Colour in the Home

Colour has always played an important part of any home design. The mood, story, atmosphere and the overall tone are all conveyed through the use of colour. Whether a neutral setting is desired for an elegant bathroom or bright hues are required for the bedroom, colour is a key aspect within home design.

 

Colour in the Home - Dulux

 

The trend for this spring is all about mixing bold colours with geometric patterns. By combining these elements, we get a colour pallet which is on trend and bound to turn some heads.

 

Rosey Posey Trellis by Porters Original Paints for example is a bold print. It uses straight lines to create a fun and uplifting atmosphere for any feature wall or funky powder room.
