No thank you. Just kidding. lol The first one he lists is my house I lean in to the moody academia but I also love a crisp white wall. My living room is bright white with molding. Texture is everything. If your white house is boring, you’re doing it wrong.
Navy/midnight blue with a lighter-midtone brown and stark white is so crisp looking. I'm a fan. It's like an inverse of the previously-popular sky blue and deep walnut brown combo, which I also thought looked great in a lot of rooms.
I have been painting all the 1970s paneling in my recently purchased wartime house white. Lower electrical bills more light and fewer spiders. White pink and turquoise exterior to keep it cooler and deter insects of any kind.
@@dandylandpuffplaysminecraf8744 I intensely disliked that paneling when it was being installed in the 60s and 70s! And yes, painting is the easy way to make it go away. Should you ever long for smooth walls, you most likely have plaster and lathe underneath. You might even get lucky and have sheetrock, the predecessor to drywall. However, if the house was completely rewired during the 70's, the original wall finishes were sometimes completely removed to make wiring amd extra insulation easier. White will of course immediately lighten the gloom of that paneling. However, if any of your rooms do not receive as much natural light as you would prefer, those White walls can actually read as gray.Often in a house lacking natural light a warmer/yellow-y/ creamier tone can actually brighten the space more than just plain white. The pink and turquoise is very complimentary to your wartime era home. I simply realized almost immediately after graduating from design school that I prefer earth tones in my personal spaces. I'm also a bit bug phobic myself, painting the interior of cabinets a creamy paint with some sheen to expose spiders. But I am literally deathly allergic to bees and wasps, so those bright colors on the outside are a no go for me!
I've never jumped on the grey bandwagon as I think it's lifeless and everything looks like it's had an undercoat and you're still deciding on the top coat colour. 😂
My interior walls are covered in light pine planking and I absolutely love it. It's real wood, not veneered. It's earthy and has the scent of pine. It is a pale wood so it brightens the room and it's a neutral tan that anything matches. I wouldn't dream of painting my pine walls.
@@alisonpendlebury-brown7885 Totally agree! The week we moved I got rid of my boring gray sectional as fast as I could. It began to depress me as I had it in my living room for years.
Dark fosters depression. I need to stick to lighter (def warm) colors for decor and save the jewel tones for clothing that will be changed at the end of the day.
Man does this feel validating. Painted my kitchen/dining room that first color scheme and no one trusted the process. Now it has such a cozy vibe to it when the morning light shines in. No regrets.
I think most decorators and interior designers love art deco. Its such a classic look that isnt guagy but feels rich, sophisticated and well planned out. The dark green, brass and dark wood is timeless. It reminds me of an old library or gentleman's lounge. My first house had the navy gold and cream in the living room. The theme was a classic nautical concept with brass table lamps and a couple of whaling ship paintings.
Not me with the velvet emerald green curtains and gold/brass curtain rod.... I love the combo. Super glad its getting trendy. I picked it two years ago because I wanted something different from all the gray. Aaaand I have walnut?! First time in my life Ive ever been trendy.
My MIL still has her green and brass from the early 2000s and it still looks phenomenal. She was lucky to skip the cold, gray trend and stuck with the classic. It's classic for a reason!
I love the first one. I personally just did my living room in dark academia/ gallery in the color Wedge Flat, Benjamin Moore, Brass accent, Dusty Rose, jacquard drapes...love the vibe so much
This is the type of videos I'm looking for and can never find. Thank you! I just like to see pictures of color combinations that go together because my brain gets overwhelmed when I think about it.
Thank you for showing color schemes that give these beautiful colors context and balance 😊 These are really beautiful colors and it good see they are coming back. I hope this is not off-putting, but "hunter green," navy blue, and "burgundy" are the colors I associate with the way traditional/classic was being interpreted in the 1980s (think Cheers) The "hunter green" especially - it was super popular for few years in cozy little bars and restaurants as well as homes, and then it got so popular it was considered cliche and suddenly it was out of fashion. In homes, there was a tendency to use dark green, blue, and red colors in one room, which was too much. You are showing how these colors should be used to bring out their beauty without being overwhelming. - you are the pro!
Burst out laughing at the first one, sitting on my dark green sofa in my cream and brass accented living room with walnut wood and art deco styling. I've been so proudly proclaiming how I avoid interior fashion trends and just go with what I like... Guess that's not as true as I imagined. That 'blue sweater' scene from The Devil Wears Prada comes to mind 😅
