A great video by Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen on using colour in your home and the design rules to make it a success, filmed by the  BBC the video gives some great tips and advice on how to make the bets of your bedrooms and living areas.

Laurence refers to the use of colour in home decor as more than half of Britain’s top 10 colours are variations on cream and, much to Laurence’s disgust, magnolia is at No 1. His task in Design Rules is to transform a north-facing family dining room in a Victorian house which has fallen on “decorating hard times.”

Laurence is tempted by purple, which, despite being his trademark, has only been painted on walls by the designer four times over his television career. But Laurence also wants a wrap-around colour palette to really bring the room to life.

One thing that comes out is we in the UK need to be more bold and adventurous in the way we use colour and the effects of light as it hits the various shades.

Hope you enjoy and gives you some great Interior design tips.
