The article showcases Alex Hinand's approach to decorating his Chicago apartment, emphasizing the impact of paint color on a room’s overall feel. Choosing a vibrant pink and green combination for his living room, Alex transformed a bare space into a cozy home using mostly secondhand furniture. He highlights essential painting tips, such as opting for high-quality supplies and preparing for unexpected touch-ups, while creating a playful striped design in the doorway that showcases his creative approach to interior design.
Sometimes paint colors in rooms help everything else fall into place. For Alex Hinand... I'll see one paint color or inspiration image, and suddenly it's all I can think about.
Alex painted his Chicago apartment living room - brick fireplace and all - pink with green trim, and he filled it with mostly secondhand finds.
I have bought cheap rollers that shed like crazy and add, let's just say, unwanted texture to the walls. Spending a few extra dollars to make your life easier is so worth it.
One of the most fun paint moments in Alex's place is the striped threshold between the dining room and the living room; he used painter's tape and a small hand roller to make it happen.
