So, we have curated some homey colour palettes for you to take into consideration for your interior design and decorations of your home.

If white is not your cup of tea, choose a light neutral colour such as grey which will make your home brighter and look more spacious. Choose paints or furniture under the same colour range but different shades to make it look less plain. A lighter colour palette will also help make your house look less cluttered which will in turn put you in a better mood.

Brown is one of the most popular choices when it comes to home decor not without reason! If you choose the right shades, it will make your home look elegant while still retaining a cosy vibe. Once again, choose paints or furniture under the same colour range but different shades.

Grey might be a little too dull for some people's liking but since it's a good colour choice for homes, you could add an accent colour that is slightly brighter to spruce up the space. Take inspiration from the image above where green is used and add in plants, decorations or furniture in green.

Grey, brown and green will work equally well together too as there will be light and dark colours to create contrast while still keeping your home cosy and relaxing.

#5 Grey + blue + brown

How about adding some blue to your home? Choose a dusty blue or light blue colour to keep your home looking bright and cheery. Paint colours that are too dark will make your home appear smaller so avoid choosing dark colours. However, you could add a piece of furniture in dark grey like the image above.

Pairing brown and grey, two of the colours mentioned the most in this article, is a great choice too. Both of these neutral colours are visually appealing and will let you incorporate any pattern, texture, decoration or furniture without creating any clutter.
