Color Placement - Fuchsia!

The process by which color is chosen + utilized in a design has a profound effect on how an interior environment is perceived. I am always fascinated by this effect. Not only the color selection, but the placement and variations of the chosen color. Should the color exist on all of the walls, or just one? Maybe the color is only on the ceiling, or in accessories? The collection of images below showcase the varying uses of one of my favorite colors... a reddish/pinkish knockout, with just a hint of purple - Fuchsia!

Color is on the ceiling, bedding + accessories. The crisp white crown 
molding provides distinct separation between the walls + ceiling.

Imagine this space without the punches of color.. beautiful, but static. 
Once the strong color is introduced in solid form as well as in a pattern, 
it allows your eye to easily travel about the room.

bright white bed linens.
