Home Styling 101: Bringing Neutral Tones to Life

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: we can’t get enough of the calm and relaxing feel that a neutral colour scheme delivers.

While we love the way neutral tones can create a relaxing environment, they can also be fun, energetic and full of life! A neutral colour scheme in any home is a blank canvas. All you need to do to bring some energy and life into it is switch it up! Here’s how:

Mix and match. To bring your neutral colour scheme to life, mix tones, take advantage of different materials and play with patterns.

Opposites really do attract! Create depth within your neutral colour scheme by mixing opposite textures. Try offsetting rough with soft, shiny with matte and coarse with smooth textures.

5 Reasons Why Neutral Colour Schemes Are Always a Good Choice

Urban Presentations’ Senior Property Stylist Caroline Roussy’s recent project working with neutrals.

1. Neutrals are not only reliable for use in decorating, they also play a critical role in providing visual relief, backdrops, and an overall calming atmosphere.

2. Neutral colours highlight architectural elements, unlike bold colours that draw the eye away.

3. Neutral colours are classic. This is one of the most appealing aspects of a neutral colour scheme; it never goes out of style!

4. When your home decor is built around neutral colours, trendy, vibrant colours and prints can be seamlessly incorporated. This way, your home can remain on-trend as your personal taste changes and evolves over the years.

5. Neutral colours are appropriate and effective in any style of space. Whether you prefer modern or old-world style, traditional or eclectic, contemporary or farmhouse – neutrals are versatile and reliable.