Yep, I was looking for this comment. I worked for Linens and Things when the Jewel Tones were big in the 80's. I got so sick of Emerald, Burgundy, and Lapis! Please DON'T bring these back in the same way!
Oh yes dark brown, green, cream and brass! If you happen to wonder what it would be like to live in a Benigans Restaurant or any other 1980s restaurant decor! Wait! Wow! Glad you said you love Art Deco! Do yoy prefer French Aet Deco or American?I'm so glad you mentioned this. You crack me up (in a good way)! You're such a contradiction but I think you have lots of great ideas! ❤️
In our 1910 craftsman we just did our bathroom in the first color combo! Dark green on all walls + ceiling, wood stained vanity and accents with white marble top and brass fixtures! We love it so much! Our claw foot tub and plants compete the room. Oh and we did it for only $1,200! Just a bit of paint and a new vanity. Transformed. We have two big windows in the room and the floor is creamy/bright white so it doesn’t feel too dark in there.
First combo, i have that in my pins for the longest time, though I don't plan on using brass but rather just lighter color wood. Very excited to finally go all in with it soon.
I especially love the first color combinations and too love Art Deco! What is the best way to use in a small living room? It seems that those colors have the potential to make a small room look even smaller.
😂 I can think of several people who are waiting for mauve to be trendy again! Either because they still have a lot of mauve (think grandma), it was a reaction to the ex-husband not allowing anything remotely pink, goes great with all the breast cancer support items they bought, goes great with the pink camouflage they love, or it just looks good behind their favorite human!
The first one is exaclty the color scheme of my new bedroom. A few months ago, I couldn't find anything affordable in the green I wanted, but I kept telling everyone it was going to be coming into style and things would pop up in about a year. The color is just now trickling in, and I still haven't found good textiles I can afford in the color, but it's getting there! Strangely enough, I didn't choose that palette to be on trend. I just recently moved back to the Pacific Northwest (I grew up here) from California, and I relaized in California during quarantine how much I loved and missed green. The cream and dark brown came about due to it matching the architecture of the home (There's detailing inside that looks like the outside of old european tudor homes, and I painted it to match. It also gives the added impression of it being an outdoor space, which I love since it draws your attention to the nature outside the window), and the brass just so happened to be what the metal details in the room already were. I wasn't expecting to see this color palette here, but it's a nice surprise for sure!
Dark and moody, loving it! I can't take the light, bright, and boring. Have some fun and personality with color. I refuse to live in a black and white sitcom or some government looking building.
"Red wine & walnut".. i never know what to call these colours.. I sometimes refer to them as plum or raisin, Look beautiful w slate blue. One of my favourite colour combinations.
These are the color combos I've seen in almost all horror movies. And trust me, I've seen a lot of horror movies. Not saying it's bad, but sets the mood
People in the past clearly like cozy and nap inducing spaces. I feel like the modern person needs a pick-me-up in their home because of all the million tasks we face everyday hence the light, bright, and airy aesthetic most of us love.
Thank you for info on new tones. This video came up just a I am sprucing up my apartment.. Something that I have found’ in a small apartment’. If I use a large amount of the darker darker shades for a whole wall can be stifling. So judicious approach is best.
I have instead of dark green, dark wood and cream like a blueish green, dark wood and ivory ans it makes really love it , not sure if it's right for design but I love the light that flows in the house
The first one is so easy to get wrong and end up with something looking cheap. The second one is fine but too dark by itself so you only see it in minimalist styles and paired with a really modern white. The last one is my favorite and hard to get wrong. ❤
We live out in the so I prefer light and Breezy or airing myself. But I also want color so I choose to use the color in my furnishings. Not the cluttered look mighty all kind of colors to make you crazy but smartly done. I would think there are right and a wrong way to incorporate color in the home.
I have all three color combos in my house. Even though it seems too different to be cohesive throughout the house,I find since all these color are somewhat 'muted' it works.
I love the ones you show! But am I the only one instantly brought back to split level homes and the 90s!? Someone’s brand new “fancy” home back then? Ha
Yes I also crave color . And will incorporate the colors that I have in a park normal. I don't care what's in fashion what's out of fashion. I just wanted to be me. And that spells comfort at home. I like it all so I'm going to try to have it all. LOL
So relieved to see COLOR coming back into interior spaces....we need to see LIFE,VITALITY, interests/humor, etc. in people's homes.
Unless you're like me and neutral grey & brown colors calms you down
@@jessa9877 there's always someone...

