Energising & Refreshing

Colour Blocking in Spaces

Colour blocking is a vibrant and dynamic technique that involves combining contrasting colours in different areas of your home. When you apply bold and energising hues, colour blocking can bring a refreshing and invigorating mood to your living spaces. This method allows you to experiment with different colour combinations and create striking environments that energise your space. 

Different Energies Through Colour Blocking


Colour  blocking has the power to induce various energies and moods within different areas of your home. For example, in the living room, combining vibrant yellows and oranges with cooler blues can create a lively and stimulating atmosphere, perfect for socialising and entertaining. The proximity of warm and cool colours makes it visually enticing and infuses the space with energy. On the other hand, in the bedroom, a combination of serene greens and calming neutrals can promote a sense of tranquility and relaxation, providing a peaceful area for rest and rejuvenation. 

Applying Colour Blocking in Various Spaces


Colour blocking can be applied to various spaces within your home, whether indoors, outdoors, or even in smaller condo settings. In larger indoor spaces, consider using different colours on accent walls or dividing areas with contrasting hues to create distinct zones and add depth. For outdoors, colour blocking can be utilised in the form of vibrant plantings, outdoor furniture, or even painted fences or walls, infusing your outdoor space with energy and character. In condos or smaller homes, you can experiment with colour blocking through furniture, curtains, or wall art, making a bold statement in a more compact space. Colour blocking is a versatile and exciting technique that can bring a refreshing vibe to your home. Embrace the power of colour and experiment with colour blocking to create aesthetically pleasing and stunning environments that energise and uplift your home.
