How to Mix Colors and Make It Work


White on white, white mixed with gray and, hmm, maybe a little more white is an in-demand look, but some people want a bit of bold color in their palettes. Semineutrals are colors that can't be considered true neutrals, but are still easy to combine and work with. Tone on Tone is an easy way to mix colors, combining pure, chilly blues with green-blues or blue-indigos to get subtle variation while keeping the hues tied together. Warm colors can also make for engaging tone-on-tone looks, but it's usually safer to stick to lighter shades for walls and large pieces to avoid color overload. More is more is an approach to mix color with more color, using a colorful piece of art as inspiration and fabric accents that echo a similar palette. This room by Tamara Mack Design feels exceptionally colorful, even though most of the other pieces are neutral.
