colourful interiors

A bold interior with rich shades of peach, pink, yellow, red, and green is taking centre stage this spring. These energetic hues can instantly elevate any room, from textiles and lighting to more minor details. Imagine a living room bathed in warm peach tones, with pops of vibrant pink in throw pillows and artwork. Or a bedroom adorned with lush green walls, complemented by a plush pink headboard and a smattering of red. These colour combinations create a sense of joy and energy, helping to make your home an inspiring living space.
