Surprisingly you can mix several bright colors together and still create a calm and classic space. The bold abstract painting
“Small But Deadly” by
Erica Rukin, currently available at Aaron
Gallery near Dupont
Circle, inspired a bedroom
incorporating a few of the colors from the work but still
giving the space a sense of tranquility with style. This is achieved
by gathering items in the muted tones of the paintings, using
solid colors, and not including too many bold patterns.
