Getting it Right with Beautiful Brights - Barbara Jacobs Color and Design

<back to Barbara Jacobs main page

"Neutral" style color palettes are beautiful. No doubt about it. Soothing, practical, safe...and they can even be dramatic. "Buyers love it," and of course those colors tend to be easy to furnish around. But here's a thought: think of it as "food." To be clear, I am not advocating a chaos of wildly colorful environments that you can't live in or with. In fact, bright colors definitely do have a place in sophisticated interiors.

Now that we have that bit out of the way, I wanted to share my more detailed thoughts about feeling confident and free in experimenting in finding the very best colors that you Will love to live In--and With.

My collections include a variety of selected hues from all color families. Current collections you can get samples for right now include various Historic palettes in light, medium, and dark colors (use them for any house period), bedroom, and more. The featured colors are all from either Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams, or Farrow & Ball. You might find, at a glance, that some colors seem similar. But, when you see the actual samples on various areas of the walls and ceilings, in different lighting times of day and evening, natural or artificial light sources, you will notice the differences.

Enjoy your colorful journey. See this blog post for more info and a few examples.
