Wood makes a wonderful accent for the interior of the home, the natural element provides an unequaled design. When using wood the color palate that you select can make a dramatic difference in how the space is perceived.
To find your most complementary combinations keep these tips in mind:
Grey
Weathered or blonde woods are well represented with this color. It also works well with black stains. Finding a light blue with grey undertones will make walnut pop in a room.
Blue, Aqua, Turquoise
All of these shades are an excellent way to accent the warm honey or amber wood tones.
Whites, Creams, Ivory
These are staples when it comes to wood trim. When using a cream it is important to stay away from yellow undertones and whites should never be bright.
Brown and Beige
Given the natural hues of wood, it is an easy matter to find an acceptable brown, tan, or beige that will blend with wood elements.
Green
Of the colors found in the outdoors, wood and greens are the greatest combination.
You can make the most of your interior design by finding the right color match to your natural wood elements.
