Colour Trends: Living With White
White is a wonderfully universal colour that is suitable throughout the seasons. If you’re looking to revamp your home, then why not choose white for a refreshing new design.
White truly is the ultimate colour when it comes to elevating your interior styling. It works within a variety of settings and can easily make a room feel more updated, fresh and invigorating.
Here we share some tips to decorating with white…
In the bedroom…
Where possible, start with a clean slate, in keeping the majority of the tones within a lighter palette. Lighter colours have a way of lifting a bedroom and keeping these feeling fresh and contemporary. Think light grey, cream or ivory nuances for your bedding, curtains and furniture. The brighter colours will allow more light to fill your room.
In the living room…
White decor is a wonderful addition to a living space. Even if you have darker walls and features around your home, white accessories such as lanterns and candles will instantly brighten your room even during the day. As dusk falls, the glow of LED candles will prolong the summer feeling and add a new layer of warmth to your decor, transforming before your eyes.
In the bathroom…
Give your bathroom an overhaul with timeless white finishes and accessories. A small bathroom will feel bright and airy in light neutral tones. White does not easily date, so choose white finishes such as tiles and sanitary ware for a more universal style. It will feel effortless, clean and on trend for many years to come.
Bring the outdoors in…
Festoons are most often found in garden decor but they are also an effective way to decorate your interior, White cable festoons are trending now, adding a fresh touch of sparkle, hang a string in bedrooms for a stylish result. Add foliage and sprigs of gypsophila to add vibrance to your home, white ceramic vases will compliment the greenery perfectly.
A fresh approach to your interior styling will encapsulate fresh appeal and will brighten your home in an instant.
