Make a Bold Statement with Your Interior Paint

In previous posts, we’ve discussed the power of a solid neutral in various rooms of your home, using it as a color to tie everything together and to allow you to relax and recline in your office or bedroom. Today, however, we’re going in a different direction. While a house covered from roof to floor in a hodgepodge of patterns may give some a headache, there’s something to be said about getting creative and making a statement.

When you’re ready to ditch white and go for the bold, the Orlando painting team at New Ceilings is here to help. Here are just a few interesting ideas we’ve collected that you may like to try:

• Colorful waves. More visually appealing than stripes, you can use waves on any wall in your home, in any number of color combinations. Try choosing four or five complementary colors and painting a large wave on the wall behind your bed, or add a more subtle accent to the dining room. It’s a perfect way to highlight all the accent colors throughout the room.

• Typography. This may sound complicated to some, but large, monogrammed letters and numbers are chic, in style, and fairly easy to pull off with some painter’s tape. Decorate one of your child’s walls with the first letter of his or her name, or use a number as a motif in your study. Whatever you decide to do, you’re sure to have a unique setting unlike any other.

• Abstract line work. The best thing about abstract lines is that they can literally be whatever you want them to be. Try a few big crosshatched lines in a metallic paint as an accent in your dining room. Make a couple random bold stripes in the bedroom. The great thing about painter’s tape is that it doesn’t have to be in a straight line–you can tear it and adjust it to make a number of appealing effects.

At New Ceilings, we believe you should have fun with your paint. Don’t be afraid to experiment with design and textures. If you need a hand choosing the right colors for your space, our Orlando painting team offers free color consultations with a Sherwin-Williams representative.
