Many homeowners feel like they are stuck with the drab white paint that adorns their interior doors. The flat surface tends to accumulate more fingerprints and smudges than any other surface in the home, but they still feel stuck with it. After all, how could you possibly decide on another color to paint your interior door? You would have to find the perfect shade and gloss level to match two separate areas of the home at the same time. It all seems so impossible that you end up staying with your dirty interior doors.
There’s good news on the horizon for you! Choosing the best paint color for your interior doors doesn’t have to be so difficult anymore. Here are a few expert suggestions to help you find the perfect shade.
Painting Doors in Small Spaces
Many homeowners are tempted to dive right in by painting their interior doors a bold shade of their favorite color. While this certainly works well in some spaces, small rooms can start to feel very choppy with this drastic change in color. Small spaces can benefit from keeping a sense of continuity with the paint colors. In fact, you can paint the door the same color as the walls but in a different gloss level. Order a quart of the same color with a semi-gloss or high-gloss finish to make your door stand out and make it easier to clean.
Darker Colors Create Drama
Are you looking to create a little bit of drama with your interior space? Darker colors tend to add subtle amounts of drama to your design. The definition of “dark” depends on the design of the rest of your home. Blacks and charcoal greys might be ideal for large, open rooms that already have some hints of a darker color in them. In rooms that are mostly white and airy, you might look for medium shades of grey or beige to pop against light-colored walls. Remember that you will see more brush strokes and imperfections with a darker color, particularly when you opt for high-gloss reflective paint. Consider hiring a professional to complete this job.
Double-sided Doors
When a door actually opens up into two separate rooms, how do you decide which color to paint it? You might opt for one shade of paint that looks great in both rooms, but this is rather difficult to find. Instead, you can paint the face of each door a different color. When the door opens, paint the inside trim of the door the same color as that side of the door. This ensures that your door looks like it is all one color whenever the door is left open during the day.
Adding a little bit of subtle design drama to your home is simple when you paint the interior doors. You can hire the best trained painters to help give you the drama you’re looking for. Give Madani Group a call today to schedule your next painting project!
