How do you incorporate interesting colour accents into interiors without it becoming distractingly dazzling? Well, these three modern home interiors set the tone just right with a multitude of muted colour shades that add uplifting accents without provoking a headache. We look first at a Russian competition entry that features a colour coded home layout to define each living block. Our second featured interior is a home fit for a creative mind, with a well equipped music area and a gallery of KAWs statues that take over the living room. Lastly we look at a daring home design that delves into geometric pattern whilst pushing back hues into the muted spectrum.
