1 HASSON COMPANY, REALTORS SEPTEMBER / OCTOBER <strong>2018</strong>
| LIVING SMART |<br />
BE BOLD<br />
WITH COLOR<br />
Rebecca Green<br />
Broker<br />
ABOVE Color in a space should fit<br />
a 60-30-10 rule.<br />
LOCATION: 903 Ash Street,<br />
Lake Oswego<br />
Color evokes so many emotions.<br />
Whether it’s a single wall in a show-stopping color, taking a cue from a<br />
beloved piece of art, a few bright accessories or a rug that pops, color can<br />
really set the stage in any home.<br />
The homeowner and builder of this custom home took time to develop the<br />
perfect balance with not only color but also a medley of wood tones, natural<br />
light and the surroundings to create a bold, modern home in the heart in Lake<br />
Oswego. Each color plays off the others. The sun that cascades through the<br />
oversized windows creates an additional vibrancy and adds to the energy that<br />
is so immediately recognized as you step inside this home.<br />
As a rule, color in a space should meet a 60-30-10 rule. That is, 60 percent<br />
of the room should be in the main color on the walls and incorporated in big<br />
accent pieces. Then, 30 percent of the room is a secondary color—this could<br />
be on bed linens, an accent wall, or furniture. The final 10 percent of color in<br />
a room is an accent color—pillows, artwork, other decorations.<br />
No matter how bold you are willing to be, the general rule is to pick a<br />
color palette for the entire house, so the rooms work together. If you’re<br />
designing a space around a large patterned piece of furniture, rug or art, pick<br />
colors you like from that piece. The artwork in this home played a hand in<br />
the inspiration for the main wall colors throughout. Design the most public<br />
spaces first, then tie in colors from those rooms in your more private areas,<br />
like bedrooms and bathrooms.<br />

NEW PAINT<br />
STYLES<br />
ABOVE Contrasting colors on<br />
molding and other features can<br />
brighten a room.<br />
One of the best ways to freshen up a home is with a new coat of paint. It<br />
doesn’t have to be white (or ecru or cream or eggshell or any of the other<br />
whites out there). A pop of color makes for a happy home, and paint<br />
companies are already making predictions for what will be hot in 2019.<br />
Sherwin-Williams announced its predictions for 2019 with its Colormix<br />
Color Forecast. The forty-two colors are organized into six palettes, from<br />
the Wanderer—earthy colors that echo the adobe homes and sun-drenched<br />
canyons of the Southwest—to the Naturalist, with its garden-inspired greens<br />
and mushroom tones. One thing that connects all the palettes? Versatile<br />
neutrals connect with a splash of bright color to liven up your surroundings.<br />
Pantone Color Institute recently issued seventy-two colors it believes will<br />
trend in 2019. Two palettes the institute believes will be a hit are the Cravings<br />
palette, a series of warm, deep purples, reds and oranges, and Classico, with<br />
golds, deep jewel tones and neutrals that will never go out of style.<br />
Once you have your color palette ready, consider painting your ceiling.<br />
Sure, you’ve been told color on the ceiling will make the room feel smaller—<br />
but done correctly, it can add drama and energy to a room. Use a contrasting<br />
color if you have crown molding or other features, or paint the ceiling the<br />
same color as the walls to envelop the room—but do this with a more neutral<br />
color, or risk feeling stifled.<br />

THE HUB OF YOUR HOME<br />
Steve Studley<br />
Broker<br />
Our homes are formed from many unique spaces, each with<br />
their own feel and spirit, reflective of different aspects of our<br />
lives. Bedrooms are restful and rejuvenative, a retreat between<br />
days. Dining rooms have a formal grandeur and the air of<br />
gatherings. Offices speak of whirlwinds of productivity and<br />
living rooms mark the freedom of relaxation. But kitchens<br />
carry a distinction of connectivity to all the day’s pieces.<br />
Kitchens are the pivoting point around which all our lives<br />
spin, the intersection of our many comings and goings,<br />
regardless of how we spend our days. Our lives are full, our<br />
schedules hectic and our opportunities to connect to the<br />
people we share our homes with seem fewer and farther<br />
between. But these busy lives come together in the kitchen,<br />
standing at the refrigerator, raiding the pantry or simply<br />
grabbing a glass of water. In moments of reflection, kitchens<br />
carry a romantic weight as the stage on which so many of our<br />
most sincere memories are played.<br />
Take the time to find a home with a kitchen befitting of<br />
such an important role, and trust the right people to help<br />
you find it—people who understand the worth of those<br />
intangible values.<br />
