- Brown can create a cozy, traditional aesthetic but should be
used intentionally to avoid blending into the background.
- Incorporating even a small amount of black into a room can
provide context and coherence to the overall design.
- Adding textiles like drapes and area rugs can quickly warm up a
space without the need for painting.
