Neutral colors are deceiving. They look as if they're easy to style a room with, but they really aren't. Neutral colored pillows are tricky decorations, but if done well, can make a room look beautiful. It just depends on how you want your room to look. Do you want it to look fresh? Classy? Simple? Cozy? With the right pillows and furniture, you'll have your dream room in no time.
Simply put, neutral tones are usually those colours that give either a warm or cool vibe. They almost always go with other "stronger" colors.
To design a room with pillows of this tone, you first need to set your goal. What kind of room do you want to create? When using neutral pillows, it is best to know what your purpose is.
If you want to make a simple room with neutral pillows, then no problem. That might be the easiest design task you could ever encounter. You simply need to put together pillows of the same tone but with varying designs (such as the picture on the right). This will create a very posh look, that can be used for indoor and outdoor spaces.
Neutral toned pillows are great for neutralizing bright rooms, too. If you have a yellow couch and orange pillows, it would be ideal to neutralize the colors by adding a couple of neutral pillows. Just imagine staring at the sun. You'll want to cover your eyes with something, right? The neutral toned pillows will do the trick. It's also like having a dish that is too salty; you need something to make it less salty. It's all about the balance of the colors.
In the end, it is all up to how you want the room to look and feel like. Neutral colors can become your best friend if you know the basics. Once you've learned them, piecing together a room will not be much of a struggle anymore.
