Matching Tones

When styling an all-white service yard, it is crucial to introduce different white tones so that the space does not seem flat and bland. Mix varying shades of white and beige (maybe even grey) with light wood furnishing to create a classic and timeless aesthetic. For a seamless transition across the room, have your furniture and appliances share the same colour.

Texture and Finishing

Time to weave in some depth and dimension! From straight to curly spiral wood grains, embrace the natural world with wood elements. Besides pattern grains, there are different wood finishes (matte and glossy) and textures (rough and smooth) you may consider. By layering them, a contrast is created.

Contrast Colours

Skew away from the traditional all-white setting and create a striking visual corner with contrasting colours. The modern farmhouse has a perfect balance of dark and light wood elements, allowing the space to be inviting yet sophisticated. Keeping to the theme, match the Solar Pro in Eclipse to brighten your space while fast drying your laundry.

Wood Accents

Accents are great when creating a signature style. In service yards, wood accents can include countertops, shelves and frames that highlight a space. Another accent piece is appliances. For more earthy tones, the Solar Pro in Midnight Green would be a great addition. Bookmark this one if you are an it’s-the-details-that matter kind of person.
