Yellow and Black

We love a high-contrast color scheme. They're playful, energizing and unique. Many homeowners fear these palettes, but with a little guidance, they can be absolutely showstopping. Take, for instance, the combination of black and vivid yellow. While your first thought might be of bumble bees, this curated bedroom is wordly and cool. by Amanda Harper

Orangeand Blue

When it comes to unexpected color schemes, it doesn't get much more surprising than the pairing of orange and blue. It feels familiar and yet totally different, warm yet cool, dynmaic yet comfortable; a true study in contrasts!

Making this contrast work for you means utilizing blue wherever possible then peppering in a few bold touches of orange. Wrap up the look with dark woods, leather and beige accents.

Pinkand Green

Is there any color combo more classically southern than pink and green? Whether you favor hot pink and lime or pretty blushes and sage, it's hard to top this dynamic duo of color! That said, this is a color pairing that asks you to tread lightly. To prevent visual burnout, use these hues throughout a space that is otherwise fairly neutral. Shades of pink and green always look great with golds and brass, but black metal accents can really allow these shades to shine!

If you're hoping to make your space light, bright and airy, look no further; this is the color scheme you need. M Loves M Blakely Interior Design

LUXE Interiors + Design Fuschiaand Brown

When it comes to irreverent color schemes, nothing can top fuschia. Falling somewhere between rich purple and striking magenta, this color is an instant conversation starter.

But that boldness comes at a price. On its own, this powerhouse hue can come across as very unsophisticated, even juvenile. That's where warm, honeyed browns come in.

Natural woods, deep leather and soft beige tones help ground fanciful fuschia. Yellow, gold and brass accents bring tons of visual appeal and glam. However you approach this constrasting combo, remember that less is always more with fuschia. HomeDesignNow Matthew Carter Interiors
