Using Color in Home Design & Décor

Color is an important part of any home. Whether you prefer light, neutral tones or vibrant shades that pop, color schemes are an integral part of the overall design. Whether the main focus or complementary, colors can provide contrast and make statements to help achieve your remodeling goal (modern chic, timeless elegance, or anything else).

Are you looking for ideas for your home? If you’re planning to remodel in the near future, these pictures can give you design inspiration and help you think of ways to use color in your home!

Furniture—chairs, pillows, lamps, etc.—is a great way to provide pops of color and contribute to the overall color scheme.

“ Hi, Bruce,
I look forward to your articles in Chevy Chase Village Life -- I love bungalows so I immediately read the article in the latest issue that arrived yesterday (as your team was here planning for the photo shoot). I also liked the Sponsor Spotlight this month -- featuring your company. Is it possible to get a reprint or link to your article on porches that appeared recently? I would love to add one to our NC beach home, but so far no one has been able to figure out how to get access from the inside to the outside! I know my sister would love to see the article too. Thanks for ALL of your amazing work. I hope you will feel free (and confident) to use us as references. The only hard part will be communicating what an outstanding job -- beyond our high expectations -- your team did for us. We are demanding, but your team is more demanding in the excellence that they deliver. ”
