Try adding a pop of purple around the house
By Medicine Hat News on December 29, 2018.
Metro Editorial Pantone named “Ultra Violet” its colour of the year in 2018, helping to create a resurgence in popularity of all things purple. As a result, homeowners who pride themselves on staying on top of the latest trends have increasingly turned to purple when designing their home interiors. Purple influences can range from the dramatic to the subtle. Here are some ways to embrace purple in your home. Transition bedroom colour – Purple has long been a favorite shade for adolescents who are growing up and moving away from pinks and peaches into more mature room colors. Purple looks well when accented by white, magenta and yellow. Even though it is embraced by young girls, purple also can be used by adults who want to create soothing retreats in their bedrooms. Create an accent wall – A purple room may intimidate people who prefer mild, more neutral design schemes. But a purple accent wall can add a pop of colour, suggest the home experts at Realtor.com. When it comes time to list a home, it’s easier for the next homeowner to embrace a purple accent wall than an entire room decorated in this jeweled tone. Use accent items – It’s easy to add a splash of plum or other variations of purple without making a permanent commitment. Dress up neutral decor with throw pillows, rugs, table linens, or draperies in all shades of purple. As trends change, it’s easy to exchange accent items. 8-7
