Color Winner
This room uses nearly every hue imaginable, yet it is the red wall that commands the most attention. Red makes a terrific background color for the ++++ves and is enlivened by its pairing with the vibrant green walls of the sunroom space.
Quilted
Any single element can be the inspiration for a color scheme. The room's multitonal quilt is the reason for the purple and red pillowcases, and lets our eye connect the two elements.
Boring to Bright
Tired of a neutral kitchen? Give it an inexpensive makeover with paint! Mouthwatering red imparts a vibrant personality that reflects the homeowner's love of color.
Focal Point Wall
Make no mistake in this room: the focal point is definitely the fireplace and surrounding wall area. Though red does not appear anywhere in the furnishing, the warm wall hue keeps this space from being too beige and boring.
Crimson Accents
Rev up the look of a wall of book++++ves by painting the back wall in an accent color. This inexpensive decorator's trick makes all the difference and creates a focal point out of a typical room element.
Red, White, and Chinese Blue
This ho-hum bath takes on a grander look and feel through the liberal application of red paint. Lots of white keeps the look open, while traditional blue-and-white accessories add an Oriental theme.
Color IQ
Zip up a color palette with touches of cherry red. Notice how little red was used, yet this entry feels surrounded in perky shades of bright color.
Red in Bed
Focus all the color on your bed with a set of patterned sheets, blankets, and pillows. Bedding is a great way to experiment with a new color.
Child-Like Boldness
Kids' rooms are the perfect place to pair bright color with bold pattern. Try a playful wallpaper, such as the one in this room, or experiment on your own with paint and stencils.
Double Duty
If you have the chutzpah to purchase a show-stopping piece of contemporary furniture, why not go further and get it upholstered in fire-engine red? Your functional furniture will double as a work of art
Test the Red Waters
If you're not sure about committing a wall (or four) to bright red, try adding it bit by bit with accessories. Artwork, small furniture, or a pillow and throw can help you decide if you red is a color you can live with.
Gallery Instruction
An accent wall can solve many a decorating woe. Use it to add a burst of red to a room and showcase a large work of art. The whole wall acts as a pseudo-frame for the piece, which works especially well in long, narrow rooms.
Color Tactics
Cranberry red walls add rich formality to this living room. A wall this bold acts as an accessory, so use open bookcases and leaves lots of space for the wall to peep through.
Garden Pinks
Soft pink and green prints bring the garden indoors. Curtains tied back on the sides of the bed create an interesting focal point. Feminine touches like pretty prints and lace details complete the room.
Lemonade Inspiration
Whether it's pink or yellow, lemonade is a favorite summertime drink. More than a sweet beverage, it is also an inspiring color palate. Here, yellow and pink create a space as refreshing as cold lemonade. Balancing light and vibrant shades of both colors keeps the space from being tart.
Porch Perfect
A bright shade of pink looks right at home with white wicker furniture. Green and pink fabrics give the space a garden feel that's perfect for a porch. Because the furniture is neutral white, it would be easy to add other colors when inspiration strikes. Introduce a color like golden yellow or a darker pink for an instant facelift.
Pink Dreams
The color combination of pink, white, and black can take on many personalities. In this room, the trio presents itself as whimsically traditional. Clouds of white bedding are accented by a pink bed skirt and walls. Touches of black, like on the wrought-iron bed and wardrobe, tie the soft-hued room together. Light-colored walls allow antique silhouette pictures to pop.
Pink Goes Country French
Neutral walls and window treatments set the stage for a color scheme of pink, yellow, and green. Pink becomes the standout color as it makes an appearance on furniture, rugs, and linens. The striped couch and toile chair personify Country French style. Accessories like old books and a graceful area rug add to the style of the room.
Country Charm
A linen paint finish in deep pink dresses down this quaint vessel sink. Touches of white, like on the mirror, baseboards, and accessories, tie the space together. A rag rug and fabric accents on the stool and sink cabinet give the bathroom a folksy flair.
Modern Chic
Pink in one of its richest and boldest forms, fuchsia, makes a statement against a black-and-white backdrop. Fuchsia table runners dress up a black cabinet. A bubblegum pink accent wall adds more pink flair. Graphic black-and-white wallpaper provides contrast and adds to the modern atmosphere.
With Room to Grow
This combination guest room and baby nursery was decorated with an eye to the future. Without just-for-the-moment baby motifs, the room exudes quiet sophistication in pale pink. The room can be modified to grow from toddler to teen years.
What's +++++ng?
Warm up pink with golden tones and you have coral -- a color that brings on sophisticated fun. This soft combination of pink and orange is a far cry from cooler, blue-toned pinks that can have a chilly feel. The bright color wakes up this white kitchen. Because it has golden tones, pairing coral with yellow is a no-fail color combination.
Shabby Chic Retreat
A floral accent pillow's background color is brought to the forefront. The soft green is repeated on the walls and furniture. Pink is the accent color, appearing in the fabrics and bedding, along with lots of cool white.
