White walls may sound boring, but it doesn’t have to be. White walls allow for you to add some accent to them while not compromising the appearance of a bigger room.

Yellow

When opting for yellow interior walls, I must mention how you need to look for a neutral. You never want to go to dark or too bright of a yellow. A subtle shade will go a long way. It is all about optical illusion, and picking a lighter shade will always make a space feel open opposed to a dark tone that will absorb light and make it seem minute. .

Pastels

Pastels will always make a room appear larger due to its inviting and light characteristics. A soft tone of blue, green, or pink will allow the maximum effect. For the room not to look dull, do not be afraid to use bold colored rugs, pillows, or so forth, as this will tie the room together and make it have a splendid appearance.

It is all bout picking the right colors and combining them together to adequately form an airy, open, and elegant living space. What colors have helped you make your rooms appear bigger?
