When it comes to staging or styling your home, selecting the right tones is essential to ensure your home appeals to potential buyers. A colour scheme significantly impacts the overall ‘sell-ability’ of a property, and achieving the perfect balance between texture and tone is an art form. Choosing between warm and cool tones plays a critical role in a property stylist’s ability to maximise your home’s appeal.
So, what exactly is the difference between cool and warm tones, and how does a stylist decide which is best for your home? Cool-toned styling involves a blue undertone with a clean, fresh palette, whereas warm styling has red undertones, creating a cosier and more traditional feel. Our stylist Yasmin explains, “Cool colours usually work in most homes; however, timber tones play a big role. If the timber has a blue undertone or is whitewashed, it adds natural life and blends well with cooler tones.”
At Sell in Style Property Styling, we begin with a full property analysis before deciding on furniture and décor selections. Our stylists assess the home’s layout, focal points, and overall colour and texture to ensure that all chosen elements complement the interior architecture rather than conflict with it.
Lighting is another key factor when determining the styling approach. Good lighting makes spaces appear larger, brighter, and more welcoming while enhancing the visual effect of décor. Yasmin explains, “Choosing between warm and cool-toned styling depends heavily on lighting, paint colours, and existing materials, which are further enhanced through the selection of furniture, décor, and accessories.”
The takeaway? Whether your home is styled with cooler or warmer tones, our expert stylists ensure every decision enhances your property’s presentation and boosts its marketability. Ultimately, your home’s unique characteristics guide the final decision to achieve the most attractive result for prospective buyers.
