite each other on the color wheel, they work perfectly for a colorful high-contrast look.

How To Get The Look:

Set the foundation with a glamorous red tone. Any bold design in red, like the fuschia rug in this dining space, will help you figure out the best way to work in your yellow as well as other accent colors. For instance, the rug here makes for a vibrant backdrop that balances out the equally bright yellow dining chairs. Be sure to round out the colors with one big white furniture piece. It will help ground and tie everything together in your space.

Why We Love It:

This color combo is both glamorous and very modern, and it lends itself perfectly to tropical and eclectic style rooms. At the same time, we love how it energizes a space but still looks curated and sophisticated. And if you love jewel tones, this is the foolproof palette for you!

The Color Scheme: Red-Brown Shades

Red-brown tones with dark wood tones make for a color combination that’s warm and inviting. It’s because red-browns have a richness and earthiness to them that gives them cozy appeal. It’s what makes them the ideal palette for both red bedroom designs as well as pink bedrooms.

Shop This Look

How To Get The Look:

When working with red-browns, it’s good to note that the shades span a broad spectrum. And they’re all muted but stately, so they go well with traditional style furnishings and spaces. One of the most elegant red-brown tones is coral, which is close to a deep, cozy pink. It can easily complement dark wood pieces, like the bed and matching nightstands here, while adding warmth. With any red-brown, however, be sure to mix it with pops of light tones, such as a tan or white, to make it feel less muddy and more sophisticated.

Why We Love It:

We love the versatility of red-browns and how seamlessly they work with dark wood pieces. It’s a grounding red that’s perfect for timeless, elegant, and classic-style rooms.

Decorating a Green Room? Try These 5 Fool-Proof Color Schemes

/0 Comments/in , , , /by

We’re seeing more and more homes incorporate green into their color schemes, and for good reason. Green is a beautiful color to incorporate into your home’s decor, with so many nuanced shades to choose from. It’s easy to incorporate in big ways or small—from green walls or sofas to small accents and decor. And the shade of green you choose can really support the style of your space, or even set the tone.

Green is obviously a very nature-inspired color, but it comes to life in a whole spectrum of shades, from cool mint greens and seafoam greens to earthy olive green and sage green, and even more saturated tones like forest green or a jewel-toned emerald. And green pairs beautifully with other colors, from neutrals to deeply saturated hues.

How to Incorporate Green Into Your Space

When it comes to any room color scheme, there are different levels of intensity that you can try—from small accents in your decor to large furniture pieces, and even an all-over monochrome look! What you choose all depends on the level of saturation and intensity you want to incorporate into your space. Here are a few levels of how you can incorporate green into your space, in big ways and small.

Explore our full beginner’s guide to color palettes for more tips!

green room color schemes

Small: Green in Accents

If you want to incorporate green in small ways, sprinkle it in through your accents. This could be anything from art and small decor like vases to throw pillows and even an accent chair. And, of course, through plants! Plants are a great way to bring in green accents in a neutral or colorful space.

To do this well, think about “layering” your green evenly throughout the space so that it doesn’t feel like green is all in one space. So, instead of having just one pop of green through an accent chair, bring in green elsewhere in the room as well—through a few pillows on each side of the sofa, and perhaps by placing a plant in an empty corner distribute some green throughout the space!

Medium: Green in Base Furniture

To bring green into your space in a slightly more significant way, go green with your base furniture! In a living room, that means opting for a green sofa, in a bedroom it might be a green upholstered headboard. Going with a color in your base furniture is a great way to dictate the color scheme of that room. But it’s also a big commitment to that color, so make sure you really love it since it will be a significant piece that impacts your design style for a long time! But if you do decide to go with a color in your base furniture, green is a great option. It’s a calming color that you can dress up with more green or play it down with more neutral colors and natural textures.

green room color schemes

Large: Green Everywhere

Want to do green in a big way? Go monochrome. Going big with green is a great way to make a statement in a room. But to give the look depth and keep things more interesting, layer different shades of green through the space. This living room above is a perfect example. The sofa is a different shade of green than the wall, but it’s in the same color family (think about grouping shades of warm greens or cool greens rather than mixing tones).

To get this look, paint green walls, then pick furniture pieces (like a sofa and accent chairs) that are a complementary shade of green. Then, layer in even more green with your wall art, pillows, and decor. However, to keep the space from being overwhelming, go more neutral with your rug, drapery, and other textiles.

