These bright colors play well with any décor as they transition you from the hectic outside world into the warmth and comfort of your home. Have a little bit of fun with this small space and breathe new life into it with an unexpected hit of color. These colors might be a bit much if you put them in a larger space, but in a small foyer, they provide the perfect amount of punch and personality. A spicy tomato red, summery coral, or rich, peacock blue are all great colors for your foyer. If you just love color, don’t be afraid to go with a bold pop of it in your foyer. For those matching wall color with wood floors the best shade will depend on the type of wood and its color. It is still a neutral but gives your space a little bit more depth and a sophisticated edge. Give your neutral some life! A gorgeous, light grey, or greige (grey and beige combined) like the low clouds of a romantic winter snow, makes your foyer look light and fresh and pairs well with both light and dark furniture.įor more drama, use a deeper grey, like the dark clouds of a summer thunderstorm. Don’t just leave the builder-grade paint on the wall. They are easy to work with and are often what was already there so we just live with it, leaving the foyer as an afterthought, once we finish redecorating the kitchen or living room. We so often seen light, soft neutrals in foyers, and with good reason. Now that you have good lighting, we can talk paint color. If you don’t have any natural light, you want to make sure that your lighting is bright and welcoming.Īn overhead light might not provide enough light so consider wall sconces or tall, slim table lamps to provide enough light to check your lipstick in the mirror or easily see which pair of shoes is yours as you rush out the door in the morning.
But that isn’t the paint colors fault! It is the fault of adequate lighting.
Have you ever seen a dark foyer? It isn’t always the most welcoming.
