When you have a better sense of what paint designs you like, it’s now time to decide where it will look best in your home. A dazzling geometric wall in a master bedroom can create a dramatic headboard effect, an?ombré?wall in a bathroom can submerge you into relaxation mode, and bright stripes can add some quirk to your child’s bedroom.

Don’t be shy about choosing a space that all your guests will see. After all, a statement wall is a great conversation piece. Consider using bold colors and geometric paint patterns. This creative design will set your statement wall up nicely. Wherever you decide, visiting company will certainly have some, “I would have never thought of that” envy.

Stay in Proportion

Stripes have been a hallmark pattern in interior design. They make their way onto pillows, rugs, window treatments and bedding. They’ve covered just about every inch of the design world––even walls. They’re so versatile in their ability to mix beautifully with both solids and other patterns. They’re essentially the neutral of the pattern world.

If you’ve decided to introduce stripes onto your walls, proportion is an important design element to keep in mind. The size of your space can help you decide how thick or thin you want your stripes.

Thicker stripes work best in larger rooms where they make a statement but also have just the right amount of subtlety to not feel overwhelming. A good location for this larger sized pattern would be in the living room.

Thin stripes on a large wall can become overwhelming and make the room look too busy. Too wide of a stripe in a small room can make them lose their impact. Horizontal stripes help guide people’s eyes across a room, while vertical stripes can make a room feel wider and taller. Your CertaPro Painters? team can help you determine how to best play to your room’s strengths and hide its weaknesses.

Color Outside (and Inside) the Lines

Geometric patterns can be bold and modern, bright and whimsical or muted and sophisticated. It all depends on what feeling you want to achieve for the space. A statement wall doesn’t have to be punchy when it comes to color choice.

You can use a color palette of?neutrals?or muted hues in a geometric pattern in rooms, like a bedroom or bathroom, where you may want to relax. If you do want something large and loud, start by selecting one color and then use the color wheel to help determine two or three complementary colors to complete the perfect color scheme.

Your primary color’s first complementary color will be the one directly opposite of it on the color wheel. You can find additional complementary colors by selecting the hues just to the left or right of your first complementary color. A CertaPro Painters??color consultant?can help you wheel around if you’re feeling overwhelmed.

Bring Patterns into Your Space

In addition to helping you shape up your walls, the CertaPro Painters? team also offers specialty faux painting services to create textures, styles and effects that would otherwise require building materials.
