Palettes for High Traffic Homes

Spicy Americana

A three-color palette of orange-brown-blue creates a cozy atmosphere in a family room by Boston interior designer Kathie Chrisicos (www.chrisicos.com). A striped rug anchors the room and establishes the high-traffic palette. Walls painted pale taupe add a neutral background, while the television-fireplace wall gains distinction painted in Benjamin Moore’s Affinity AF-560 Flint.
