Makeover of the month – Tradition with a Twist – 0112

Categories: Uncategorized

A Moroccan-style accent wall featuring a traditional pattern in bold colors demonstrates the power of paint. “Color does matter,” says faux finish artist Kass Wilson, of Wallstreat Studio in Atlanta. “Don’t be fooled into thinking that a traditional pattern only works with a traditional style. Unexpected color combinations completely transform the way a design is perceived.” Wilson partnered with New Jersey-based Cutting Edge Stencils to develop the color palette, which was inspired by furnishings the company had on hand. “Focus on colors that need to be prominent and incorporate them into your walls,” Wilson says. To complete the design, Wilson used Sherwin-Williams #6601 Tanager for the base wall color and #6832 Impulsive Purple over a Nadya Damask Stencil by Cutting Edge Stencils for the pattern. The result is a striking work of art.
