From most landlords point of view cream colour will blend with any type of furniture the tenant has |

It boils down to a lack of creativity and herd mentality where every house looks like the one next door. Most of the color schemes are also chosen by the home owners and not by designers. There is also an absolute lack of landscapping in Nigerian house designs. Contrast that with jurisdictions where home owners are required to plant a tree as part of the new home approval process. Those florida style palm trees will look nice in most Nigerian homes. |

naijacutee: ****************** I do understand the need for earth tone colors in Nigeria because of the heat but there are more such colors than cream or off white alone. |
