1. Neutral Foundations with Pops of Contrast

Why It Works:
Neutral colors like white, cream, beige, and gray create a calm base, while bold accents—black, navy, or jewel tones—add depth and personality.

How to Style It:

  • Start with a neutral sofa and rug.
  • Add contrast with black metal frames, bold accent chairs, or a statement wall.
  • Use accessories like throw pillows and art to layer color.

Pro Tip: Choose one or two contrast shades so the palette feels cohesive rather than chaotic.
