Create a Look

Mauve is an excellent addition to purple due to its versatility and ability to become one when they are paired together. Pairing these two hues will add a purple tint throughout the space that is classic and well-rounded.

We love the idea of creating a look with the color purple instead of simply adding it simultaneously into the space. Creating a look will allow the hues of purple to become the main staple of the space. Use hues of lavender, and/or lilac and pair them with shades of mauve. Mauve is a beautiful color that has a gray undertone when it is paired with purple it shifts in color a bit and offers a lilac undertone.

Daring Purple Walls

An accent wall works well in any area of a home, including the kitchen. The beauty of this is when you have an open floor plan as part of your kitchen you have the advantage of having the purple accent wall be displayed throughout the space.

Instead of having one purple sofa consider having two. Having two sofa’s combined together will make a bigger impact especially when it is paired with neutrals and a hint of bright pink.

A purple sofa? Yes, please. Pair your purple sofa with other colorful bits to create a grounding effect throughout. Additionally, there is the beauty of creating a summery vibe that can be interchanged for the cooler months by simply changing your color scheme a bit.

Periwinkle

We love the idea of pairing a fun color such a periwinkle with a daring shade such as red. The beauty of using these shades together is that they will compliment each other in the most subtle form. Use darker wood in the area to allow the lighter hues to stand out on their own.

Do not miss out on having the ability to incorporate periwinkle into your décor, it’s the perfect in-between shade, it’s not quite purple but it’s not blue either. Its undertones are a bit more blue and lavender depending on which shades the color is paired with. For a blue undertone use hues of pastel blues and for a purple undertone pair with shades of dark purple.

Pair with Silver

Pairing multiple shades of purple with bits of silver throughout the space create an elegant charming touch. This color combination works exceptionally well in the dining room due to its ability to look crisp and clean regardless of the amount of pattern you may contemplate using.

Silver is perfect for creating a contrast between the different shades of purple you may use, it will bring forth a softness to the shade that is seamless.

Go Glossy

They’re trendy, fun and uncommon which makes glossy cabinets a top favorite for many homeowners who want to create a contemporary aesthetics in their kitchen. A glossy finish works well in a neutral room that has additional matte elements, this will create a contrast between the two.

Instead of going full matte go glossy, especially in the kitchen. Glossy kitchen cabinets have become a huge trend which is why they work so well when they are paired in the kitchen. Pair with marble to bring a classic touch to this trendy new take on kitchen counters.

The idea of mixing and matching different shades of purple works well because of how bold and enchanting the hues can be when they are worked in seamlessly. Pair with neutrals and/or metals to allow the colors to make sense without taking away from the true essence of the color.

Take a few hues of purple and mix and match them throughout the room. The different shades add a unique twist while still complimenting each other. They create a seamless look that flows throughout the space. Pair darker hues of purple with soft lilacs and lavenders for the perfect touch.

Wallpaper

Add a purple wallpaper with some sort of pattern for the perfect outcome. You want the pattern to add a bold touch into the area without taking away from your current decor. You may want to consider using a lighter hue for the wallpaper and adding bolder hues throughout the space.

Go for a purple wallpaper that offers some sort of texture or color combination. Doing so brings a brightening effect that will still bring color and charm to the area.
