Say yes to colour!
Congratulations, you’ve gone bold on your walls. Now it’s time to layer decorative accessories in a palette that makes you smile. Try a bright red wall clock, ombre glassware or an array of cushions in colourful patterns. The idea is to make it personal with accents that instantly brighten your home.

A brighter storage situation
Who said shelving needs to be black or white? Colourful storage and easy-tomove trolleys in pastel hues keep a space organised yet full of personality. Or why not match your storage to your walls?

Mix it up or go tonal
Decorative pillows, bed linens and curtains add a splash of accent colour to each room. Go with a bold clash in the living area if you’re not keen on a matchymatchy vibe, or tone in with the bedroom walls for a pleasing sleep sanctuary that’s bright yet tranquil.

Create a gallery wall that integrates sound
Don’t forget, wall colour goes beyond choosing the right paint. Frame art prints, children’s drawings and photographs in a coordinated palette, then add Home Smart speakers for your very own gallery at home.
