When I first envisioned my living/work space a few years ago, I wanted colored walls and neutral linens. I almost got what I wanted. My walls are lilac. Some of my accents are nutmeg. There was a plan for sage linens that never materialized.
Fie years of living in this soothing color scheme wears on your activity level after a while, though, so I’ve been thinking about how I’d like to revamp the color scheme. I’m thinking about moving my nutmeg to the walls, and maybe switching the lilac for a rich shade of blue.
Oddly enough, this was inspired by a towel thrown over a shirt. I’m not sure how I feel about the middle color, but attempts to apply color theory to the initial blue (#1) and brown (#2) made me cringe. I do love the richness of colors, and I think the browns would give this space a warmth it’s been sorely lacking for the past few years.
On a positive note, I got to name two colors: Shallow Waters and Wet Sand. There are so many “discovered” colors on the site that this is actually a bit of an accomplishment.
