MIX NEUTRALS WITH THE REST OF THE COLOR WHEEL One of the best ways to create excitement with neutrals is to use them as a background think neutral walls paired with neutral upholstery. Then add pops of color. Colorful accent pillows. A colorful pouf like the Seville by KKbyKOKET, either in full-on color or just a touch of color on top with the bottom carrying on a neutral palette. Accessories, lighting, and drapery are another great way to add pops of color to a neutral backdrop.

BE BOLD WITH BLACK While black is technically considered a neutral, by mixing black with the softer neutral colors like white, tan and taupe you can create a truly striking space. Try a black accent wall or a small piece of upholstery like the Privê Day Bed by KOKET. Black accents can create dramatic pops in a neutral space, so again think accent pillows, lighting or go for a chic black wood finish like on KKbyKOKET’s Arendal Chair.

DON’T FORGET METALLICS ARE NEUTRALS If you want to create glamour with a neutral palette adding metallics will do the trick. Warm metallics like gold and bronze or cool metallics like pewter and silver are a fabulous way to create allure while staying within the neutral color family. And don’t just think about metal lighting or furniture, a stunning metallic textile as shown on KOKET’s Luscious Sofa is a great way to bring in metallics. 1. Luscious | Sofa 2. Ribbon | Console 3.

LAYER & BLEND Neutrals can definitely be boring if all the surfaces and pieces take on the same tones and textures. But one of the beautiful things about neutrals is how they show off texture and pattern allowing the same color to take on a completely different feel. So when designing with neutrals layer and blend tones, textures, and materials for added excitement. Layering can be done throughout the space or by choosing a single piece like KOKET’s Untamed Console which features a variety of neutral textures, shades, and materials all in one statement design. 1.

BRING IN NATURE Neutral tones are also often called earth tones as these natural shades come in abundance in nature. So what better way to add dimension to a neutral space than with natural materials. Think raffia, stone, and wood. All these materials can be brought in through flooring, wall coverings, or with furniture and lighting. And don’t limit yourself to pieces made of just one natural material or with only a rustic appearance. Designs like the Fleur Nightstand by KOKET that features a sheen lacquered finish and whimsical stylized floral wood marquetry is a unique and glamorous way to bring nature in.
