How to Coordinate Your Floors and Your Walls

Decoration such as this is an important part of creating your dream home; it’s where the You comes in, and it’s how you begin to define your own personal sanctuary.

Once your custom home is planned, you may be wondering what kind of flooring you should use, and what color you’re going to paint your walls. Decoration such as this is an important part of creating your dream home; it’s where the You comes in, and it’s how you begin to define your own personal sanctuary. It’s also important to know what kind of flooring you want, so your contractors can take the appropriate actions. Read on to see how you can match your walls and your flooring.

Be Aware of Lighting

Do you have large windows? This can make a huge difference when it comes to what colors you could use for a room. For example, large windows can leave room for darker colors, like mahogany and darker green tones. That’s because they’ll open up the space and the color choices won’t make it feel cramped. If your lighting is subdued, or is in a basement, you may want to stick to lighter tones in order to open up the space.

Match Color Tones

Contrast is usually a good thing. Dark floors and light walls are a great combination, but you should be aware of color tones. Mahogany is a red-toned brown; your walls should match this, with a yellow or reddish undertone light color, such as peach. This can make the room seem uniform, but also contrasting.

Be Absolutely Sure of Your Floor

It’s way more expensive to replace a floor if you aren’t satisfied with it. So, make sure your floor choice is exactly right before you move to choosing a paint color. If you decide the color doesn’t match, you can always repaint for a much cheaper price. It’s important that you keep your style grounded in your flooring, no pun intended. Also, consider what that room is going to be used for. Flooring like carpet should be used sparingly, especially if there is the possibility of frequent messes.
