For the Love of Color

Color can shock us, sooth us, or energize us.  Why not instantly create a positive mood with the colors in your home?  Bright, bold colors create nostalgia for younger days when crayons were vehicles for endless creativity in art class.  These fun, expressive colors will revitalize your spirit.

A jewel-tone masterpiece, this dining room utilizes bold colors in a rich way.  There is a depth of color with a bit more of a traditional expression when compared to pure primary colors.

This citrus and aqua room radiates sunshine.  The color selection paired with a printed carpet creates a cohesive space perfect for casual gatherings.  A whimsical helicopter art piece in combination with the breezy color scheme keeps this space young and hip.

A Betsy Burnham design, this space plays with pattern.  Based on a deep tangerine and cream color palette, the ikat sofa brings instant personality.  A bold banding on the drapery and cornice create visual width within the space perfectly complementing the sofa below.

Geometric circles in a robin's egg blue create the illusion of width and height in a small space.  With walls like this inspiration, you will not have to worry about artwork.  Mixed playfully with a bold floral print, this room definitely does not take itself seriously.
