Hot Paint Color Trends for 2016

When the weather outside is dreary, it’s time to brighten up your home with a fresh coat of paint. Painting your walls is an easy way to stay up-to-date on the latest trends without spending all your dimes. Find out what’s trending for 2016:

Bold Contrast
Bright tones and contrast aren’t just for the summer months! In a room where you entertain often, choose chromatic brights and glossy surfaces that are playful, yet inviting. While dark colors create an illusion of depth, bright colors attract more light and give off the appearance of more space.

Blended Boundaries
For a more modern approach, blurring the boundaries from the top to the bottom of a wall is subtle yet right on point with this year’s paint trends. For example, coat the bottom half of your wall in orange, the top half in turquoise, and use a small brush to blend in the middle. 

Geometric Patterns
Get creative with your paint selections through eye-catching patterns. Ask yourself: “Where do I want to attract most attention?” If that means you wish to add more width to a room, create a horizontal border around the top and bottom of your walls. For a stylish touch, trace a unique geometric pattern off to the side of a wall.

Home Design Trends for 2016

Looking to redecorate your home for 2016? Spruce things up with some of the best home design trends for the New Year! Below are five interior-inspired ideas every homeowner should try: 

Art Deco. Bold patterns and geometric shapes are making a huge comeback this year. Try an art deco-inspired bathroom by making a statement with your paint design or in the kitchen with gold light fixtures.

Wool Rugs. Create an outdoorsy vibe with the number one texture of the year: wool! Opt for a neutral hue for a soft accent along with bolder, more dramatic statements, like a chocolate brown upholstered chair.

Artisan Accents. Accent pieces from flea markets or your travels make for unique home decor items. Not only do they enrich your home, but they also tell stories of history and of your experiences. So visit your local antique shop or rummage through your collectable items to see how you can redecorate your space.

Pendants. Gold or colorful pendants make for elegant additions to any kitchen or dining room. Be sure to save on electricity by choosing LED lights - and don’t be afraid to mix and match with the rest of your living space. After all, mixing and matching is still a popular style for many homes!

Mixed Metallics. From copper to gold and steel, there are many types of metals you can mix together. Making a room sparkle is a trend that we’ve seen for quite some time, and it continues to be a popular choice for interior designers! One of the main reasons being that it helps to illuminate your home.
