Bright color evokes positive emotion, energy, and presence of mind. Color helps create interesting places for us to live, work, play, and express our personalities. The two inspirational home interiors that we feature here today explore color through bold color-blocked decor. We’ll see a color-blocked tiled wall application that resembles an abstract sunset, and a statement ceiling that depicts a blue sunburst. Our second high-contrast interior has a Mondrianesque appeal. Bright yellow, red, and blue elements are set against a stark white background, while black metal framework and abstract patterns create bold outlines. You’ll also find inspiration for open-plan living spaces, modern bedrooms, and a unique bathroom.
A bold blue couch creates the focal point in our first living space. Its rich colorway inspires a blue-painted framework inside an archway, and a paler blue window recess treatment. Blue and yellow wall art is mounted above the sofa to draw the eye up. See more ideas for decorating a blue couch living room scheme.
An indoor plant distracts the eye from a radiator that is mounted beside the large living room window. A glass coffee table reflects the influx of natural daylight, drawing brightness further into the space.
The open layout flows directly into a dining space and the kitchen. A floor-to-ceiling shelving unit helps to define the central dining zone from its flanking areas. The kitchen stands out with a color-blocked tile treatment that creates an abstract sunset effect.
The home entryway comes alive under bright orange paintwork. A unique entryway bench sets down a solid black anchor. A small indoor plant adds a flash of life and color on top.
Orange paintwork wraps around from the home entryway into the dining room. A bespoke blue dining table is teamed with an assortment of dining chairs to create a modern, relaxed aesthetic.
Two dining room pendant lights are paired along the length of the small dining table to create a well-lit area.
A wall of shelving is installed around a record player stand to host a huge library of music.
A sculptural chair adds a dash of blue, while wall art introduces sunset tones.
The master bedroom design delivers an eye-catching statement ceiling treatment that resembles a blue sunburst. If looking at this first thing in the morning doesn’t kick your mind into gear, then we’re not sure what will.
Mondrianesque color-blocking shapes our second featured home interior. Solid yellow, red, and blue accents build bright zoning, while black framework and geometric pattern create sharp outlines. A geometric black and white rug underlines a white sofa with a striking pattern. See more ideas for decorating a white couch living room scheme.
The biscuit tufted sofa complements the Mondrian-inspired setting with its cubed aesthetic. A ceiling-mounted metal frame draws an abstract box around two pendant lights behind the sofa, creating a bold statement.
The ceiling-mounted framework supports a breakfast bar countertop. Two modern bar stools complete the ensemble.
A pure white floor melds with the clean white walls, building a light-reflective background.
The home entryway is an impossibly bright red box with a full saturation of color. Red walls, a red ceiling, a red floor, and a red front door complete the transformative look. A full-length mirror reflects the saturation of color and provides a convenient dressing area by the front door.
Geometric black dining chairs command the white kitchen area. So stark is the white kitchen design, that it goes almost unnoticed in the presence of the much bolder chairs. Kitchen wall cabinets are double-banked to make the most of vertical storage space. Integrated white kitchen appliances fit seamlessly into the layout.
Yellow color blocking defines a cozy nook. It stands out brightly from the rest of the fresh white room. Yellow scatter cushions and bolster cushions create layering and add pattern.
The yellow bedroom shines from behind a glass wall, like sunshine through a window. Black window frames define the look.
Inside the glass wall bedroom design, yellow color blocking covers every inch. Yellow curtains are color-matched to the walls. A yellow radiator blends into the backdrop. Yellow bed sheets and cushions cover an upholstered bed with a matching yellow headboard. The yellow floor reflects a solid yellow ceiling treatment.
Built-in wardrobes camouflage into the bedroom wall, creating a simple, streamlined effect.
The apartment has a shower room and a separate WC, where prominent color-blocked areas add bright interest. Red tiles and a wall-mounted red vanity unit color the WC, while blue tiles mark the shower space.
Blue tiles cover the shower base and draw a stripe toward a matching blue vanity unit. Clean white wall tiles are applied in different sizes to create a sharp, graphic aesthetic. A solid blue ceiling ties up the look.
Punchy black bathroom fixtures build upon the Mondrian-inspired bathroom scheme.
With the door open, the WC is perfectly color-matched to the neighboring home entryway. A stripe of red tiles draws a wide border around the doorway.
The bathroom sink and red vanity unit are recessed into a neat nook, which keeps floor space clear in the small, narrow room. A custom-cut vanity mirror slots exactly into the tight dimensions of the niche, which helps the space feel larger and brighter.

Deep, muted colours add warmth to this set of four modern home interiors. The accent colours are delivered sparingly, offering just a taste. There is also a flair of creativity within each of these stylish homes, where extraordinary artwork, textured statement walls, and bold floor coverings are at play. Home design number one features dark rust and olive green elements, elegantly bordered area rugs, and a mesmerising bathroom. Home tour two is crafted with earthy brown decor accents, swathes of dramatic stone, and unique lighting installations. Home three is dashed with muted yellows and rounded features. Number four is warmed by chamois-coloured accents and walls of wood tone.

We all need a little more calm in our lives. Social media alerts are constantly pinging on our devices, demanding immediate attention. Work-life overspills into home life with no excuses or apologies. The world moves fast and never sleeps. The best we can do is to take control of our surroundings, to carve out a little piece of serenity to soothe tired eyes and minds. These two light and relaxed interior designs demonstrate how to take the noise and chaos out of our homes. Laconic white and wood colour palettes communicate only peace and restful balance. A combination of linearity and curves mould clean layouts that flow gently.
In our first calming home interior, a wood laminate floor treatment is laid bare of rugs in the TV lounge. The simple, minimalist aesthetic works to clear the mind. The soothing subtraction of clutter is matched by a serene white and wood colour scheme, which is both crisp and warm.
At the other side of the sofa, an area rug gives a conversational lounge area a soft and welcoming appeal. The double-sided modular sofa arrangement negotiates the space around an awkward structural support column in the room.

A small sink is tucked into the remaining laundry space, providing a handy spot to tackle soaking and stain removal.
The open plan living room has an L-shaped layout. The kitchen and dining area is tucked around the corner out of plain view. A curvaceous partition wall floats in front of the kitchen, shielding it from the front door.
Inside the kitchen diner, a linear suspension light illuminates the length of an understated wooden dining table. A rattan bench introduces natural texture and tone.

The bedroom carries a white minimalist aesthetic with warming wooden accents. Recessed perimeter lighting washes down a plain white headboard wall, creating soft illumination over the pillows.
Beside the window, a small desk provides a quiet home workspace. At the other side of the bedroom, a small couch and side table make a comfortable reading nook.
Floating bedside units wing the bed. Their rounded corners aid an easy flow around the furniture.
Wall sockets and switches are cleanly colour-matched to the white walls to maintain the simple aesthetic.
A walk in wardrobe is lined with honey-coloured wooden units, creating a cocoon of visual warmth.
Our second calm home interior offers a tailored aesthetic with elegant details. A round rug sets down a soft island for the open plan lounge area. A relaxed, brown sofa design looks irresistibly soft.
Behind the sofa, a glass wall kitchen shares natural light with the living room. The glazed walls visually open up the living space, even when the doors are closed to contain cooking smells and steam.
