4 Home Colour Palette Ideas We Love in 2024
Another new year is underway—and if you've resolved to refresh your home in 2024, changing up your colour palette can make all the difference. Luckily for you, our designers have recently collaborated on some up-and-coming colour palette ideas for 2024 and beyond. So, if you've been looking for inspiration for revamping your living room, bedroom, or any other space in your home, this can be an excellent starting point for you.
The Importance of Colour in Modern Interior Design
Colour has the power to do so much in your living space. A strategically selected colour palette, for example, can change the perception of space in a room—making walls appear taller and square footage feel more expansive. Meanwhile, colour can also create focal points in a room by drawing the eye to (or away from) certain features within the space. At the same time, colour can evoke a certain mood and contribute to the overall atmosphere of a space.
By understanding the psychology of colour and the impact different hues can have on emotions, you can work toward selecting a colour palette or scheme that makes your mood soar every time you walk into the room.
1. Classic Black and White
There's just something about a contrasting black-and-white colour scheme that's absolutely timeless. Focusing on a black-and-white colour palette in your space can add a unique, eye-catching edge that will get your guests talking. Meanwhile, black and white can be used to draw attention to certain features in a space, such as a stunning fireplace or a bold accent wall.
Ideas and Applications
Looking to incorporate a black and white colour scheme in your home decor? Try making a statement by choosing one focal point in the room and painting it a contrasting colour. For example, you might opt for black walls surrounding a stark white marble fireplace, which will naturally draw the eye to that lovely surround. Likewise, a bold black dining room table in a space that's otherwise white and bright can draw your attention to a great piece of furniture.
If you want to get even more adventurous, consider adding an accent metallic, such as gold or bronze, to your home decor.
2. Candy Couture
Think fun and festive—red, yellow, purple, pink, and green. These colours, when used strategically, have the power to transform any space with a fresh look and feel.
Ideas and Applications
When opting for a candy colour scheme, it's generally best to stick to just one or two colours as your anchor. This will prevent your space from looking too busy or disjointed. If you’re looking to go bold, consider citrus colors such as orange, lemon, and lime.
From there, you can accessorise with white or natural wood furniture and decor to create an uplifting space.
3. Timeless Neutrals
When it comes to interior design trends for the coming year, it's no surprise that neutrals are on the list. Not only do they help evoke a tranquil atmosphere, but this colour scheme can also brighten up a small living space while essentially serving as a blank canvas for your home decor and furniture.
Ideas and Applications
So, how can you use a neutral colour scheme to maximise your home interior design? Try adding different tints of your favourite neutrals to really make your space pop. Tonal colours (like different shades of brown or beige) with highlight pieces can really make a statement. Meanwhile, if you want to get a little bolder with your design, you can always add some fun pops of colour. Colourful side table lamps, accent pillows, and window treatments can go a long way here.
4. Greens and Natural Shades
Bring the beauty of the outdoors into your home with a colour palette that's focused on earthy greens and other natural shades. This kind of colour scheme can create an approachable feel in your space while evoking a calming quality that you'll fall in love with. Deep greens, browns, and other warm naturals can add an air of elegance to any room with minimal effort.
Ideas and Applications
Natural and earthy colours tend to pair well with warm wooden furniture, such as oak. Black and brass accents can also go a long way in incorporating tasteful accents to your primary colour scheme, so consider something like a black-framed mirror or even a brass floor lamp to take your interior design to the next level.
