There has been a shift away from the use of wall papers in favour of customized living spaces. <strong><br \/>\n<\/strong>Truth be told, modernism never disappeared and it\u2019s the predominant form of architecture found in today\u2019s fast-paced technological environment. Moreover, it just looks good and never goes out of style.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Choosing One Color and Open Up Endless Options<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There are countless variations on a base color as informed by hue, tone, saturation and shade. Take the color blue for example \u2013 a constant crowd pleaser \u2013 and think about just how versatile it actually is. A cursory wander through the home improvement aisle at your local department store will result in ocean blues, turquoise, teals, peacock blues and so many more options.<\/p>\n<p>Think interior design as a way to express your personality. In much the same why that a good art installation will provoke conversation, your feature walls should become a talking point of the room and accentuate its best qualities.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Expand the Space and Your Horizons<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s often important to work within the room and use what\u2019s available to you. Make sure your color choices complement the existing color palette of your furnishings, carpets and match the overall design scheme. Ideally, what you\u2019re looking for is a wall that attracts attention, invites conversation and breathes new life into the space.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like to be more adventurous but don\u2019t know quite where to start, check out this great article on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benjaminmoore.com\/en-us\/for-your-home\/creating-beautiful-accent-walls\" target=\"_blank\">ideas for creating the perfect accent wall<\/a>.\u00a0 You\u2019ll find a few helpful hints and sound advice on making the best interior design decisions for your home.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t forget that the perfect height to hang your wall art from is exactly 57 inches from the floor to the center of the artwork as standardized by many art galleries and museums around the country.
