Ultra-Light Mint

Designer Jae Joo brightened up this old Boston Rowhouse with a fresh coat of ultra-light mint green paint. The warmth of the exposed brick accent wall, railing, artwork, and dresser fill the space with character and history for a smooth balance.

Black Chalk Paint

This entryway designed by Garrow Kedigian is whimsical yet elegant, thanks to the drawn-on moldings. Matte black walk paint gives the space a moody, intimate atmosphere to contrast the more playful elements for a balanced whole.

Neon Pink

Intense, eye-catching, and adventurous, the neon pink walls in this townhouse designed by Jonathan Berger make quite the first impression. Use it in a foyer for a warm, welcoming, impossible-to-forget entrance, or to embolden a lackluster hallway.

Gray-Brown

Kim Alexandruik's motto is to "go for impact." Use it as an opportunity to play with unusual seating and colorful artwork that may be harder to integrate into other rooms. Her color of choice is a "putty-colored gray, with a hint of pink and lavender. Not too light, so it doesn't go vapid," says Aleandruik. Use this hallway designed by Mally Skok as inspiration.

The plum cabinetry in this mudroom designed by Whittney Parkinson gives the area a calming presence. When paired with wicker baskets and brown tiled flooring, it's even more earthy and homey.

Red and Lavender

If you're feeling adventurous, color-block with two bold shades. Follow this living room by Katie Brown as an example, using the fresh color combination of fire engine red and violet in this space. And see how the pillows tie everything together so nicely? That's another great way to approach the living room design process: Start with a fun pair of throw pillows and then pull out your two favorite colors to highlight on the walls and ceiling.

Dutch Blue

Game rooms should be fun, so don't shy away from color! Designer and homeowner Fitz Pullins opted for a bold blue that's perfect for both daytime fun and dressier evenings. That neon light in the corner is a nice touch, too.

Pale Green

When you want a light neutral but find white too stark and beige too boring, opt for a super pale shade of green. Green-infused grays will feel like a breath of fresh air and adds just the right touch of intrigue as a backdrop for the gallery wall in this living room designed by Tamsin Johnson.

Sky Blue

The artwork in this living room designed by Kingston Lafferty truly comes to life when paired with the color-blocked ceiling, walls, and fireplace, the sputnik light, and patterned chairs. In fact, the space itself is like a work of art. To replicate this look, opt for a lighter shade of blue on the largest section of the wall and then a more saturated shade of blue on a small piece, like a fireplace.

Sage Green

No color creates a soothing atmosphere quite like sage green. Use it in your living room or in a library, as designer Melanie Turner did here in a historic Atlanta home's scrapbook-filled study. Paired with cozy seating of a similar color and a fireplace, the space makes for an ideal nook to sit down and get lost in a book.

Violet

Hand-painted murals can mimic the effect of wallpaper by introducing a story and pattern. But it's also safer inn splash zones like the kitchen, where wallpaper may feel a little more risky for some. Here, the lavender swirls of paint on a buttercream backdrop complement the elaborate blue chandelier, too. Then the classic, neutral cabinets and island ground the space.

Flat Black

In this midcentury Hudson Valley home, GRT Architects painted all the walls and windows a low gloss black to foreground the view and accentuate the large windows. The inky tone also helps contemporize and dress up the family kitchen.

Kelly Green

Verdant and fresh, there's a reason green works in every room. Pick between lime, pea, and clover for a nature-inspired space. If you aren't sure about covering the whole room in something so wild, just paint the trims and/or doors. In this energizing kitchen designed by Anna Spiro, the pops of high-gloss Kelly green do the trick.

Avoid ho-hum neutrals. These go-to basics feature a few surprises, like a smoky lavender, moss green, and chocolate brown. In this galley kitchen designed by Heidi Caillier, the smoky paint brings some polish and formality.

A vivid green scheme instantly commands attention, making it the perfect choice for a kitchen conceived for entertaining. Take note of this one designed by SuzAnn Kletzien. The cabinets, crown and base moldings, and window trim are all painted in Benjamin Moore's Hunter Green in a satin finish. "It's a very appetizing color," Kletzien says.

Bright Orange

Don't neglect your pantry—it could use a fresh coat of paint, too. Consider covering exposed shelving in a bright orange hue for an unexpected and playful pop in a room that's often fairly dull. In this pantry, Pulp Design Studio used Sherwin-Williams Daredevil in a satin finish.

