Design Style: Color Blocking

Written By Yian Q

I love to use color blocking to add wow factor and repetition to a space. Typically, I will color block with the dominant color in the palette that I am using. I may not always use it in the stereotypical “block” format that people are used to seeing, but the concept is still the same…repeat chunks of the same dominant color.

For this space you can see that I color blocked the teal green color throughout the room. This color palette continues to flow through the client’s entire house in varying degrees of vibrancy.

Designing spaces you love to live in,

Since 2015, I have helped over 100 interior designers, builders, builders, and architects – from those just starting out to award-winning designers published in Architectural Digest, Luxe, and more.

My process starts with what is already true within you, then brings it to life in a way that resonates with your ideal clients.

I work with designers because they’re awesome. I’m a member of IDS (Interior Design Society) and served on the board of the Virtual Chapter. Design events I’ve attended include High Point, Vegas Market, and BOLD Summit (Business of Luxury Design).

When I’m not creating brands and websites, you can find me listening to audiobooks and going on long speed walks with friends.

I’m from Seattle and now live in New York City with my wife, Gaby.
