The crowning glory of your home

We all have one place in our home that’s our absolute favourite - be it a particular room, a specific wall. With thanks to Crown, we can all have that one special place in our home - read on to find out how.

Living room

I don’t know about you, by my favourite room at home has to be the living room, because it’s where life happens the most.

The record player is there, the TV too, and plenty of comfy, cushioned sofas for all, but you know what would make it even better? 

A fresh coat of paint.

At the moment, my living room is covered in Dulux’s Polished Pebble, which was very on trend pre-pandemic, but now, homes are craving warmer colours, bolder colours and darker colours that were once considered wild.

To bring life into your living room, you should try Crafted Luxurious Flat Matt Emulsion in Ceramic Kiln.

With its rich and warm tones, the depth of Ceramic Kiln’s colour can have a grounding and calming effect on an interior, making your living room the go-to place for relaxing, entertaining and all inbetween.

If like me, you can’t shake the grey, why not add a little bit of green into the mix? 

It will keep your room feeling earthy, as well as provide those laid-back, chic vibes from the grey.

Ivy Grey is the perfect shade for this!

It lends itself well to having both light and bright accessories around the room to offset the depth of colour, truly allowing you to revamp your home.

If painting the entire room one colour isn’t something you’re into, a feature wall covered in 

Crown’s Elle Decoration Flat Matt will do just the trick.

Feature Wall

A feature wall is just that - a feature.

It can impact everything from how the space looks and how it feels whilst loudly declaring that this is your home, your design and your style whilst being a visual focus point. 

A room with all the walls decorated in one colour or pattern, whilst being a contrast, can pull an entire room together, similarly, by painting one wall and giving it a different, bolder texture or colour, you can change the mood and personality of a room with just one action.

One colour that immediately comes to mind this year when we’re thinking about feature walls is emerald green.

Crown’s Elle Decoration Flat Matt in Exotic is so universal that it lends itself well to being a feature in living rooms, bedrooms or even the kitchen. 

If making them green with envy isn’t for you, why not go with red?
