STYLE FILES – Color Me Happy With Pastels

Portland OR. Interior Design Company

As we learned in last years’ Perfectly Pastels post, these lovely soft colors have always worked in kids’ rooms but started to venture to other rooms in the house.  We are now seeing a trend with pastels.  They are transforming to a more modern hue in today’s home designs.
