We’re always trying to add color to our home. Often, we
might have a place that looks killer, but when it comes to the walls, you might
feel that it’s missing something. Well, the idea of incorporating faux stone
panels and a half painted wall is always one option that you might have for
your home. There are lots of great things you can do with this, and this
article will go over how a half-painted wall is a simple, yet effective
solution for your home.
The cool thing about these half painted walls it that you
get the option of higher or lower ceilings, for example, putting some fauxstone panels towards the top and painting it a brighter color will give your
home the illusion of a lower ceiling, or you can simply paint a darker color.
To make it a higher ceiling, put the faux stone panels or the color that you
want to use to darken it at the lower end of the wall and the higher color up,
because it’ll allow your eye to draw up to the other side of the room. This is good for the times when you need to
make low walls look higher, but also to make high ceilings not look as heavy
and bold, and it also create a more intimate setting if you lower the wells as
well.
Then there is the subtlety and the contrast of this. If you’re going to do a half wall, you’ll
need to figure out how bold or subtle you want the look to be. The key to painting is to add some color to your
space without making it too much. When you’re looking to do this sort of
painting, you should pick two colors that are in the same family, and by then, the
walls that are subdued will indeed look much more sophisticated and a lot
softer, and it won’t overpower the room.
However, if you really want to make the home pop and create
a showstopper, you still can create this contrast by taking your room and
putting two contrasting bold shades in there in order to help with color
blocking. Really, whatever sort of
direction that you take with this will allow you to create the right sort of
room that you’re looking for, and the right kind of place you feel that you
need.
When you’re painting a room and wanting to really make it
the best that it can be, try painting a half wall. You don’t have to do all of
the rooms, but even n accent wall is one way to do this, and if you try this
sort of thing, you can create a space that is not only a lot better, but it
feels a whole lot calmer, and you’ll be able to add some dimension and some
visual interest to the room that you’re creating and working with too.
