Minty Fresh Decor That Gets You Ready For Summer

If you haven’t noticed by now, people are fawning over the refreshing coolness of the color mint. It’s everywhere! Back when pastel colors were a popular choice for decor, mint barely touched the tip of the iceberg. But now, this one-hit wonder has captured the attention of fashion artists and interior designers alike. This color can help boost home energy as well!

How to Incorporate the Color at Home?

For starters, the living room would be a prime location to welcome this new shade of color. Mint is delicate enough to create a romantic setting, but it is also vibrant enough to remove the dullness from monochromatic rooms.

When you want to create a contemporary scene at home, be sure to consider mint-colored walls, as they offer an interesting interplay of visually stimulating details when contrasted with other solid colors.

While most people enjoy complementing mint walls with white frames, black accents can enhance a mint-themed room with a modern twist. Because black distinctly grasps a stronger hold of interiors, mint-colored walls or doors can liven up the room by adding a burst of color. The bathroom above is a good example of how mint and black can be used flawlessly together.

Mint Green Walls

As much as I would love to see mint green walls in everyone’s home, I must admit that this color is often reserved for girls who are more in tune with their creative side. Sorry guys, looks like you may prefer a shade that’s more robust!

Mint green walls do not necessarily need to be saturated with color; instead they can take a more subtle direction and be drawn to the white side of the color wheel. The living room above is a good example of how lighter shades of mint can be just as beautiful and elegant. Don’t you think this mint theme is extremely easy on the eyes?
