Painted the living room foyer and hall a sort of butternut yellow. Should the rest of the house be same color

Question

Starting on the Kitchen and Dining Room now. Are most people painting all rooms the same color and just using different color accents or do most people like each room to be a different color?

Answer 1

thats the beauty of decorating

you are NOT trying to be like everyone else you are supposed to be expressing yourself

so if you want all the same color try it if you prefer accents go for it

but either way have fun with it

Answer 2

Well depending how you decorate I would go with some accents walls in different rooms. For example if you have a butternut yellow you could accent with a dark red or a deep green.. Good luck!!

Answer 3

1] each bedroom can be totally different because they are private spaces
2] public rooms are living, dining, hall, and downstairs bath.
They usually have some color in common, but that could be floors, walls, furniture, windows, flower arrangements. You could put some yellow flowers in the LR, and yellow candles in DR.
3] you shouldn't match everything, but should repeat colors in a flow from room to room.
If you do yellow accessories in LR/DR; then use green from LR to DR, and peach from DR to kitchen, for instance.

Answer 4

I painted my living room and dining room including the ceilings lemon yellow and I love it. It is really bright and cheery. I say if you like it do it. Why worry about what others think?

Answer 5

Deep pink almost red i think it would look nice with gold paint all ready. we have that color in are house and it look realy nice with warm colors!!! Its a fun color. a good color to relax in. the room we have painted that color is my favorite room. if you dont like that color you should check out the enviormentall colors they wont mke your house smell bad after paiting. !hope i could helped 8*)

Answer 6

If it makes you happy, do it.

(About the only color that is painted in each and every room is the color white.)

Answer 7

each room can be treated individually, same goes with carpets and flooring.... now days anything goes
