It feels generally accepted these days that accent walls are out, but is there a middle-ground between drenching your space in a bold color, and opting for a plain and neutral base? Yes, there is. Hand-painted decorative borders and trimmings are the perfect color pop for those who don't want to commit to painting an entire room, but still want to inject a bit of personality.
The latest paint trend works around doorways, window frames, mirrors and pieces of art hung on the wall — basically any architectural feature that feels like it could do with a little enhancing. Joa Studholme, color curator for Farrow & Ball (who first brought our attention to the style) says this trend is a great way to transform a space, without completely redecorating.
