Colour Trends for 2014!

Spring is just around the corner, so why wait any longer for the full colour of spring!

‘Tis the season where the trees start to awaken and the sun is rising earlier.  I think I speak for most when I say that we are eager for Spring to arrive. A fresh coat of paint inside your home? Why not! That could be the easiest way to get a jump-start on Spring.

The multitude of paint chips at any store would be a daunting task.  However, with the help from experts at Para Paints, things got a little easier.  Not all home owners have access to a professional designers eye so Para Paints ‘Colour Trend Palette Postcards’ for 2014 make the task more comfortable. This tool is formatted as a handy passport and all of the trends evoke a sense of escape or renewal.

“Beach House’ is a colour trend combination that brightens with cheerful yellows, matching grey neutrals and accent colours of bright  blues and greens.  Para Paints chosen colour of the year, Plantain Chips (PF52), is the perfect feature for the beach house inspired room.

These newest palettes provide the inspiration for refreshed  and rejuvenated rooms without the guesswork of choosing complementary colours.

“It can be expensive to completely redo a room, so the trick is to find a starting point for a colour refresh in your existing decor scheme,” says Garry Belfall , the senior brand Manager at Para Paints. “The 2014 Colour Trend Palette Postcards are designed to help people see how vibrant colours and complimentary neutrals can work together.”

A refresh on any room in your home  is a sure way to kick-start a new season.  It can be as simple as switching out one or two of your colours choices from an accent wall, rug or even couch cushions. It can make a world of a difference.
