Home Remodeling: Hot Colors for Fall
By: Leslie Pandey, Senior Content Writer/Editor | August 21, 2008
Are you remodeling or redecorating? Then you’re probably looking for some inspiration in the color department. One tip: Look no further than fall’s fashion runways. Fashion trends often dictate what’s hot in home decor. So, if you’re looking to get a jump-start on next season’s trends, check out Pantone’s hot colors for fall 2008. Saturated tones of both warm and cool colors dominate the list. But how do they look in actual rooms? I was inspired by this great post on the Material Girls blog to find rooms from Dueling Digs that put these bold colors to use:

I have found that my clients are crazy about “Anjou Pear” and “Whole Wheat” by Sherwin Williams.

Every home remodeling requires different approach. Before you start your new custom home construction project, there are things that you must consider. Like remodeling in Woodridge, you must think and consider your home’s location, size, budget, and the environment before proceeding to home construction in NY.

It doesn’t matter what your reasons for having home improvement for this will guarantee a higher return of investment just the same. This is why many homeowners avail service from a Vancouver renovation company to ensure the best look for their home.

Even though it is now the fall of 2009 I hope it’s not a designing faux pas if I still use Ochre or Aurora Red in my new bedroom/bathroom extension! Seriously tho’ lovely examples of non-standard color use. I especially like the stippling (or is it sponging) of the orange in the bedroom.
