    Slightly off-topic but I don’t have anyone irl to share this with.

    My next paint job is to see how much vivid contrasting color and pattern I can live with in my daily life. Kitchen needs a remodel anyway so I want to paint every valid surface to try all the “don’t” options more or less together and see what happens. Bright colors, intricate designs, the works. (I have a series of ideas for how to pull this off without just wasting money, but if I hate it, it’ll just push for the remodel sooner.)

    On a more related note, this guide doesn’t work very well with 2 colors of the same intensity, just accent colors where one is significantly darker or more vibrant. This is from experience… my living room and front bedroom are both done in complimenting colors, and I could arrange them in any way and it would make no difference.

    I wonder if you could get this effect with more than two colors as long as you manage the intensity properly… I feel no is likely the right answer, because brains are funny lil things.

        Hey thanks! Genuinely :)

        I might do something like that, but I’m not sure I wanna give away the scheme before it’s done… it’s one of those “if this turns out it’s going to be spectacular” but that’s a big if.

      Hah sounds like a wild experiment.

      I too am curious to see how that turns out.

      What kind of colors are we talking? What kinda detail?
