Are you stuck in an all-beige world?

If you walk through any Kuwaiti house, you will notice that most of the walls (if not all) are in either beige or shades of beige (rosey beige, greenish beige, yellowish beige, light brown, camel, tan, sand, biscuit, cream...etc.)

I know that beige is a neutral color and i know that it combines the warmth of brown and the coolness of white; HOWEVER, what people don't understand is that too much beige can be really dull and boring! So why don't we add more color to our lives than the boring beige that we surround ourselves with?!

My advice: Color can make a room look larger, smaller, warmer or cooler. When choosing a color for a room, it is important to take into consideration the size of the room and the amount of natural light that goes into it. You should also take into consideration the mood that you want the room to reflect... do you want it to be serene and peaceful or bright and fun?

But with so many color choices, picking just the right color can be really hard. Better Homes and Gardens offers a cool online tool where you can choose colors and patterns to walls, furniture and flooring which gives you an overview of what your room would look like!
