High contrast interiors are timeless, create depth and interest as well as create balance. Using any of the elements of design, a skilled designer can create a dynamic composition through the use of contrast. As a principle of art, contrast refers to the arrangement of opposite elements and effects. For example, light and dark colors, smooth and rough textures, large and small shapes. Contrast can be used to create variety, visual interest, and drama in interior design.
High contrast decorating can be so dramatic and breath taking! Creating just the right balance of light and airy, with bold and moody is an easy way to add immediate impact and create a space that is memorable.
We asked the talented Amy Carman to offer her expert advice for creating a bold space that feels both inviting and dramatic.
