the case for colorThere’s no better way to create personality and panache in a home like color. The best part is how affordably you can do so by painting an entire room, or simply adding decor accents in eye-popping hues that can be changed on a whim.

Almost 50 percent of homeowners use paint to improve or update their property.

Painting one wall in a bold accent color is always a good compromise if you’re not sure how much color you can handle. Just remember, if you’re not looking long term then a dark color can be extra work to paint over. In that case, a neutral color throughout is practical. Eggshell is not the requisite reliable either – there are wonderful shades of gray or taupe that complement everything. Paint can be an inexpensive alternative to replacing kitchen cabinetry or covering dated paneling.

Signature ColorsDesign experts are seeing richer palettes in 2015 with a global vibe. Look for more warm and organic colors, jewel tones, plus more contemporary pastels.

In addition to the walls, there are other surfaces can make or break the appearance of a home.

FloorsThose floors are made for walking (on) but that shouldn’t mean being treating like a doormat. If replacing floors isn’t an option, then give them new life with a good professional cleaning for carpets, or sand and refinish hardwoods.

There are striking new trends in flooring to consider, depending on taste, durability, and house style. Though not technically wood, bamboo is as hard as most woods and comes in a wide variety of color. Other popular flooring alternatives include cork, reclaimed wood, large format tiles, luxury vinyl

and cement. Porcelain tile in neutral colors is always a draw in the desert and warmer climates.

Cut-and-loop carpet is gaining ground for its sculpted texture and multi-tonal designs. Clean and green is the goal for homeowners with children, pets, and environmental concerns.

CountersNothing ages a kitchen or bathroom more than dated laminate surfaces. There is a diversity of materials and price ranges that will instantly update these rooms.

Engineered quartz is edging out the long-favored granite for beauty and practicality. It is stain, heat and scratch resistant and doesn’t need to be sealed like natural stone. Quartz is also more eco-friendly than granite. Butcher block in the kitchen is a great looking and affordable alternative.

Guilford Green – “a neutral that’s natural” – is Benjamin Moore’s color of the year for 2015.

Current trends according to House Beautiful:

• Greek & Mediterranean Blue

• Pastels with Bursts of Neon

• Soft Gray

• Olive Green

Wallpaper is making a big comeback in home design, but it’s definitely not your grandmother’s wall covering.

Stunning floor covering can create the foundation for a fabulous room.

• Stainless steel complements all colors for an urban vibe.

• Concrete is energy efficient and can be custom stained.

• Recycled counters embrace the sustainable movement.

• Marble with subtle gray veining exudes luxury.

• Glass is a sleek and clean, albeit pricier, choice.

• Tile is an affordable DIY option for kitchen or bath, both counters and backsplashes.
