Refinement is defined as "a highly developed state of perfection; having a flawless or impeccable quality." Its palette is simple and consists of basic colors rather than over-the-top, complex tones.

Getting this subtly sensational look in your home is easier than you may think. Contrasting colors can enhance the elegance and sophistication of neutrals and bring out rich undertones throughout your room. It just takes pairing understated neutrals with deep hues and nuances that interact in intriguing ways.

If painting with neutral colors, consider using dark gray like Peppercorn or subtle green like Svelte Sage as accent wall colors. Paint wooden trim in a bright white color to deepen the neutral colors and make the dark hues stand out. The contrast of light and dark will draw the eye, giving your home an elegant feel that whispers refinement.
