This, after all, is what will make the colours well and truly POP!<\/h3>\n<p>For this style, we\u2019re not against layering colour over colour, as it won\u2019t have the same effect. We\u2019re looking for contrast, so those boring white walls that fill your home are the perfect backdrop for your new colour journey.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where to begin<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Start with a clean palette by de-cluttering and simplifying the space, and then slowly introduce the desired \u2018pops\u2019 one by one. Choose a larger piece first \u2014 an armchair or an artwork \u2014 and then layer other items around it. It\u2019s important not to \u2018over clutter\u2019, let the largest \u2018pop\u2019 have a moment to shine. It always helps to stand back and assess as you add more items in, and if something is detracting from the main event, it needs to go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Contrast is everything<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When deciding on your bold-coloured statement piece, it\u2019s important not to be shy. Find the brightest and most out-there colour you can tolerate, and pop it in pride of place, in a spot that has no other colour or tone like it around. A bright red side table against a white couch, or a bold artwork up on a big white white wall, for example. We\u2019re not going for tonal, we\u2019re going for main character energy!<\/p>\n<p><strong>For beginners<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If the idea of committing to a big, bright red armchair scares you, or you\u2019re not in the market for a new artwork, start small by injecting little pops of colour into your home. Maybe it\u2019s a vase, a cushion or a little side lamp to break up your beige room. Pop these smaller items around your home until you start to get a feel for living with bolder colour choices, and then you can go bigger and brighter!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colour choice<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Keep the colours primary. Reds, yellow, blues and greens are perfect. For this effect, we want to steer clear of subdued colours or neutrals and instead go bold, or go home!<\/p>\n<p><em>Additional moodboard credits: (From left) <a href=\"https:\/\/brunswickstreetgallery.com.au\/products\/tali-steer-flakes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Art by Tali Steer<\/a> from Brunswick Street Gallery. <a href=\"https:\/\/thedesignfiles.wpenginepowered.com\/directory\/product\/arum-portable-lamp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Arum portable lamp<\/a> from Trit House. <a href=\"https:\/\/pepite.com.au\/collections\/everything\/products\/tatts-rip-current-sculpture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rip Current sculpture by Tatts<\/a> from P\u00e9pite.<a href=\"https:\/\/brunswickstreetgallery.com.au\/products\/aileen-corbett-clare\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Glazed stoneware by Aileen Corbett<\/a> from Brunswick Street Gallery. <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.craft.org.au\/collections\/ceramic-vases\/products\/tom-summers-goodhue-vase\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Goodhue vase in green by Tom Summers<\/a> from Craft Victoria. <a href=\"https:\/\/pepite.com.au\/collections\/ceramics\/products\/angela-hayes-light-and-dark-vessel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Light and Dark vessel<\/a> by Angela Hayes from P\u00e9pite. <a href=\"https:\/\/pepite.com.au\/collections\/everything\/products\/connie-augoustinos-large-bowl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Large bowl by Connie Augoustinos<\/a> from P\u00e9pite.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><i data-stringify-type=\"italic\">Want to see more?
