Your personal color palette already exists. Embrace it.
When it comes to choosing color, it’s actually quite simple: trust your instincts. Your sense of color confidence comes from taking a close look at what colors you already gravitate towards – and love being surrounded by – then embracing the design possibilities they present.
Take a Fresh Look
What are the colors you live and breathe in your everyday life? Step into your closet and pull out the clothing that shares common hues and shades. Spread them out and observe your personal color inclination. Take this theory further by thinking back to other prominent colors in your life…cars, pets, tableware – there is no ‘wrong’ answer. Note the colors that move you emotionally.

Blend or Boast
Do you want to stand out? Or do you want to blend in? Think about your answer when it comes to establishing color schemes for your home. Go for the more subdued shades in the personal color palette you’ve developed if you prefer taking a more understated approach to design. If you want to go bolder, choose the more saturated hues from your personal color palette.
