How to Use Paint to Draw Attention to the Room’s Features
 
Staging and paint should help a buyer see the home’s potential and beautiful features but many times it is done poorly and actually detracts from the homes natural beauty.
 
Guest Bathroom
PW8603714 - Bath
I love the crisp and clean feel of this bathroom but it is not boring because the pop of blue color helps the eyes look at the features. That great big mirror that makes the bathroom look a lot bigger than it is. The deep blue is serene and calming but also beautiful and eye catching. It helps the bathroom be remembered and not brushed off.
 
The placement and use of the folded towels and the wicker basket makes the room feel warm and even “spa” like.
 
Dining Room
PW8603714 - Dining Room
 
This is dining room looks big and inviting with gorgeous crown molding and wainscoting. The peaceful blue color also helps the white trim features really pop! It also helps the room feel very light and airy which is great in a formal dining room since sometimes they can feel too dark and traditional for younger buyers.
 
Kitchen
PW8603714 - Kitchen
This kitchen feels modern and warm with a beautiful grey for the walls. Grey is neutral yet very modern and appealing to current buyers. The grey color also helps the beautiful cabinets, appliances, and counters stand out instead of being distracted by a different color on the walls.
 
Living Room
PW8603714 - Living Room
 
Look how those beautiful floors really stand out! This paint color is neutral yet warm and cozy feeling. It also leaves the fire place as the focal point instead of focusing on the walls if they were a bolder or more taste specific color.
 
Office Paint
PW8603714 - Sitting Room
 
Now I would like to work in this office! It is stately yet filled with light. The furniture is staged to show the space well and it is uncluttered which helps the room be remembered!
 
We are proud of our client’s choice in paint and great staging that brings out the features of the home instead of hiding them behind too bold or dark paint.
