Vault Interiors reveal the secrets of Colour Blocking!

Announcement posted by 360PR 07 Oct 2016

Over the years fashion runways have been sprinkled with the colour blocking and now this striking trend has joined home styling. As the flowers continue bloom, so too should the walls, highlighting features and creating an impact in a room. Justine Stedman, Director and Principal Stylist at Vault Interiors, shares her top tips for effective colour blocking in the home.

Justine says, “When done correctly, colour blocking can elicit some serious wow factor to your home and brighten your mood. Like in fashion, the technique allows colours to be paired for their contrast and capacity to direct the eye. The possibilities are endless!”

“The presentation of your property is so important in preparation for a sale or to ‘spring clean’ your home, especially during the busiest selling time of the year. The best way is to take on a professional stylist to spruce it up in all the right ways!”

Justine’s top tips for colour blocking in 2016 include:
1. KEEP IT MILD: For those who prefer a paired-back, subtle interior! The mild approach is a great way to incorporate colour blocking trends; adding some vibrancy whilst not being over the top! Keep the tones within the same colour family, and choose different hues of the same colour. Pastels such as soft pinks, blues, and yellows work well with a base, neutral palette.
2. GO WILD: Select a bold colour scheme to make a dramatic impact, but it’s important not to choose too any shades competing for your eye’s attention. To create a well-balanced harmonious space, choose shades that work well with a neutral palette. Selecting one or two focal items whose tones are complementary to the other items in the room works best.
3. ADD FLAVOUR WITH ACCESSORIES: An easy way of adding colour blocking into your home is through accent sofas, chairs, pillows, table décor and curtains with contrasting solid colours, turning a dull space into a modern masterpiece!
. Another fantastic option is a
bold piece of wall art.
4. PACK A PUNCH WITH WALLS: To leave a lasting impression, try painting one or two accent walls using desired contrasting shades – great for the more adventurous types! To tie it together, scatter complementary items throughout the room – wallpaper is a great option for this look. Stick to one feature wall to avoid going overboard.
