There is no escaping it… Blue is irrefutably this season’s ‘coolest’ shade. The pages of Elle Decoration are awash with inky, icy cool tones, hailing blue as the colour to be championing in our homes this spring. Our Home Buyers were quick on the uptake with our hero home story ‘Twilight Tones’ which combines dark sapphire with wavy fluid graphic prints and soft geometrics. This makes for one of our most grown-up sophisticated home stories and lends itself well to flashes of pearlescent, metallic hues and reflective surfaces (our Capri or Charlston Coffee Table  immediately spring to mind).

All shades of blue go this season (that applies to fashion too) so it doesn’t have to feel cold. Challenge it’s frosty perception by selecting deep cobalt or royal shades that create drama whilst still being welcoming.  Mix them with creamy neutrals to soften the feel of a room and add warmth…