Burnt Orange

In a casual apartment dining nook designed by Emil Dervish, a pop of burnt orange spices up the entire area. The deep red and brown undertones keep things edgy and streamlined but make it just a touch more cheerful. The steel blue sconce adds a quirky touch while the concrete planter stays in line with the industrial vibe.

Dusty Purple

Though purple and black don't seem like the most obvious pair for a grownup, calming bedroom, they actually work together brilliantly here. Kingston Lafferty Design accentuated the purple details in the shelf and bedding with a dusty, gray purple tone and then played up the cooler undertones with sharper black metal accents.

High Gloss Red Moldings

Only the moldings are painted in this bedroom designed by Anna Spiro while the rest of the surfaces are covered in texture-rich materials, from the floral wallpaper to the sisal carpeting. Spiro opted for a higher sheen of this red hue to make the architectural details pop even more (and also because the higher the sheen, the easier to clean!).

Cocoa

With slightly less of the red clay undertone than other popular brown paint colors, this one is more calming than it is energizing. Designer Fiona Lynch felt it was perfect for a bedroom. She used Rich Biscuit by Dulux and then mixed in some offbeat accents for an eclectic elegance.

Dusty Pink

If you love the romantic, sweet qualities of light pink but don't want it to be too saturated, opt for a nice dusty rose. This one has a mysterious smokiness to it that's softened by the whimsical accents. "Exuberantly feminine, yet resolutely chic" was designer Jonathan Berger's motto for decorating this Brooklyn townhouse. Berger found the Suzani on eBay, while and the curvy Venetian-inspired headboard is covered in Nouvelle Orleans, a cut velvet from Clarence House.

Deep Eggplant

In this modern yet retro bedroom designed by Atelier ND, the walls are painted in Pontefract by Paint & Paper Library for a bold and rich mood. The immersive and unique hue defies definition (but if we had to try, we'd say it's a purplish-reddish black)—which is one of the many reasons the design team chose it. Even the radiator becomes cool when painted in it! The pendants were sourced from an old church and wall-to-wall carpeting never looked better.

David Frazier connected this New York City apartment bedroom to nature but also ensured that it didn't look out of place thanks to the Studio Green Farrow & Ball paint, antique furniture, and crisp bedding. Color aside, the texture-rich finish elevates the walls even further. "We wanted to showcase the movement in the plaster, so we had the walls painted in a satin finish it gives a certain depth that we wouldn’t have been able to achieve with a flat paint.”

Coral

Nothing quite radiates like joy like coral (as far as paint colors are concerned, at least). In this bedroom by Nicky Kehoe, it picks up the bright tones featured in the gallery wall while the trimming, which is a darker gray color, reflects the cooler neutrals in the bedding and accents. Under direct light, it appears brighter, while it mimics the more muted shade of terra cotta in dimmer or less direct light.

4 cool ideas - INMYROOM

Tips

You've never seen such beauty! But most importantly, you can realize all our ideas yourself

A beautiful interior with original decor is not always expensive. Some things you can do yourself with a minimum set of tools at hand.

We specifically turned to decorator Sasha Mershiev, and he not only shared cool ideas, but also showed in great detail, literally step by step, how to implement them. Believe me, even those who have never done anything like this will cope!

Sasha Mershiev

Decorator, designer

Founder of "Krasyat Tut" studio

Bright Dragon

Let's start with perhaps the most simple idea...

dragon is what you need. It is quite simple to perform and will not take you much time. You will need:

  • A4 size thick watercolor or pastel paper,
  • frame for it,
  • printer,
  • airbrush,
  • wide art brush.

On thick paper, using the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printer, we print the image of the oriental dragon we like.

Without losing a minute, we moisten the printout with plenty of water from a spray bottle.

We go over with a damp brush, slightly blurring the ink, erasing the brightness. Carefully collect excess water with a wrung out brush.

The main thing is to get beautiful stains and a pattern with the effect of antiquity.

Then we dry the sheet, laying it horizontally: it is important - not near the radiator and not with a hair dryer, otherwise it will warp.

Then framed and hung on the wall. It's easy, right?

INMYROOM Tip: As you can see, Canon's imagePROGRAF PRO-300 printer took an active part in our workshop, and I must say, we were impressed with its capabilities!

First of all, it is quite compact - it fits easily on a desk and does not interfere with the workflow.

Secondly, it simply amazingly conveys colors - no matter what picture we choose on the Internet, when printed, it looked exactly like from the monitor screen.

