The BE YOU palette is a tranquil one with its genial tones. The dark blue of New Breed and the bright Blue for You act as ballasts to the mid-tones of Strange Brew, Private Stock, Skin is In and the light mint green of Bluegrass Suite.

See the subtlety of this palette in the video below.

If you want to use different paint colors in a room, you don’t have to overthink it with the BE YOU palette because the colors match with each other. You can pick two or more paint colors and it would look stylish and interesting.

Tip: A room does not have only four walls. The ceiling is often referred to as the fifth wall. Also consider different colors for the baseboards and other architectural details like doors or window frames.

Also consider the colors of your furnitures and furnishings because they need to work with the colors of your walls. It would actually be best to choose the color of your biggest furniture first before you start thinking about the colors of your interior paints.

Read about the 60-30-10 rule of interior designers to achieve a cohesive look:

60% comes from the dominant wall color and big furniture pieces,
30% can be from accent furniture pieces, lighting or soft furnishings,
10% are home accessories, textiles, patterns, or textures.

The meaning of home is highly personal. Many of us consider home as a place of safety, comfort, warmth and love, where we can just be ourselves. At home, the feeling of belonging comes as naturally as breathing. With the BE YOU colors surrounding you, it would be easy to relax and be free to just be you.

Here’s a blessing which I think everyone deserves –

May you always be blessed with walls for the wind, a roof for the rain, a warm cup of tea by the fire, laughter to cheer you, those you love near you, and all that your heart might desire.
– Irish blessing
