A Complete Guide to Color Drenching a Room — The Tone-On-Tone Paint Style Taking Over Our Homes

Living room with green walls and ceiling and black console table.

I love color — I do — but when it comes to my own home, I tend to stick to more neutral hues. That's largely because choosing different colors that will work together is much harder than it looks, and I have a certain aversion to accent walls. But I think I may have found a solution — color drenching.

Color drenching is a decorating trend that's currently taking over the design world — and our rooms. The technique sees us covering every surface in a space (yes, the walls, ceilings, cabinetry, trims, baseboards and even floors if you're feeling bold) in the same single paint color, creating monochromatic spaces that draw you in and delight the senses.
