Houzz Tour: Shards bold color can transform a terraced Victorian house - Even the most ardent fan of color may find it difficult to use a palette of strong colors in their home. This was precisely what the interior designer Emma Green discovered when she was invited to refurbish and remodel two floors of this spacious Victorian terrace. "Customers knew they wanted a contemporary style with colors," says Green. "They love color and have an extensive collection of works of art with bright colors, but they were afraid to use it.
Now, after almost four months of work, the bland interiors are a thing of the past. The kitchen has become a contemporary gray and white scheme sophisticated, spirited offset with touches of vibrant lime. And a bold color brightness curves in almost every room of the house.
