Styling a room with neutral colors such as gray, white and shades of beige is a major trend in home decorating. This popular design aesthetic is clean, sophisticated and works in almost every home. The push to go neutral, however, can considerably drain the overall life out of a room. Pops of color that are carefully selected and dispersed throughout a room can enhance the personality and interest of the space. A room with neutral paint and furniture offers a flexible base for switching up your accessories and color choices whenever you desire. Neutral spaces do not have to be boring and pops of color do not always have to overpower a room. Here are some tips for bringing "life" back to your living space.
