Hello! One of the easiest and most effective way to experiment with colour in our interior spaces is by using it in small doses. One example is instead of colouring an entire room , to feel what the colour would be like, use it in the doors. There are lots of times when we are indecisive about using or trying out bright colours in our spaces not knowing whether or not it will work for us, so trying it out in a small area can help us experiment. If we colour a small area of a space like the openings, the investment is not too great and if the colour selected is not suitable, it can always be changed with minimal effort. Also if you live in a rental property where there are strict restrictions on what you can and cannot do, using colour in small doses might be an only option to create a look that you like. Let’s take a look at 10 different ways to enhance the look of a space by using colour in itsy bitsy small doses.
1. Colour the internal doors.
