Choosing the Right Colours

When selecting interior paint colours for your Victorian home, it's essential to consider the architectural style and period features. Victorian homes often feature rich, deep colours that add warmth and depth to the space. Think jewel tones like emerald green, sapphire blue, and ruby red for a touch of opulence.

If you prefer a more subdued palette, opt for classic neutrals like creamy whites (Trigg), soft greys (Watermans Bay), and warm beiges (Cottesloe). These timeless hues complement the intricate mouldings and intricate woodwork typical of Victorian interiors while creating a sense of sophistication.

Embracing Heritage Colours

For those who want to stay true to the era, heritage colours are the way to go. These shades are inspired by historical palettes and are perfect for restoring Victorian homes to their former glory. Consider hues like a "Victorian Rose," in Mirri and "Edwardian Sage" like Quinn for an authentic touch.

Enhancing Period Features

One of the joys of owning a Victorian home is the abundance of period features waiting to be showcased. Whether it's original fireplaces, ceiling roses, or decorative cornices, the right paint colours can enhance these architectural elements and make them the focal point of the room. Choose contrasting colours to highlight intricate details or opt for a monochromatic scheme for a more cohesive look.

Bringing Elegance to Every Room

From the grandeur of the entrance hall to the cosiness of the bedrooms, each room in your Victorian home deserves its own unique colour scheme. Experiment with different hues and finishes to create a sense of flow while adding personality to every space. Don't be afraid to mix bold colours with softer shades for a dynamic yet harmonious look.
