Spruce up in Spring


With summer just around the corner and everyone in their “spring clean” frame of mind, we’re taking a look at colour trends to freshen up your home or workplace.


White has been the neutral colour of choice for many years but looking forward we’re seeing more bolder colour options creep in, both for accent walls and full rooms. Matching a rich colour with white and grey is an easy and fast way to change the accents of a room, keeping it cosy with rich deep colours or dazzling with bold brights, accessorise with either chic furnishings or rusting bargains and you have a whole new look with minimal effort.

The Dulux Colour of the Year is their “Heart Wood”, a subtle dusty rose pink colour that can work equally as well in a grand Marie Antoinette style home or a minimalist modern office. Match it with plum or purple for a cosy appearance or vivid pinks and greens for something more eye catching.


Crown have a very similar colour scheme option for 2018, with rose pinks and bright limes, creating the feeling of either a fresh wild flower meadow or modern funky abstract art work.

These colours work well in both home and office and will take a room from the warmth of summer into the cosy moods of winter, they can be used to create a calm inviting living room, a bright awakening kitchen or an inspirational office space to keep the workers motivated.

Let us know how you would, or have used, these colour schemes in your home. Or contact us if you feel inspired to take on a big home or office makeover and need some professional assistance.
