New Year, new beginnings and possibly a new colour palette for your lounge room. The colour palette of your lounge should promote an inviting, warm space for you to relax and enjoy some well-earned downtime. Obviously, the spectrum of colours is almost endless and certain colours create different atmospheres and moods. In this post we take a look at some of the different colour palettes for you to try this year.
Earthy Tones
Earth tones derived from mother nature can give your lounge room a rustic, natural feel. Imagine your living room with a brown leather lounge Sydney, a nice lavender rug and adorned in wooden accessories such as cabinets and bookshelves. Oh, and don’t forget the greenery. Style some indoor plants to really add some colour and make the room shine.
Modern Chic
Modern chic is all about simplicity with vivid highlights. Imagine a painted white room with minimalist furniture of vivid reds and deep blues, and tones of grey. Adding little pops of colour around the place with small styling touches like vases filled with dried plants and natural textures gives it a modern touch.
Subtle Blending
You can always make use of the colour wheel when selecting a palette for your lounge room. Well, in fact, we strongly recommend it. You can always use complementing colours. Adorn your lounge room in subtle changes in colours with light purples and off whites. You can always add a splash of colour with artwork, lamps and throw rugs. Greys of varying shades work well in this scheme along with off whites and subtle pink.
Remove Clutter
Clutter tends to detract from the amazing colour palette in your lounge room therefore it’s essential to get rid of it. It may be tough for some of you hoarders out there but be vigilant. Anything that is detracting from your beautiful new colour scheme, get rid it now.

Make note of your likes and dislikes of living room colour palette. This will give you more of an idea of what can be done with the different colour schemes. It’s hug help when it comes to deciding that’s for sure.
