A great follow up to spring cleaning is updating the look of your home. Reframing existing artwork is one way to rejuvenate the look in any room. The variety of framing materials available allows you to create any setting from ultra casual to highly elegant.
If you’re completely revamping the look of a room or would like to choose new artwork, here are a few of the “2009 Color Trends in Décor” provided by The Color Marketing Group, a non-profit group that helps identify current and future color trends.
Blue is the New Green — Various greens have symbolized “green living” over the last few years, but in 2009 the “green” environmental message is delivered by the color blue. There are watery blues, sky blues and a whole range of blues that now represent our commitment to living on a greener planet.
Cooled-down, Greyed-out Browns and Greys — Complex neutrals satisfy our urge toward classic colors in an economically challenged time. They also bridge the area between black, which seems harsh, and brown, which doesn’t seem strong enough.
Yellow for Energy – The neutrals may have greyed, but look for lots and lots of bright vivid yellow to give us energy as we re-build the economy. It’s the stand-out accent color for 2009.
