Before the school season returns, many of us are taking the time to revamp and transform our children’s bedroom, nursery or playroom and what better way to do this than with a fresh lick of paint.
Choosing the right shade of paint is an important place to start whether you want to instil a playful tone or create a soothing sanctuary. Colour has the ability to inspire, excite and calm, so picking out the right colour for a child’s space shouldn’t be underestimated. Finding the right balance is just like picking their name – it depends on their personality and energy.
This month, Colourtrend is celebrating bright and colourful shades that evoke joy, nostalgia, excitement and peace in the home. Beag, a gorgeous charming hue, immediately instils a sense of calmness and an uplifting vibe. It is a soft, versatile, millennial pink that can work with an array of interior styles and other sweet pastel shades such as Frog Green, Cuckoo Call, Anu and, Newgrange. These pick ‘n’ mix inspired shades are associated with innocence and childhood nostalgia, proving to be popular choices for nurseries or a child’s bedroom.
In contrast, Beag also works well when teamed with bold and vibrant colours such as Genesis or Inkwell as well as lighter cooler hues such as Temperance or Dairy Parlour. The opposites attract theory comes in to play when you’re looking to create a more playful tone, making this contrasting scheme a great choice for energetic and fun filled spaces such as a child’s playroom.
A well thought out home colour scheme can carry you and your little ones through the night-long feedings, colicky cries, early milestones and long into the years of creating memories at home as a family.
