Using different tones of the same
color can add an element of surprise
to a room while also adding bal-
ance. Lighter tones can be paired with
brighter, bolder ones to create an
interesting look and add more color
without overwhelming the room or
creating a heavy atmosphere.
Use Different
Tones of the
Same Color
When done well, a room can handle
more color than you think. Using dif-
ferent tones can help you push the
boundaries of your color scheme a
little without going overboard. But, it
is easy to go overboard, so you want
to keep it balanced.
