Using 90s in your home
Use 90s color with matte finishes, wood, black metal, denim, and textured fabric. North light can make Nordic Shore and teal notes moodier. South light brings warmth to Coffee, Acorn, and mustard green. Pair with cream trim, taupe, walnut, faded blue, brick, or charcoal. The warning is murkiness. Without enough contrast, these colors can look tired on cloudy days indoors.
