2. Choose A Focal Colour
2. Choose A Focal Colour (Image 2 of 16)
The easiest way of creating a focal point is by using one bold colour within an otherwise fairly neutral room, then by adding small details, such as accessories - cushions, vases, throws - around the room to pull the scheme together. Start off with a paint colour chart and/or fabric or wallpaper swatches to work out what you like, what suits the light in your room and what accessories are available within your budget (or already within your home) in toning shades.
