Colour me beautiful
The transformative effects of colour are undeniable, with its ability to change our mood, through to helping us become inspired, especially when it's used in our personal space. By changing the colour palette of your home you can create a different feel to each room, such as incorporating green tones to promote a sense of relaxation and regeneration that only nature brings.
Colour has the power to enhance your life in so many ways, so rather than choosing a palette that's safe but dull, full of insipid neutral tones, be adventurous and instead select vibrant colours that inspire a myriad of emotions. Whether you want your personal space to calm and soothe, thrill and excite or even stimulate your body and mind, embrace your creativity and use colour to bring about a metamorphosis in your home or business.
It's easy to find inspiration from the natural world when selecting colours for your interior, from the crisp white of newly fallen snow on a mountain top through to the brilliant yellow of a sunflower blooming in the early hours of a hot summer's day. So let nature's striking patterns, rich hues and exotic scents bring all your five senses to life when deciding on the shades for your interior.
We've highlighted some of the colour trends of 2020 that will help you achieve an interior that will evoke emotion while being uniquely you.
Warm and earthy pastels
There's a strong focus on nature in 2020 and warm, earthy pastels are a popular choice for interiors this year. Try to blend a variety of spring and autumn tones to create an environment that's inviting and comforting.
Eye-catching monochromatics
Break away from the traditional monochromatic shades used for interior design by selecting brighter, more eye-catching colours in 2020. Whether you opt for cobalt blue, aubergine or even an intense shade of Kelly green, be bold and personalise your space. It will make you the envy of your friends!
Calming teal
Calming teal is a soft, subtle shade that's ideal to use as a backdrop to accentuate the vibrancy of the rich colour palette of 2020. This neutral works perfectly with a wide array of colours, ranging from camel and navy through to peach.
Moody blues, greens and greys
Create a space that's moody and mysterious with the latest shades of blues, greens and greys. By increasing the colour saturation you can create more interest, as the shade of your room will change depending on the time of day, as well as the available light.
Luxe black and white
The black and white contrast never fails to become outdated and adds a luxe feel to an interior. In 2020, bold patterns in black and white are popular for tiles and have the benefit of being timeless.
Shades of the earth
Gone are the boring neutral shades of sand and beige that have suppressed the senses and been a staple for home interiors for many years. This year brings a myriad of earthy shades to the forefront, such as olive greens and chocolate browns to rich wine tones, as well as vibrant yellow ochre.
Strong colours and contrasting patterns
Contrast strong colours with crazy and eclectic patterns in 2020 to create an interior that allows your individuality to shine.
