The Importance of Shade Colors in Interior Design
We love the look of white shades and other neutral tones in interior design, but neutral tones are not the only colors a room needs to look its best. The importance of color in interior design is more vital than you may think. The right pop of color can completely transform the aesthetic of a space—and a great way to add color is through aesthetic window coverings and other accents.
At Blind & Shutter Gallery, we offer a wide variety of shades, blinds, and shutters from Hunter Douglas. From gorgeous fall curtains to cellular honeycomb shades in colors from those soothing neutrals to bold pops of color, we have the perfect fit for your windows and doors when you work with our expert design team—we have over 20 years of experience in serving the community and helping homes and businesses achieve their perfect interior design style.
The Power of Color
Every interior design expert will tell you that the colors you choose will directly affect the mood of a space. Bright hues like warm reds and yellows are energizing, while cool blues and green shades are restful and relaxing. Color can also affect the perception of size. Light shades make a small rooms feel much larger and a darker hue can make a spacious area feel more cozy.
We recommend keeping the walls neutral—it’s wise to start with a neutral foundation if you’re not ready to commit to a colorful interior. Neutral doesn’t have to mean white, beige, or black. Shades of cream, gray, and even muted gray-tinged blues can be a great neutral canvas. A perk to working with a neutral base is that it’s effortless to change out your accessories, décor, and window coverings to transform the room's vibe.
Colors that Speak to the Seasons
In sunny Florida, we don’t see the same sort of wide seasonal variance as many parts of the country—though there is a definite difference between a St. Petersburg summer and winter! If you want your window treatments to coordinate with the season, you’ll want to think of color and weight when you choose fall curtains or shades. When decorating your Florida home, the good news is that our fall colors are more than red, yellow, orange, and brown. You’ll often see flashes of jewel tones, like muted sage, deep plums, tangy tangerines, and navy blue, in our autumnal color schemes.
Insulating Window Treatments
No matter the season, keeping inside air in and outside air out is an important part of a comfortable Florida home. Why not do it in style with Hunter Douglas honeycomb shades in colors and over 100 fabric options with the bonus of insulation and a significant amount of texture. Cellular shades also help reduce exterior sound, making your home more peaceful. Plus, these shades have room darkening benefits—no more waking up to an early sunrise when you’d rather be sleeping in. Choose from three pleat sizes to perfectly suit windows of all shapes and sizes.
Other Places to Work in Color and Texture
Alustra® Woven Textures® Roller Shades are another excellent option for texture and natural warmth in a space. Roller shades have a sleek aesthetic and easy operation. The Alustra® Woven Textures® collection of fabrics is thoughtfully curated to include unique color and material combinations from around the globe.
Your windows aren’t the only place to incorporate gorgeous colors in an area.
- Consider adding a vibrant area rug or chunky knit throw in the same tone as your new shades. Throws and rugs help create texture and add intriguing hues to your space.
- Other decorative accents, such as vases or artwork, are also great ways to bring color to your interior design.
- Plants and foliage are another fantastic avenue to color in interior design. Try incorporating mums and pumpkins into your decor to keep things looking authentically autumn.
