Mastering Accent Walls Like a Pro

As a Lower Mainland interior designer, I’m often asked about colour trends and how to incorporate them into homes. While classics will always be in style, there are some exciting developments in the world of colour for 2025. One of the most notable is the rise of warm, earthy tones. Think rich, burnished browns, terracotta hues, and deep greens. These colours create a grounding and comforting atmosphere, perfect for bringing a sense of warmth and intimacy to any space.

Another trend I’m seeing is the embracing of bold, jewel-toned accents. Think deep sapphires, emerald greens, and ruby reds. These colours add a touch of drama and sophistication, and can be used to create a focal point in a room. Don’t be afraid to experiment with these colours – even a small accent wall or a few pieces of furniture in a jewel tone can make a big impact.

Beyond individual colours, remember that the overall colour scheme of a room should be cohesive and create the desired mood.

  • For a calming and serene space, consider using a palette of soft blues, greens, and neutrals.
  • To energize a space and inspire creativity, opt for bright yellows, oranges, and reds.
  • For a sophisticated and timeless look, stick to a classic combination of black, white, and grey, and add in pops of colour through accessories.
