Colour Trend - Blush

Soft and feminine colour tones provide a refined and glamorous ambiance within the home and can be used to create an elegant focal point in both modern and traditional interiors. Dusky BLUSH colour hues give a splash of period style refinement that can be partnered with both neutral and deep colour palettes for a subtle or dramatic visual appearance.

Blush colour tones are a perfect blend of chalky pastel hues and sumptuous rich rose that can be used to give a cosy yet refined interior style that is perfect for the spring and summer months. For a fresh and floral appearance partner your chosen blush shade with antique white or dove grey for a soft and serene ambiance. For a feminine period style look team blush shades with pastel pink, mauve and taupe that gives a sophisticated and uplifting look. If you prefer a sense of glamour and flamboyance within your home, select dusky blush tones and partner them with deep black and pewter paint colours with accents of metallic gold for a look that is luxurious and opulent.

Any bedroom or living room area can be transformed with a simple scattering of blush coloured cushions that give a splash of colour and texture on any seating area or bed. Plain blush satin cushions will give a classic look against a plain sofa or window seat and can be combined with crisp white and grey cushions for a soft and subtle focal point. For a truly cosy and relaxing setting team your blush cushions with mohair designs that are texturally and aesthetically pleasing. If you wish to create a truly feminine and glamorous look then select sateen cushions in 3D rose designs and team them with glistening gold and silver or rococo style designs for a nod to period interior design.

A change of bedding can completely alter the look and feel of your bedroom area and creates a stylish and inviting space that will provide a focal point within the room. Blush coloured bedding works particularly well in opulent satin fabrics and can be partnered with crisp white for a fresh and uplifting look or deep black for a more glamorous and bold appearance. Select classic quilted and embroidered designs for a traditional bedroom style or opt for bold floral designs for a contemporary twist on period bedroom designs. Layer your bed with a gold or silver throw or add a mink coloured faux fur throw for an ultimate cosy and glamorous look that will take this colour through from the spring months to the autumn and winter season.

Soft and subtle coloured accessories will add visual detail to your home interior without overpowering the look and ambiance of your chosen space. A selection of blush coloured vases, bowls and ornaments and tinted glass accessories will look fabulous against white painted decor or monochrome walls for a splash of luxurious and sumptuous colour. A dark black vase will look amazing with a selection of white, pastel and blush coloured flowers and makes a wonderful centrepiece on a dining table or sideboard area. Gorgeous blush coloured table lamps will create a soft and sumptuous focal point on a side table or bedside and can be partnered with a clear glass, silver or gold base for added glamour and illumination.

Selecting furniture for your blush coloured interior could not be simpler. Select light coloured designs for a bright and uplifting appearance or opt for bold, dark items for a dramatic statement finish. White or soft grey painted items will compliment the soft tones of the blush interior decor and will maintain a sense of space and openness in more compact home interiors. Classic designs will give a feminine country cottage appearance white French style items will create a more palatial and delicate look. If your prefer a more flamboyant style then choose statement black painted furniture items with opulent French style carvings that will give a period style drama to the home while maintaining a sense of femininity and refinement.
