Making Interior Spaces Dramatic with Paint
Last updated on August 24th, 2022
If a life without drama leaves you wanting, seek no further. By combining bolder shades with their more neutral counterparts, you can effortlessly create a space high on impact.
When you want a room that wows, dare to design boldly. Create striking contrasts. Showcase scale in grandiose proportions. And don’t forget an extravagant application of eye-catching color. In fact, paint is among the easiest and quickest ways to inject a strong dose of charisma into any space. Let Sherwin-Williams show you how.

Secret Intrigue
Don’t be afraid of the dark—particularly in small rooms. The stealthy ambiance established by shrouding spaces in deep tones can feel surprisingly inviting. Consider using a range of colors from the same family to create contrast and accentuate architectural details.
