A pastel color accent wall is appealing but not so daring as strong, bold tones. Many of you will say that is too feminine, or too sweet but is a great alternative to a conventional white or other neutral color.

In fact, pastels are suitable for every living space and help to create a modern and stylish décor.

You need to know that pastels have a high proportion of brilliant white color. So, any nuance from the color palette mixed with simple white results in a pastel nuance. Simple like that.

Do you want a color harmony in your home interior? Amin two or three soft shades of the same color. Mixed different amounts of white with the same color. Or you can try the same amount of white with two close nuances. It is your choice.

They will look bright and fresh, not to mention they will have a positive effect on your mood.

One more thing. Pastels and soft colors can easily be combined with neutrals to create a fascinating décor. And also, with each other.
