A Pop of Color

Geraldine James' practical solutions offer those who are not confident enough to embark on expensive renovations, with ways to redecorate that can be easily reversed. Encouraging us to experiment, she looks at different ways you can bring color into the home starting with adding single pops of color in a neutral space, such as red pillows, plates, bowls, and rugs in a living space; then she looks at color walls, painting a single wall with a bright color, which can really lift a room without much investment (and you can always repaint if you change your mind). Or bring living color into a room using flowers and houseplants, terrariums, and succulents. Or why not go for a multi-colored look with checks, stripes, or floral patterns whether that is by papering a wall or painting a floor—the effects can be bold and uplifting. Textiles too can bring a softer textural layer of color to a room while wall art can bring a focal point.

Whatever your choice of color palette, Geraldine will offer the perfect solution so get experimenting now.
