Selecting the right color palette for wallpaper and decorative plaster is a crucial part of designing a space that reflects your taste, lifestyle, and desired atmosphere. The right color decisions can elevate a room, enhance its function, and create emotional comfort. Below, we reveal the key secrets to choosing colors like a true design professional.
Color affects mood, space perception, and style cohesion. Soft, light tones can open up a room, while rich, dark colors create intimacy and drama. Accent hues can emphasize architectural features, while harmonious tones between wallpaper and decorative plaster ensure a seamless visual flow.
For example, our article on Accent Wall Ideas for Denver Metro Area Homes shows how bold or subtle color choices shape perception.
Colors evoke emotions. Here’s a basic breakdown:
Blues and greens: calm and serene
Yellows and oranges: warm and energetic
Grays and neutrals: sophisticated and balanced
Deep tones like navy or charcoal: grounding and dramatic
In Colorado’s naturally lit homes, it’s also crucial to consider how sunlight shifts throughout the day. Learn more in our post on Tips for Choosing Lighting.
If you’re combining wallpaper with decorative plaster, coordination is essential. You can:
Match tones for subtle harmony (e.g., taupe wallpaper + warm beige plaster)
Create contrast (e.g., deep green plaster with light botanical wallpaper)
Use texture to bridge gaps—a plaster with metallic shimmer pairs beautifully with matte wallpaper.
