Virtual Decorator | Creating a Moodboard | Art Deco Inspired



A common question I get from clients looking to select a colour scheme is: "How do I know the colours will go well together?"  My two answers are "look to nature" or "think of your favourite piece of art". Chances are, you're going to discover a perfectly harmonious colour scheme.

For this moodboard, I chose this Art deco-era Vogue magazine cover as inspiration for a living room design.

Edmonton Interior Decorator | Colour Trend: Black &Yellow | Honey Bee-Beautiful

Black and Yellow isn't just a hit song by rapper, Wiz Khalifa, it's also an energetic, high contrast colour combination for your home. When I think of black and yellow, I think of the bustling of NYC yellow taxis, cheerful sunflowers and the buzz of honey bees.

According to the experts, yellow is intellectually stimulating. It's great for conversation and also memory recall.

Just like the rush of NYC, black and yellow isn't for the timid. Yellow is tart and refreshing. It will stimulate your senses. It's a great way to get the energy back into your home. So, will you refresh your room with a twist of lemon?
