BOLDLY
Starting at street level you can
make a statement of color. Choose
brightly colored doors on more
traditional homes, or go all out
and interrupt the expected with
varying colors of bright bold color
on a modern home.
Bright colors
work well against
more subdued
hues on a
traditional home.
A pop of neon
lime green
adds spirited
punctuation
to the front
of this house.
The vibrant
shade is
exactly what's
needed in this
super-modern
dwelling with its graphite-
colored cladding and tubular
metal awning, but a neon
color could work equally
well in other settings –
electric blue amid white
render for example.
Bold oranges and reds pair well turquoise and warm, rich
browns. Use accent colors to bring in the more dramatic colors
and pull back for a more muted and low key approach when
using natural woods and fibers. These bright combinations
play well in both dining rooms as well as living rooms.
