1. Accent Wall Living Room Paint Ideas

Painting your living room all one color can be overwhelming or boring, depending on the color you choose. For example, painting all of the walls a grey hue could look dull and lifeless.

However, if you pair the grey with one of the vibrant colors, you could have the perfect color combination of neutral, calm grey walls with one bright accent wall.

The traditional approach is to paint an entire wall, typically the one behind the TV or one with a fireplace. This is because they are the obvious focal points of the room.