And by the way, you can change the color gamut or select the desired paper setting yourself - there is a convenient LCD control panel on the front panel of the printer. Photographers will especially appreciate this feature. As well as the exceptional quality of monochrome printing: black and white photos printed on the imagePROGRAF PRO-300 are something!

And the imagePROGRAF PRO-300 printer:

Prints on sheets of any quality and size - from regular office paper to thick A3+ watercolor or oil sheets. And the imagePROGRAF PRO-300 can print a panoramic image nearly ten meters long!

Easily handles any number of different images: color or black and white, simple or with lots of complex details - print equally fast, the speed does not slow down even for a second.

Connects to a PC or Mac via Wi-Fi or Ethernet - no wire mess! And you can forget about ink replacement for a long time - the imagePROGRAF PRO-300 works very economically.

Victorian Duck

An eye-catching decor that you're sure will be new to making!

For lovers of classics and things with history, our miniature looks exactly like a valuable find from an antique shop located somewhere in the narrow streets of London. You will need:

    • Plywood, wooden plank or MDF round or square shape,
    • Frame for it,
    • Printer,
    • Adhesive soil,
    • Small -sized brush,
    • Golden Kravka in a bellic.
    • liquid varnish,
    • dishwashing sponge.

    Selecting a color image of a drake from the Internet. We send it via Wi-Fi to the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printer for printing.

    We print the image on ordinary A4 size office paper.

    I must say that the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO reproduces colors absolutely accurately - the image you select on the Internet will be exactly the same in printed form.

    We take a blank from plywood, a wooden plank or MDF. We primed it with adhesive primer in one layer.

    Then apply two coats of gold metallic paint from a spray can.

    We cover a layer of paint with varnish ...

    and, without waiting for it to dry, apply the printed image with the front part to the workpiece.

    Press well and wait for the varnish to dry - approximately 30-40 minutes.

    Now the most important part: gently wipe the paper layer by layer with a wet sponge - the ink remains in the varnish.

    Let dry and frame!

    And a cheerful parrot...

    It will not only bring bright colors to your interior, but will also be a wonderful gift!

    In our latitudes, especially in the long long winter, the sun is so lacking! Therefore, such decor will never be superfluous. And by the way, if you are not surrounded by strict classics, this cheerful parrot will be appropriate in any interior - from Scandinavian to loft style.

    You will need:

    • A3 size solid plain paper,
    • frame for it,
    • printer,
    • scissors,
    • pencil,
    • paper

    We print different bright patterns on the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printer - graphics and abstraction, paisley pattern and check - most importantly, variety! The more combinations, the better.

    We find a graphic image of a parrot that we like on the Internet and print it out. By the way, you can also print the background for our parrot on a Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printer - A3 format is not a problem for him!

    Cut it out. On the reverse side, we outline large parts - the head, beak, wing. We get a kind of "pattern".

    Choose the main pattern - the body of a parrot.

    Apply the pattern, trace the outline of the parrot with a pencil and cut it out.

    Then cut out smaller details.

    We transfer the details to the printed patterns, trace them with a pencil and cut them out.

    The more different patterns, the brighter the parrot!

    We assemble our parrot on A3 sheet, gluing the parts one by one with PVA glue or ordinary glue stick.

    Carefully press down the parts so that they stick together well.

    Insert it into the frame - our parrot is ready!

    Wall of book pages

    If you have a book that you have wanted to read for a long time, but could not do it, you have found the way out. With this decor, you will definitely master it!

    Or maybe you have a favorite book - even better! An occasion to make an unusual and spectacular wall decoration out of it - for example, in an office. The main thing is to measure the area for decor in advance and calculate the required number of pages. You will need:


    • Book,
    • Printer,
    • Scissors,
    • Pulverizer,
    • Any paint: Interior, Acrylic or Cretaceous, Article
    • Article
    • stationery glue or PVA / carnations with a hat.

    Photographing the pages of a book, both text and illustrations.

    We print our photos on the Canon imagePROGRAF PRO printer in the required quantity - according to the size of your wall.

    Carefully cut each page into shape.

    Wet each page with a spray gun, keeping it at a distance of 30-40 cm from it. We begin to apply it on a wet sheet, forming stains and smudges. You can take a wider brush, moisten it with water and blend large strokes.

    Then glue page by page onto the wall section, either with glue or with normal capped nails.
