Orange - it is!! (2 comments)

View Slideshow
My DIY project this week is to paint one of the walls in our living room Orange :) It was relatively easy for us to zero down on this color as we talked wistfully about it all last year. We got our shade from home depot last night and are ready to embark on our first painting journey. All the images in this ideabook helped and continue to help us define the shade and the wall itself.
The orange is brightened by the lights in this modern kitchen and add a lot of pop to the place.

Orange wall paper in the bedroom - bold! But matched with traditional accent pieces, it fits right in.

Orange with blue - high contrast.

I like the orange shelving system. It adds layers of color in the kitchen.

This brick orange wall could use a a few additions but add color to the otherwise light room.

Just the thin strip of orange wall pulls focus onto the bookshelf.

The orange panels serve as an alternative to wall art in this beige room.

Is it entirely colored or just those walls?

I like the bright orange and hope to mimic it.

Not paint but a very well done alternative. The bright colors make this room a lot of fun.

I love orange! One of my kitchen's corners is Orange and I'm thinking of painting one of the walls in the kids bedroom...
Hope that you'll post your living room photos!

Thanks for using a couple of my photos. When I was working with my client on this particular room, I came up with the idea of Autumn colours and for the two alcoves I used a Ralph Lauren "suede" paint effect, using burnt orange.... during different times of the day the colour changes.... I highly recommend it. Good luck with your project.