Best Color Schemes for Green

Once you know how big or small you want to go with green, you can start deciding which other colors to incorporate in your space. When creating a green color scheme, you’ll want to start by identifying the undertones of the colors you’re interested in to make sure the tones complement each other. Picking up paint color swatches is a great way to figure out the right tones of each color you want to include! You can then use those colors to help flesh out your overall color palette. And if you need some help knowing which colors to combine with green, we’ve rounded up five of our favorite green color scheme ideas to inspire you!

green room color schemes

The Color Scheme: Green + Neutrals

Just about any shade of green goes beautifully with neutrals, whether that’s a crisp white or a cream or grey. Within this color scheme, it also goes perfectly with natural materials like jute! This color combo is primarily seen in living rooms and green bedroom designs, since those rooms allow for more color usage simply because of the furniture items in those rooms. (It’s more difficult to pull off this color scheme in a dining room since not many dining tables are green!) This is also one of the most versatile green color combinations.

Shop This Look

How to Get the Look

Layer pillows, vases, art, and small textiles with larger neutrals. In the image above, we paired green pillows with a neutral sofa, and the green accent chair pairs well with the textured jute rug. The chairs are the largest use of green in this space, but the tone of green makes it almost feel like an extension of the neutral color palette. (Whereas a deep, saturated forest green would feel like more of a statement.) Pops of green are also incorporated in various accents, like wall art, small decor, textiles, and even in the use of plants.

Balance the green with neutral base furniture and a neutral rug. It’s all about striking a balance. In the image above, we’re balancing the green in the two accent chairs so it feels like it’s being framed in the room, and then the neutrals come in to complement the green and hold everything together in the sofa, rug, and coffee table.

Why We Love It

Pairing green with neutrals is a perfect way to convey a color palette without the main color (in this case, green) feeling dominant or too loud. Green is a transcendent neutral, and it pairs really well with warm neutral textures such as jute, cane, or even linen.

green room color schemes

The Color Scheme: Green Monochrome

As we mentioned earlier, a monochrome green space is a way to design a green color scheme in a very big and bold way. We particularly like doing monochrome green in warmer shades, like olive, moss, and a creamy lime green. This color scheme works best in living rooms and bedrooms. It’s a louder and more dominant approach, and it can be more easily brought to life in a room with more textiles.

Shop This Look

How to Get the Look

You can incorporate green elements anywhere and everywhere in a monochrome green room—from the walls and sofa to accent furniture and decor! Look for different shades of green within the same overall tone, keeping it all in warm tones or cool tones. (If you mix warm and cool tones, the room might feel a bit disjointed.) This look works best when furniture types and finishes are also considered; keeping furniture cohesive will help with conveying the monochrome.

The balance comes from making sure your colors are all relatively within the same tone, then layering them accordingly within your furniture. You can also add balance by keeping textiles like rugs and drapery more neutral, or by incorporating natural materials. In this room materials such as stone, jute, and woods become the accent “colors.”

Why We Love It

Monochrome green is a lovely way to make a statement that feels calming but bold.

green room color schemes

The Color Scheme: Green + Terracotta

A green and terracotta color scheme is the perfect earth tones palette. A warm balance is created between earthy green tones and warm rusts, for a look that’s grounded and inviting. Materials are big in this style; woods, jutes, metals, and stone all help bring to life this earthy look.

Shop This Look

How to Get the Look

Start by picking which one color you’ll use as the base color. Here, we used terracotta as the base color, then green is used as an accent throughout the space. But, since we opted for a green sofa against the terracotta wall, green still feels like a significant player in this space. You could also take the opposite approach with a green wall and rust-colored sofa. Either way, make sure to incorporate both colors in the accent decor and other textiles, but also add a few neutral tones to balance out the look. However, aside from a few of those neutrals, keep other colors limited; you’ll lose the color scheme if you layer in too many other colors.

Why We Love It

This color scheme is warm and welcoming and goes with so many different interior design styles. We love that this combination is such a rich, saturated take on earth tones, which gives any room a lot of warmth.

green room color schemes

The Color Scheme: Green + Purple

Do you love bold colored rooms? Then you might want to try a green and purple color scheme. When you opt for jewel-toned shades of both green and purple, you get a look that’s bold and elegant, with a flair of the dramatic.

Shop This Look

How to Get the Look

Use a darker, saturated green as your base color, then use a plum or eggplant purple as a true accent in the space—incorporated through a large piece of furniture or some statement wall art. Using purple as an accent rather than perfectly balancing the two colors in a space will help you avoid the look of a certain purple and green dinosaur, and create more visual balance in the space. Essentially, you could take the basic approach of a monochrome green look, then add in a few pops of purple in either rugs or base furniture. This look can lean pretty glam—so you can play that up by incorporating metallics, as well as black and white, in the art and smaller decor.

