CHOOSING THE PERFECT COLOUR FOR YOUR HOME INTERIOR THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Trending colours for 2020

With Christmas just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to find inspiration and prepare your home for the festive season and the New Year. It’s important to pick a colour scheme that will not only look good at Christmas, but also when the decorations come down, too.

Committing to a paint colour for the interior or exterior of your home this holiday season can be challenging. Especially when you factor in the nuance of color—how shades can be so different depending on light, texture, and the colors around them. Luckily, you don’t have to navigate all the possible interior and exterior paint colour combinations alone.

Phillip George, our Paint and Sundries Department Customer Sales Representative is the guy to talk to. Whether you’re looking to achieve the perfect patina, or to play up a coastal vibe, or are aiming for a harmonious, nature-inspired palette, Phillip can guide the way to the best interior and exterior house paint colours. 

Painting your home breathes new life into your space; you see it in a whole new way. Nothing improves the appearance of the home better than a fresh paint job.

Phillip makes mention of an array of colours to match your every mood. “We’ve grouped our colours into four mood–inspired collections that are guaranteed to harmonize well – Calm, Luxurious, Fresh and warm.” The sales rep reiterated.

Calm Colours create a calm, cool and sophisticated atmosphere he says. These colours create space in a room, give a room that serene, quiet and peaceful feeling of nostalgia, and work well in bedrooms, bathrooms and living rooms.

In our discussions about moods and colours, Phillip thinks that the deep tones of Luxurious colours are able to create relaxing and embracing areas with dramatic atmospheres. Reds, Deep Blues, Oranges, and Greens add that touch of class and luxury to any space.

Fresh colours, he continues, “are used to adjust the temperatures in a room and work well in those rooms where there are lots of natural sunlight, while Warm colours bring a level of sophistication and subtlety that create a perfect place to retreat to and relax.”  

Fresh and Warm colours are effective in kitchens/bathrooms and living rooms respectively. These colours fall in the realm of different shades of reds, blues, greens and yellows.