@@theta33yes because we all should have our own taste in design
@@jessa9877 I would love one room with a neutral combo . The rest is gonna be whimsical splashes of colours . 😁
Navy/midnight blue with a lighter-midtone brown and stark white is so crisp looking. I'm a fan. It's like an inverse of the previously-popular sky blue and deep walnut brown combo, which I also thought looked great in a lot of rooms.
The Forrest green, brass and cream white has been a trend since 2012 and I still love it! :)

The 1st is the prettiest but when you live in a tropical climate none of these dark moody interiors work AT ALL when you have bright sunshine 24/7.
Right 👍 Love my Tropical colors 😍
Right 👍... Love my Tropical colors & styles. 🥰
Such a fair point!
@@Nick_Lewis Love your work 🥰

Sitting in my living room that is forest green, cream, medium brown woods and, I call it gold or maize (on some of the pillows.) okaaaay 👍🏼

Green is my favourite colour so I was thrilled to see it trending at the same time I was furnishing my first home :D
Forest green one is my favourite. Warm and elegant ❤
LOVE ART DECO TOO !!!
I love all these color combinations!
Not me with the velvet emerald green curtains and gold/brass curtain rod.... I love the combo. Super glad its getting trendy. I picked it two years ago because I wanted something different from all the gray.
Aaaand I have walnut?! First time in my life Ive ever been trendy.
Aaaaand I have a navy couch with a red/light brown rug. I feel so justified in my choices. Lol
Love this for you! 💕

This is so good it needs to have a longer video! Love to see more ideas…😊
Finally some colors and character❤
I love the first one.

Forest green for the win!

We had these colors in the 80’s too.
And they are still in and outside of some houses. Can't stand them.
Yep, I was looking for this comment. I worked for Linens and Things when the Jewel Tones were big in the 80's. I got so sick of Emerald, Burgundy, and Lapis! Please DON'T bring these back in the same way!
This really helps! I didn’t realize how much you could play with just a few colors. So exciting
Love this! So glad forest green is back baby! Reminds me of my parents house from the 90’s.
I like the first one🏅that green is settled without feeling dark and cold!!

I had the last combo for the last 8 years. I have my walls primed for a new color! I guess I’m always ahead. 😊
That first one is my favorite!!! I have it in my apartment!!
I loooooove the forest green combo!
First combo, i have that in my pins for the longest time, though I don't plan on using brass but rather just lighter color wood. Very excited to finally go all in with it soon.

I love white/cream, beige, blue and gold
Loving ALL these color combinations! So calming and also somewhat romantic 🥰
Gorgeous!! Love the rich colors❤
lol I just bought two olive green couches!!! Yay I’m on trend
Love these colors. Very cozy and warm, calming
Yes, I love it❤ thank you for these great tips!
I love all of these
So weary of gray!
I’m obsessed with the green palette! I am about to get my first house with my husband, thanks for this video, my decision making is over!
It’s giving late 90s early 2000 vibes. Please don’t let mauve come back!!!!
😂 I can think of several people who are waiting for mauve to be trendy again! Either because they still have a lot of mauve (think grandma), it was a reaction to the ex-husband not allowing anything remotely pink, goes great with all the breast cancer support items they bought, goes great with the pink camouflage they love, or it just looks good behind their favorite human!

