Multicolor metallic mashup. This colorful contrast is like a candy shop of sweet sugars and bright foil wrappers. Bold black anchor points add weight to the aesthetic.

Amazing ombre. Colors melted together with airbrush edging culminate in a stunning ombre effect. This gorgeous feature wall is accentuated with a pink color-blocked doorway and a striking blue shelving unit.
Dominant art installations. Curious, quirky, and colorful, this mesmerizing art installation snakes around a skylight, down the wall and across the floor to become a unique rug.
Gallery life. Curate an explosion of color with an eclectic art wall. In this gallery-inspired living room, colorful paintwork makes its way down onto bespoke coffee tables.

Big and bold. Be it enormous works of art, a large and colorful sofa design, or a huge vibrant rug, oversized elements make a statement.
Another example of how large artwork can transform a simple space. Without these three commanding pieces of modern art, this living room would be a basic white box.
This color-blocked living room concept delivers a more subtle approach. The subtlety in background colors allows bolder pieces in the foreground to hold due attention.

Helped along by nature. Allow a green garden view to serve as a jumping off point for a colorful living room scheme. Contrast the vista with red and pink furniture.
Color-blocked wall paneling. Apply color-blocked paint effects over panel molding to achieve a 3D effect. In this example, the wall color transitions behind a piece of wall art to sharpen the look.
Bold balance. Eye-catching artwork receives balance from a multi-tonal blue couch arrangement here. Charcoal gray walls make a dark backdrop for the brighter elements.