Why We Love It

It’s a dramatic and regal color scheme, which we especially love in glam or classic spaces. These colors play really well off of classic materials like velvets, which help drive home the sense of opulence that this color palette naturally carries.

green room color schemes

The Color Scheme: Green + Pink

Green and pink creates a fun, youthful, bright, and happy scheme that still manages to feel elevated. You can bring this palette to life in most rooms, but we especially like it in living rooms, offices, and bedrooms.

Shop This Look

How to Get the Look

Get colorful with your furniture to really establish the color palette in your space! Sofas, beds, accent furniture, and even rugs are a great way to incorporate these colors. Think of these pieces as grounding objects to help create a bold and definitive color scheme. You can also layer in both pink and green in pillows and wall art. However, you’ll want to stick with neutrals in your smaller decor so that the space doesn’t feel overwhelming or disjointed.

Why We Love It

Pink and green is a refreshing and happy combination that brings in both warm and cool tones. It can be tough to achieve, but it’s best done with your rugs and base furniture play together to establish the color scheme.

Pretty in Pink: 10 Ways to Style a Designer-Approved Pink Bedroom

/0 Comments/in , /by

Here’s your friendly reminder that pink is not just for a Princess Barbie Dreamhouse. Contrary to long-held popular beliefs, pink is actually a versatile, soothing, and sophisticated color that can be used across many different interior design styles.

Various shades of pink have made their way into public consciousness in a big way in the past couple of years. Millennial Pink came onto the scene in 2016, when Pantone named Rose Quartz (aka Millennial Pink) as the Pantone Color of the Year. And with that, the color pink was officially reclaimed! It was no longer reserved for little girls and princess parties. Adults of all genders and identities were embracing shades of pink in their decor, clothing, and more.

As you might guess, we love incorporating pink into room designs. We particularly love the idea of pink in the realm of bedroom design ideas—and not just girls bedroom designs, but in adult bedrooms as well! When it comes to pink bedroom ideas, there are so many different shades of pinks, so you can really choose one that goes with your aesthetic and design style, along with your other decor. You can choose a more bright and bold shade for something glam or trendy, or a soft light pink for something more subtle. Either way, you’ll definitely be adding some style and class to your bedroom.

And decorating a pink bedroom doesn’t have to be intimidating. If you’re an adult who wants to incorporate some pink into your bedroom, we’ve got you covered with some pink design ideas. Keep reading for 10 tasteful, adult-friendly pink room ideas.

Warm + Saturated Pink

Want some all-over pink bedroom ideas? This might be the look for you. We opted for peachy pink walls in this room—plus a rug in a similar tone—which creates a warm, cozy glow. We balanced it out with the white bed and bedding for some great contrast. And the use of natural materials helps further balance out the strong look of a pink wall and gives this space an organic feel.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Eclectic, coastal, and boho styles. The warm, enveloping glow created by the pink walls makes it great for styles with natural and organic elements.

Pro Tip:

Keep decor simple and focus on using pink in big items like wall colors, the rug, and wall decor.

Shop This Look

Pink + Green

Pink and green are two colors that go beautifully together and make quite a pretty color combo. Going for a more saturated green and softer shades of pink creates a soft look that’s very relaxing for a bedroom. However, punctuating the softer pinks with a few more saturated tones, like a hot pink, would bring more boldness to the space, along with an extra kick of color! We love balancing this color palette with neutrals and natural materials.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Someone with eclectic, boho, or classic style who appreciates a more bold use of color. This would be great for a teen bedroom design.

Pro Tip:

Make sure pink is the dominant color, but balance it out with complimentary soft colors. Using similar shades of pink throughout will create a cohesive and soft look.

Shop This Look

Blocks Of Pink

Instead of pops of pink, consider using big color blocks of pink in your bedroom, like we did here with this accent wall and rug. This gives the pink effect you’re looking for, but in a way that feels minimal and serene. In this room, the peachy pink feels like it’s part of the room’s structure since it’s covering big blocks of space. You can also add subtle pops of pink in wall art and through throw pillows. Just make sure you don’t use pink in the main pieces of the room, like a bed or nightstand.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Modern bedrooms or those with minimalist style. This look is all about the structure and shape of the decor, so it works well with styles where the furniture has clean and simple lines.

Pro Tip:

Keep the pink monochromatic to maintain a modern look—like the peachy pink used throughout this space.

Shop This Look

Big Bold Pink

If you want a bedroom with a big, bold pink element, consider an upholstered pink bed. The one pictured above grounds the space and adds a major wow-factor to this bedroom. The simple colors throughout the space—mostly just black, white, and brass—allows pink to be the star of the show. However, the printed black and white wallpaper definitely ups the glam factor of this space and goes perfectly with the vibe of this bed. But this big, bold pink look doesn’t have to be accomplished just with a pink bed. You could also opt for a pink dresser or wallpaper instead. The key is just choosing one bold piece to drive the color palette and style for the whole room.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Those who gravitate toward glam and mid-century modern styles and aren’t afraid to make a bold design move.

