Neutral colours are universal, they work with anything. It’s time to take a step back from the assumption that bolder is better!
Gone are the days that choosing neutral tones for your house is thought of as a bland and boring choice. There are many reasons why neutral colours are seen in so many homes today.
Aside from making a room to seem larger, more airy, clean and welcoming, a neutral scheme can literally work with any style!
Whether you are modern, traditional, eclectic, or love rustic country charm— a neutral backdrop is ideal for you.
This neutral backdrop then allows you to add pops of colour and interest in the rest of your house giving you freedom to experiment with your own personal style and design choices.
Don’t think a neutral scheme won’t make your Interior unique. A neutral scheme will always leave you with endless possibilities to add contrast to a space in other ways.
You never run the risk of getting tired of a classic neutral scheme.
Painting a room in a bold colour can be a great idea at first if you love it. But what happens when you eventually get sick of looking at it… Which is bound to happen! People are constantly changing their minds as things go in and out of taste.
This is particularly important when you select colours for your kitchen cupboards or your bathroom benchtop. It can become expensive when you get tired of and want to replace your once chosen look.

The beauty of a natural pallet is if you decide to try something new and want a change all you have to do is add a few inexpensive pillows in a bold colour or a throw.
Saves a lot of time and money if your not having to repaint a whole room!
A neutral pallet is also great for selling houses as it allows prospective home buyers to envision their own furnishings in the space.
A neutral interior gives the opportunity to experiment with different textiles adding to the appeal of the space.
Layers in different textiles and shades of the same colour can really add depth and warmth to the space. Textures such as rough wooden elements, metals, shiny tiles, linens, and brushed velvets are so much easier to blend in nicely with a neutral tone then a say a bold wall in orange.
I suggest looking more towards organic materials that are naturally neutral in tone to add another layer of neutral colour palette to your space.
