These fresh, warm colors from the Pottery Barn Benjamin Moore wall paint collection can update any South African-style living room decor. These fresh, new colors are softer than traditional African, Style Decor paint colors. Softer colors make them more inviting and more natural. These new, hot Pottery Barn Benjamin Moore wall paints are one way to liven up your living room with a beautiful Southwestern style.
Traditional African Style Wall Hanging
A paint palette of traditional Southwestern style decor includes a combination of warm earthy colors. Consider the typical beige, medium caramel brown, bold brick red, and cactus green found in Southwestern decor.
These are bold colors, and they can also give the living room a heavy feeling. If your Southwestern decor style room includes heavy or large furniture, or many large Southwestern decor items, consider taking a lighter decorating approach.
Renovate Southwest Style Decor
Rather than renovating the entire living room, try to adapt the living space with these ideas.
Remove one or two large pieces of furniture from the living room > that could be used elsewhere.
Rearrange furniture to allow more walking space and open spaces.
If there are any large, heavy decorative objects in the South, consider taking one or two paddles out of the closet and rotating that time.
The minimum number of objects is one way to update the decor in the living room in the style of the Southwest. The next step to renovating the living room is to use new wall colors and light colors from Pottery Barn Benjamin Moore Paint that matches the Southwestern decor.
Warm Pottery Barn Benjamin Moore Wall Painting
Mossy Green Cactus
The first warm Paint Barn Benjamin Moore wall paint color to consider is cactus green. A medium to dark agave cactus color can be instantly updated with a lighter Greenwich Village green paint from Benjamin Moore’s Pottery Barn. This is a warmer green and more Spanish Moss color than a real cactus.
Deep Red Goes Adobe
The next main color color to renew the red side is traditional, or deep red in the style of older Western decor. Go to a different one and choose Adobe Orange in Benjamin Moore’s Pottery Barn wall paint
Medium Brown + Cream
The next color that needs to be lightened and updated is the medium brown used in the living room of the Southwest style. Sticking with the same color as Greenwich Village green from Benjamin Moore’s Pottery Barn wall paint, choose a brown that matches that color.
A light and warm Stone House will be the best dark option.
Recalfacit Neutral
Finally, tie the entire living room’s Southwest style decor together with neutral warm paint colors from Pottery Barn’s Benjamin Moore collection. Standish White will work and add a bit of yellow to an already warm room with a beautiful South African style.
If the Stansish White paint color isn’t neutral enough to update your living room’s Southwest style decor, consider the Seashell paint color from Benjamin Moore’s Pottery Barn collection.
