White is classic, clean, and easy to decorate. If you like a modern space, go for a white decor scheme with occasional pops of color. White walls are perfect for displaying vibrant pieces of artwork. As a bonus, white walls make rooms appear larger and maximize natural light, so if you have a smaller space, white might be the answer.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\nCream has the same ability to enlarge a room, but it can also add warmth to your room that many prefer to a more clinical white. If you spend a lot of evening hours in your living room, you may enjoy the coziness of cream walls. Decorate cream as you would white with pops of color and your choice of artwork. Rest assured that cream walls are easy to maintain and do not make color change visible. If you smoke in the house or film your own YouTube cooking disaster shows, you will enjoy the forgiving nature of cream walls.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\nGive your house the royal treatment and add a posh splash of purple to your living space. Lilac is a great color for a living room that gets a lot of natural light. Try painting an accent wall for a subtle and refined splash of color. Or for a more cozy room, paint all the walls lilac and add white, cream, or grey furniture. Dark purple is the ultimate regal option for large rooms. Impress your guests by adding light wood furniture and hints of pink and cream or white.<\/p>\n
