Zen and Literature

I have obviously been busy, er, not blogging. But not for lack of interest! I will admit that blogging is harder than I thought it would be, especially as a newbie to the design industry. I honestly feel like I have nothing to say. I know there is this whole design world out there for me to learn about, and I'm not even skimming the surface yet.

That being said, I have been busy * wait for it * applying to schools!!! Well, really, applying to one school. So far. But it's my top my choice, so fingers crossed on that one.

Hunting down a copy of my resume today, I found this gem, a traditional library decorated using a complementary color scheme of red and green:

Olioboard // My Cup of Color

I had made it a while back as a homework assignment to an online intro to interior design course I took. I don't remember why, but I apparently never shared it with the world. I actually really love this fictional space. I feel the mellow greens help balance the pops of red in a way that, surprisingly, does not scream "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" The grays and chrome accents also make the space feel more zen.

But then again, I made it, so maybe I'm biased. (Hehe.)

What's your favorite complementary color scheme to use?
