Choosing the right colours for your interiors can have a dramatic effect that completely changes the energy of your home. These Arrivae homes that expertly use classic spring/summer hues to create a timeless look along with a few tips on how to achieve the aesthetic.
1. A neutral base with pops of colour
The warm neutral base of beige and off white makes for the perfect canvas for accent pieces in this living/ dining area. The pops of green in the wallpaper echo the liveliness of the plants in the space, while the pink credenza compliments the warmth of the brown elements. The splash of deep blue in the dining area is refreshing and adds depth and much needed contrast.
2. An easy breezy mint kitchen
Light wood tones paired with soft pastels can make a room feel airy and bright. This refreshing mint green and blonde wood kitchen is the perfect combination to beat the summer sun. The light beige marble flooring and the rise gold hardware up the style quotient.
3. An eclectic mix of teal and yellow
The contrast of the cool teal and a sunny yellow infuses the space with exuberance. These colours are bold and make a statement against the white surrounds and wood flooring. This versatile palette can be used in a variety of ways to suit your style. For a mid-century modern inspired look, switch to toned down versions of these hues. Whereas in an art-deco style, richer tones of these colours in plush textiles and with gold accents would work better.
4. A neutral lover’s haven
If you’re not a huge fan of colours and prefer minimal tones, a combination of white and tan leather is a classic choice. A muted deep blue is the perfect choice for accent to add contrast and interest. This living room layers texture with textiles, whitewash brick wall and wood rafter panelling to create dynamism to the space.
5. Cool yet cosy silver green and blush
Silver green and blush is the perfect pair of complementary colours that is timeless and seasonless. With this palette you can easily change up the accents such as pillows and wall décor to better suit the seasons and festivals— yellow highlights for summer, gold for festive occasions, deep green and red for Christmas and year end.
6. Icy blue and white for the win
This light icy blue and white kitchen is the perfect antidote to the summer heat. Not only is this combination visually cool, but by using the right materials it will feel cool as well. Sleek materials such as hi-gloss laminates, tiles, marble and granite are some great options to form the base.
7. Pack a punch with terrazzo
Terrazzo is trendy and sophisticated and just the way to add a pop of colour without overwhelming the space. Its multicoloured facets also make it super easy to pull one of the colours to colour block and complement. For example, in the kitchen the blush laminates echo the pink and peach speckles, whereas in the bathroom the pale sage green works as a subtle highlight.
