Don't Lose the Charm, Part 2

Transcript:

If you're living in an older house--or really ANY home with a distinctive architectural style--and you're thinking about making some renovations . . . Here are some things to keep in mind to help you make sure you don't inadvertently cover over some of that inherent charm. I'm Dan Hansen and this is a minute at RepcoLite Paints sponsored by Benjamin Moore.

And of course we're going to start with color. Paint color has a huge impact on the atmosphere we create in a space. And that atmosphere can work against the style and charm of your space if you're not careful.

If you're struggling to nail down colors, remember that neutral or classic color palettes usually have more flexibility across different styles. Soft grays, whites, and beiges, for example, can work in both modern and traditional settings. If you're looking for resources, stop out at any RepcoLite and take a look at Benjamin Moore's Williamsburg Color collection and their Historical color collection. And by all means . . . let us help! We have color experts at each location who can help you make the right choices for your space! We'll keep going with this tomorrow. I'm Dan Hansen and that's a minute at RepcoLite.
