Opposites attract attention, that is. In other words, contrasting colors create a more interesting room! What is contrast you ask? It's the designer's trick to making a color pop! If you want to go bold with color think about opposites on the color wheel. For instance blue is a great color and can be very relaxing, but add orange and all of a sudden you have drama! The same can go for many other colors, like greens and reds. Just look at the room above and imagine it with out the pops of orange, it just wouldn't be the same.
If you want to kick up your color palette a notch, let the color wheel be your guide and use contrasting or opposite colors in a room. How awesome, would it be to have a room that you don't want to leave and makes your friends say "Wow!"? That's the power of color and using it the in just the right combination. So, if you are stuck with a boring room, pick one of the colors and pop in it's opposite to give it drama!
