A design trend that we have seen take off lately is moody décor. Bright white kitchens and relaxing neutral living rooms are great, but have you experienced the power of moody colors? They can add a certain level of depth, sophistication, and calmness to your space that lighter colors just can’t achieve.
When we think of moody colors, dark blue, slate grey, emerald green, and black all come to mind. It’s important to remember that your room will need balance in the form of lighter accent pieces, especially if your walls are a moody color. Your living room might be a dark grey, but balance the moody color by pairing it with lighter flooring and furniture.
You could also pair dark walls with blush or pastels to instantly soften the room. This color combo can add a feeling of elegance and luxury. Think velvet pink pillows on the couch or even a headboard in a muted pastel for your bedroom.
Moody colors don’t have to only be used on your walls. For those wanting to gently ease into this look, start small with your accent pieces, such as bookshelves, a storage hutch, or even a couch or chairs. There are so many ways to incorporate this look into your home, but just remember that light neutrals will bring a relaxing balance to darker, moodier colors.
