Designing Kids Rooms Using the Color Wheel: Monochromatic Scheme

In two previous posts, we explored using complimentary and analogous color schemes as inspiration when designing kids rooms.

Another color tool  to use is called a monochromatic scheme. In this scheme, one color is used predominantly, but that color can vary in "tone". "Tone" is the amount of black or white that is added to a basic hue. Basically, it is how dark or light a color is. 

Some examples:

Take a look at the following rooms to see how ONE color is used to create great spaces for kids:

( Southern Living )

Grey.

(Paint a Lifestyle)

Red.

(Modecodeign)

Oatmeal.

(Serena and Lily)

Green.

NO matter what color scheme you decide to use for designing your child's room, make sure that it is a space that reflects your child's imagination and is a place they love to be!
