Dramatic and Bold Colors to Incorporate Into Your Decor ASAP

When it comes to easy-to-live-with colors, moss green might not be the first hue to come to mind — but it's surprisingly versatile. When positioned with neutrals, it brings in a natural, earthy element; among jewel tones, it reads a bit art deco. See for yourself with this Macleary Chair ($500), whose velvet upholstery looks rich and lustrous in the verdant color.

Carved by hand, this Oomph Newport Console ($3,450) is available in a wide array of colors, from this shocking pink to lime green to muted blue. (And yes, Oomph does custom shades, too.) More of the DIY type? You'd be amazed by what some pink paint can do for a thrift-store find.

If you want to embrace color but can't choose just one statement hue, good news: you don't have to. This Evolution Betsy Colorful Woven Bench ($120) features a mango wood frame and a woven seat with bright reds, pinks, yellows, and blues — and somehow, the maximalist mix works for all kinds of rooms.

Stack and rearrange the glossy shapes of this &Tradition Shuffle Side Table ($835) any way you wish. No matter how you do it, the saturated colors will become a focal point of the room.

To perk up a ho-hum room, just roll out this World Needle Dania Area Rug ($109). Its hypersaturated violets, pretty pinks, and deep teal tones add instant visual energy and — as with the bench above — are surprisingly easy to work with.

Getting purple right can be tricky; a too-light hue can lean juvenile, while certain tones are too Grimace (you know the ones). The Sweater Polychrome Throw ($244) simplifies the process by pairing two regal purples that play off each other beautifully. Toss it over your sofa, and you're done.

An homage to Danish designer Finn Juhl's original piece, this 1955 TV Cabinet ($1,759) pairs cool blue tones with walnut. It's as compelling a combination today as it was nearly 70 years ago.

You can customize the upholstery of this Modular Bondi Armchair ($1,200), but if you ask us, this terracotta chenille strikes the right balance of soft texture and vibrant color.

This deep stone blue is so classic, so timeless. (Can't you just see it in an English country home?) The pretty hue adorns the top of this cotton Shauf Cushion ($99) and is complemented by neutral greige fabric on the edges.

Don't be afraid to pair two bold hues of the same color. Here, a shock of electric lime provides contrast against a soothing sage green in "Sage/Neon" ($398) by Los Angeles-based artist Emily Keating Snyder.
