MONOCHROMATIC
A monochromatic color scheme is derived from one single color, using different shades, tones and tints from that color. In this case we’ve created a gallery wall with black and white photo art in a bedroom with a different variations of the color grey.

COMPLEMENTARY
This colour scheme may seem a bit daring to some, but if you go for it the result will be stunning! Complementary color schemes are combinations of two colors that sit opposite each other on the color wheel. They are high contrast colors, like yellow and purple or blue and orange. Use the colors as accents against a neutral background or use one of the colors as a base color and the other as an accent. In this room we’ve added orange as an accent color to a deep blue base.

NEUTRALS
A fail-proof way of decorating, stick to classic neutrals! Neutral colors, including black, white, grey and beige, can be divided into warm and cold. In this living room we’ve chosen to go with warm neutrals. Creamy whites and shades of brown give a warm yet classic feel to your home.
