It’s the #1 question our interior design team in the Pittsburgh metro area has been getting from clients lately: How can I add more color to my home?

For Ethan Allen’s interior designers, the journey starts with three questions, and the first is what color do you like? Choose a color that’s always inspired good feelings in you or pick something that’s on trend. We’re currently seeing a lot of warm, earthy tones like terracotta, emerald, and aubergine—but as you see here, we have a soft spot for blue.

Second, what’s your comfort level with color? If you’re taking your first steps out of neutral territory, you may prefer to introduce small pops of color in your pillows, throws, artwork, or accents choices:

If you’re not in the mood to get out your paint roller but still want to make a bold splash, have a piece of upholstery tailored in a standout fabric or leather.

If you really want to shake things up, opt for a statement-making wallpaper.

When helping clients choose colors, our interior designers will often create moodboards, pulling together paint chips, fabrics and leathers, and even finish chips or small accents to create a cohesive vision.

To help you make color statements with confidence, we create 3D room plans that help you preview your designer’s vision for your home.

Our designers can recommend paint colors or wallpapers, help you introduce color through custom furniture and window treatments, and give suggestions for bedding, rugs, and other accents.
