The Paint Design Trick That Helps A Doorless Closet Blend Into The Room

Doorless closets have advantages and disadvantages. Doors tend to take up too much space in a small room or fall off their sliding tracks, while doorless closets can make a space look cluttered at all times. Yet, doorless closets give your room a more open and airy appearance. Also, take away the doors, and watch your closet declutter itself!

However, we don't want our open closet to draw the eye and keep it there. It all comes down to the wall colors in your room. Unexpected shades of paint work to make your open closet sink into the background; try coating the space in a dark color, but not just any deep hue will do. If it contrasts too greatly with the rest of the room, it may stand out more. With the perfect shade of paint, a bit of darkness takes attention away from the open space while complementing your room's color scheme.

While we want a dark tint to keep an open closet from taking center stage in a room, finding the right paint pairings can be challenging, especially if you aren't particularly keen on dark walls. Even if the walls are considerably lighter than your closet's shade, if they play well together, the contrast shouldn't create an eyesore.

Display chips with a series of color gradients help make choosing the right color pairings easier. Since the colors are in the same family, you can be sure that they will complement each other well. Combining the darkest and the lightest tint on the chip might be just the right contrast between your closet and wall colors to make the open storage space less conspicuous. If your walls don't need a fresh coat, check out some display chips that have a tint that's a close match to your current color palette. The darkest hue on the chip could be the ideal color to conceal your doorless closet.
