Deciding on a colour scheme for your home may be an overwhelming process, as there are so many colours and combinations to choose from. Still, it doesn't have to be too much of a chore if taken one step at a time. Here are some stunning colour schemes that may offer a stroke of inspiration.

1. Bohemian Chic


Give your home a free-spirited feel with an eclectic mix of colours. From the pale pastel coloured walls, textured wall decor, as well as the understated patterned couch that is the central feature of the room, the elements complement each other perfectly.

2. Loud and Proud


Channel the Americanophile in you by going for a red and white combination that is reminiscent of a retro diner you would see in the USA. Radiant and bold colours such as these will make the kitchen stand out. Red is also believed to be associated with hunger (which is reasonably apt).

3. Clean and Green


Incorporate elements inspired by nature into your colour scheme. Keep the wall colours simple, opt for light brown cabinets, dark brown ceiling fixtures, and round it off with a green carpet. Softer hues invoke calming and peaceful vibes throughout the home.

4. Opulence At Its Finest


To achieve an impactful upscale look, pick colours that are usually associated with luxury. In this scheme, gold is the featured colour as it is linked to wealth and privilege. The hue is then enhanced yet balanced by traditional shades like white, black, and brown.

5. Pop Of Colour


Colour schemes must usually be connected to or inspired by the theme of a house. The industrial theme is augmented by rustic white and grey colours. A bright yellow couch cuts through the monotony of the room, thereby lifting the overall mood.

6. Warm Energy


This warm colour scheme gives a modern twist to earthy colours. Orange is a hue that may not be favoured by everyone, but when paired with red and beige accents in this dining area, it works wonderfully. Along with the trusted dark brown shade, autumn vibes are given off.

7. One To Rule Them All


Picking a similar neutral colour for the walls and furniture will ensure cohesiveness and harmony throughout the home. Furthermore, it makes decorating easier as almost every item will match with the existing shade! Sometimes, less is certainly more.

8. Light and Dark


Eccentric themes boast a variety of colours, textures, and decor that may not look like they can go together initially, but they do in the final design. It's a colour scheme to adopt when you want a design that is both unique and well-balanced.

9. Patterns On Top Of Patterns


Add a touch of whimsicality to the walls of your kitchen through incorporating patterned decorative tiles. This rich mix of patterns is eye-catching, prevents repetition and brings excitement to an otherwise plain colour scheme.

10. Silence and Sound


Green and brown contribute to the natural setting of the home, while red brings out character so that the large space doesn't end up being too subdued. These colours are known to complement each other, and creates a high amount of contrast.

11. Monochromatic Visuals


A good way to unify the rooms in your house is to go with a colour scheme which contains several different shades of a single colour. The shades are complementary, easy to design, and makes a lasting impression.