The dark green color combo is just gorgeous, especially with the brass. But I would get tired of it. I can’t repaint my house every couple years.
Dark and moody, loving it! I can't take the light, bright, and boring. Have some fun and personality with color. I refuse to live in a black and white sitcom or some government looking building.
My combos are cream, light teal and moss to sage green. With bright white and pint pop of accents.
"Red wine & walnut".. i never know what to call these colours.. I sometimes refer to them as plum or raisin, Look beautiful w slate blue. One of my favourite colour combinations.
Love these shorts!!
I’m finally back in style 😂 I love the darker colors especially in greens and browns, it’s so comfy, reminds me of a walk in the woods.
I’m glad they’re starting to get some color out there again. I detest the neutrals. I love color.
These are the color combos I've seen in almost all horror movies. And trust me, I've seen a lot of horror movies. Not saying it's bad, but sets the mood

Same. We're just now getting rid of the original hunter green carpet in our early 2000s house.
@@ashleybustillo2694I’m still using the dark green couch& green smaller pieces, but am changing them out.
I like all those combinations
You show me just what I have in my mind......I love all you videos
The first combo is my fav
Love the last set
I prefer white, light blue, and orange. 😊
I recently put the following colors together in an outfit and loved them...pale peach, terra cotta and a deep plum.
I am SO GLAD millenial gray and the black/white/red color scheme are dead. 🎉🎉🎉 Bring me all the colours!

This is a very useful video to show good examples of color comb. I love the first one
I’d love more color combos. I don’t think I could get enough of them 💙🤎🧡
My kitchen is the 1st colour combo, and living room applies the 2nd combo! Love! xoxo from Sunny Singapore
I have instead of dark green, dark wood and cream like a blueish green, dark wood and ivory ans it makes really love it , not sure if it's right for design but I love the light that flows in the house
Teal, dark woods and ivory 🤌
Im a fan 😊
Forest green and cream was how I did my bedroom in high school. I still love the combo
Gives outdated 70s vibes . Black and white is absolutely timeless . Matched with a rose gold ✨
Love the navy and brown
Truly one of my favorite (favourite🙃) TH-camrs. Look forward to all your videos. 🥰
Dark green and pink!
The first one is so easy to get wrong and end up with something looking cheap. The second one is fine but too dark by itself so you only see it in minimalist styles and paired with a really modern white. The last one is my favorite and hard to get wrong. ❤
The red is also so warm!
Not in my color wheel. Love your ideas Nick!!! But I'm a light color person 😊

Not the cluttered look mighty all kind of colors to make you crazy but smartly done. I would think there are right and a wrong way to incorporate color in the home.
I hope to see this everywhere. My soul would sing
My grandfather made beautiful walnut furniture, so I am always drawn to that.
Yes love the rich wine and navy not sure the green a bit heavy for me !
I love the blue cabinets. Used to be you could not find that color from the manufacturers. Now it’s available everywhere.
Post covid the white ssterile look is so out. I love the color . i think a lot of this works most for high ceilings.
I have all three color combos in my house.
Even though it seems too different to be cohesive throughout the house,I find since all these color are somewhat 'muted' it works.
I love the way you explained this ❤
Lovely calueres from F&B.
I never hear anyone mention art deco! ❤
Beautiful dark academia vibes
[Italian mafia accent] you know why I love you, Nick? Because you love Art Deco.
Eggplant color would look nice on all of them but especially the 2nd one
Blue and brown reminds me of a mobile home I lived in in the 1980s lol
And the wine/walnut s giving early 90s lol
More color combo shorts please!
Is giving 1990 ❤
Loved this, so sick of gray and white!!!!!
I am trying to rid my house of anything farmhouse, and neutrals
I am embarrassed to say that I liked forest green in the 80's so it's nice to see it come back.
I love the ones you show! But am I the only one instantly brought back to split level homes and the 90s!? Someone’s brand new “fancy” home back then? Ha
I'd love to live in all of the houses you showed, but especially the one with a blue door
I’m not sure if you seen wine and blue and cream it looks incredible 😊
Jesus finally some colors
So glad to get away from endless grays. I feel like designers have been under a cloud for the last 20 years with all that gray!
IKR
Yes I also crave color . And will incorporate the colors that I have in a park normal. I don't care what's in fashion what's out of fashion. I just wanted to be me. And that spells comfort at home. I like it all so I'm going to try to have it all. LOL
