Decorating with accent colors is a design tactic that takes little effort but yields a dramatic transformation. Whether your walls are plain white or rich in bold color, choosing décor pieces in colors that compliment (ACCENTuate) your room color is crucial in order to give your design direction and depth.

So, how do you choose accent colors that coordinate with your paint? You could grab a color wheel and take a scientific approach to decorating your home, but I recommend getting inspired instead.

Below you’ll find inspirational interior design photos featuring wall and accent decor color combinations. You should use this guide to help you decide which accent colors and décor items you would like for your space.

Decorating a red room with accent colors can be tricky. To me, the color red IS the ultimate accent color. It’s bold and vibrant and stands out by itself. However white and/or black decor accessories in a red room can help break up the red and add style. A red room is just a red room, but a red room with black accent decorations like long drapes, picture frames and pillows is a SEXY room. White accent decor items in a red room make the space more open and inviting.