Pro Tip:

Complementing the blush pink bed with other pops of pink creates a subtle but impactful look. In this bedroom, we added additional pink elements in the ombre pink fur pillow and the pink vase on the nightstand.

Shop This Look

High-Contrast Pink

Just because you’re incorporating pink into your bedroom doesn’t mean it has to be the main color in the space. As you can see in the bedroom design above, we grounded the space with dark navy walls and wood furniture, then used white accents to stand out against the dark furniture and walls. Meanwhile, pink is more of an accent color. We opted for a highly saturated pink that’s just shy of hot pink, seen in the rug and artwork, to pop against the high-contrast dark and light color scheme.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Transitional and modern bedrooms. The clean lines add a sharp look—and the addition of pink makes the space really pop!

Pro Tip:

Use pops of pink on all levels of the room—from the rug on the floor, to the pink pillow and throw on the bed, and the pink art on the wall above the bed. Doing this helps the eye move around the space and keeps the look dynamic.

Shop This Look

Shades Of Pink

In this room, pink is used all over—most notably in the pink walls—but different hues are used throughout. We used peach, hot pink, and a purple-pink, creating a really fun mix of shades. All three of these shades work well together because we balanced them out with neutral furniture and brass accents. This gives the pink bedroom a sense of playful cohesiveness. The clean lines of the furniture and the simple decor keep the color the main decorative element and focus in this room.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Mid-century and transitional styles, where you want to have a little extra fun in the execution of the design.

Pro Tip:

Use three different shades of pink throughout the space, but balance it out with other grounding and complimentary colors. (Like we did with the wall art and front throw pillow.)

Shop This Look

Shabby Chic Pink

Shabby chic style and soft pastel pinks are a match made in heaven. The use of pink in textiles gives a space a soft and feminine feel. We used soft pink in most of the textiles, and also included some floral prints that feature pink. Shabby chic is all about floral, so we also used real flowers as decor. Keep the shades of pink muted and light, and pair them with weathered, whitewashed woods for a soft rustic look.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Those who love a good floral pattern and ruffle. Shabby chic is a look in and of itself, but even elements of this style are perfect for rustic and countryside looks.

Pro Tip:

Layering is key for a shabby chic look. In this pink bedroom, we layered pink on the bed, added flowers on the nightstand, and made sure there was a lot of texture present throughout the space.

Shop This Look

Minimalist Pink

If minimalism is your vibe, go for a minimalist space that leans pink. Use pink throughout space in simple ways. In this room, we went for pink in the rug, curtains, chair, wall art, throw pillow, and blanket. It sounds like a lot, but the execution is actually very restrained. While pink is actually the only color used in the decor in this space, aside from the furniture and lighting, the use of solid pinks and simple patterns helps promote a minimal feel.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Someone who loves a minimalist look, where the color itself becomes the decor.

Pro Tip:

Keep pinks within a shade or two of each other for a monochromatic pink look, and balance the pinks with white and neutrals.

Shop This Look

Boho Pink

In pink bedrooms like this, rattan and other natural materials set the tone for a boho space. But shades of pink used all over give this space some vibrant personality. There are pops of bold pink on the bed, and the whole look is grounded by the large pink pattern of the rug. All of this pink is balanced out by the neutral colors and natural materials. Layering different textures and shades of pink—in the pillows, throws, art, and rug—is one of those bedroom essentials when looking to create that boho vibe.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Bohemian and eclectic styles, where you can color outside the lines and have a lot of fun.

Pro Tip:

Play with different textures, patterns, and shades of pink to keep the look lively.

Shop This Look

Soft Glam Pink

To create a soft glam space, use pink throughout the room, from the walls, to a pink bench and pillows, and even soft pops of pink in the wall art. Balance these elements with neutral and classic glam furniture. But make sure you incorporate glam touches in other places too—like the use of brass and mirrored elements, a tufted bed finished with nailheads, and a striking chandelier. These pieces all contribute to a soft glam pink look, which is a very feminine and sophisticated way to use pink. By the way—delicate blush pink walls are a must for this look. It sets the tone for the space and adds a warm glow.

This Look Is Perfect For…

Those with glam or classic looks, who want a bedroom that has an air of formality but is ultimately all about luxe relaxation.

Pro Tip:

Add layers of luxurious textiles—like faux fur, fluffy bedding, and a tufted headboard—and bring pink into all of these elements.
