Good design in home staging doesn't just happen.
It requires a well thought out plan.
A plan to creatively mix, layer, and weave together a tapestry of colors and textures that, when done well, willresult in a stylishly inviting home with broad "buyer appeal"! When it comes to the world of color, I've learned the importance of knowing how to use just the right combination of hues to create drama, give an otherwise non-descript room a personality, as well as accentuate key areas and architectural details of the home.
And of course, color can make the difference between a home that feels warm and inviting versus one that gives off a cold, sterile and unwelcoming message to prospective buyers.
Color choices are powerful .
.
.
with the right paint colors you can easily, and affordably update the look of a home, both inside and out.
With the right accent colors you can transform a rather drab and lifeless room into one that is both exciting and memorable.
With the right color selections you can psychologically communicate with your buyer .
.
.
using reds to convey a message of power and excitement, blues to evoke feelings of tranquility, shades of pink have been proven to have a calming effect, whilechoosing golden yellows will signify happiness and light.
And if you want to create a feeling of life and growth be sure to incorporate shades of greens into your color scheme.
