AUGUST 2022 - BEIGE 

it's August and what better month to want to feel relaxed and refreshed than this one. Summer is in full swing and we have the perfect palette to cool you off in the heat with this month's color of the month: Beige. 

Beige typically is used in a home as an alternative to white as its warming undertones keeps the space clean and simple whilst giving a more welcoming and homely feel. it's a shade that can be used in any or all rooms of your home with its muted tones that compliment any style. We can totally picture ourselves relaxing in a sandy beige room with a warm summer breeze blowing through an open window!

Unlike the connotations beige has acquired in its time, it's actually a great paint color to use as a backdrop to show off some deeper hues and be anything but - well - beige! When paired with other colors like deep turquoise, blush pink or russet brown it can create a calming environment for your home working perfectly as the color palette for the timeless yet modern aesthetic of mid-century modern design.

Another interior style beige works perfectly for is a rustic boho room that emcompases warm earthy colors with natural textiles for a place where you could unwind after a long workday. Achieve this by adding some low lighting, wicker or hessin accessories and even a bouquet of muted dried flowers to a beige backdrop. Its results will have you taking a deep breath in and banishing any daily stresses as soon as you step through your door.  

If you're looking to sell your home and want to increase your curb appeal with a fresh coat of paint on the exterior of your house, beige can be a perfect solution to give a neutral impression of the home before buyers even step foot inside. This way, potential buyers can better imagine themselves inhabiting the space and getting creative with landscaping and finishes being a great option to add some interest for your property. 

Looking for the perfect shade of beige? we recommend Natural Linen by Sherwin Williams. If you want to bring the excitement this summer, WOW 1 DAY PAINTING would love to help you transform your home!
