Need a fresh start? A new season is the perfect time to update a room. Whether it’s a coat of paint, new pillows or a new chair, even a small change can help you achieve your design goal. Off-whites and shades of gray go a long way toward creating a modern, sophisticated vibe. Add wood furniture with natural beige-gray tones for a calming effect.

Neutral colors transition effortlessly throughout the year, but you may need a pop of color to liven things up. Warm, cozy throws add function and color all year long. In spring and summer, you can bring the nature inside with a bouquet of fresh-cut flowers. Update your tables and accent furniture with a range of materials such as iron and glass for an edgier look.
