White is the perfect colour to use when revitalising a room, according to a number of designers. Speaking to Melissa Rayworth of the Associated Press, asserted that white is a colour trick that designers use to modernise a number of things, such as traditional bedroom furniture or scuffed wooden floors.
"Their imperfections are transformed into appealing texture," he continued. Taniya Nayak, host of HGTV''s Destination Design and $100 Half Day Design, said that spray-painting picture frames and mirrors instantly gives them a fresh and modern look.
She explained that the backdrop of a white floor and walls makes bedroom furniture, window treatments and accessories stand out wonderfully, while it can also feel very traditional when used with more ornate pieces. Ms Nayak concluded: "White can also kind of work as a mediator.
"Just like bringing in a marriage counsellor, white will work as a mediator between soft and loud colours. You can use it to work as a bridge between two colours." In a recent report for the Montreal Gazette, Shauna Hardy said that even by just buying a different lampshade, those redecorating their home should always consider the impact of good lighting.
