Grey, beige and white dominate the nation's homes but DIY SOS Interior designer Sophie Robinson reveals how to escape 'greige' and create a colourful oasis in any room in your home
Grey has had its day, according to interior designer and TV presenter Sophie Robinson, and with people spending more time than ever at home since lockdown, she says "people now understand how their interior space can affect their mood."
"The Sarah Beeny people of the world have conditioned people into ‘don't put your personality on your property, it will only devalue it, paint it beige.’ Say it with paint A fresh coat of paint is undoubtedly the way to give a room the biggest transformation for the least amount of money. Splashing out with a new hue across all the walls is thrilling, but don’t overlook the details. Using a small tin of paint to pick out window frames in a vibrant shade, or give a lick of fresh colour to a tired piece of furniture, is another quick and easy way to instantly update a space.
Choose accessories that make a splash You don’t have to drench all the walls in bold choices to get a positive effect. Adding in some colourful cushions, rolling out an eye-catching new rug, or switching beige lampshades for brighter ones are effective ways to punctuate your room with colour. Better still, you can do this slowly over time, so you can enjoy collecting your favourite colourful pieces.
