From soft hued lilacs to electric magentas to radiant mulberry, these shades will be seen throughout luxury homes across the globe.  Should you use it for staging a home to sell in Saratoga?  Probably not, as purple is a “polar” color that may be out of fashion as soon as it is in.  Should you use in the residence you want to stay in for years – Sure, it’s probably fine if it is your own personal expression of what makes you comfortable.

How To Integrate PURPLE Into Your Home:
