9 Eye-Catching Colour Combinations For Your Home

Whether you're planning to freshen up the cabinets in your kitchen or do a full living room transformation, your first plan of action is determining the colour scheme. 

While we love the monochromatic and colour-drenched trends—but using multiple colours in your design adds depth, interest, and a level of fun. Implement these colour pairings into your home as much or as little as you like with paint, furniture, and seasonal decor.

 

1. Blue and Cream

Blues and whites are a classic coastal combination that evokes light, airy feelings. Choosing a deep blue to complement a stark white creates a bolder design, like the one above, while a softer blue is reminiscent of a beach house.

A variety of muted shades complement each other in this living room, but the soft green walls and dusty rose carpet are the standouts. We love how you can easily take this palette from furniture to decor to paint.

Rich espresso, soft teddy bear browns, and creamy whites come together to create an understated but cozy palette. It's easy to dress up these tones with vibrant decor accents that can be switched out seasonally.

A mix of warm-toned greys, mauves, and purples bring a moody vibe to any room. That said, this palette doesn't have to be dark. In this living room, the colours are made more vibrant by bright windows and glass accessories.

A mix of peach, burnt orange, and earthy brown bring warmth to this otherwise neutral living room. These tones make a statement but are subdued enough to stay cool for years to come.

Sophisticated and sleek, stark black and Kelly green are a lounge-like duo. Mixing a variety of textures in these tones keeps a playful aspect to the design.

While not the most expected colour combo, we love how these buttery yellows and soft purples work in harmony in this eclectic living room. Adding pops of bold blue and red keep the space extra lively.
