Colour Trend - Cherry Bakewell

The picnic baskets are out and so are the lovely sandwiches, treats and cakes that we all enjoy during the Summer season. So this season why not add a cherry bakewell colour scheme to your home interior? This mouth-watering colour choice is perfect for both modern and traditional home interiors and can be paired with a wide variety of natural and bold colour palettes. This dusky cherry hue is delicious and bold and will create an eye-catching focal point in any room of the home.

For a simple and classic design inspired by the cake itself, why not team cherry bakewell with a cool off white colour scheme or a rich and creamy beige colour palette to create a light yet bold appearance that will look great in a wide variety of interior spaces. For a more tropical inspired design why not team cherry bakewell with bold fuschia pink, lime green, purple and turquoise to create a cool and bold summertime look that is perfect for modern or retro home interiors. If you prefer a most sleek and sophisticated look with a twist of masculine charm then you can pair cherry bakewell with a simple monochrome colour scheme that will transform any room into a luxurious designer space. You can include some floral or palm tree print wallpaper for a funky summertime look or simple streamlined striped wallpaper for a more contemporary and sophisticated finish.

If you are not overly keen to redecorate your entire room, why not use cherry bakewell as your accent tone across your soft furnishings and upholstery. You can update a plain leather or fabric sofa with an array of cherry bakewell coloured cushions in simple satin or velvet for a rich and opulent look or bold geometric patterned cushions for a more modern and contemporary feel. These can be teamed with a set of bold cherry bakewell curtains that make a great alternative to a painted feature wall. A large central rug in a cherry bakewell colour scheme will transform the feel of even the plainest of interior spaces. Opt for modern geometric patterns or florals, stripes and tropical prints for a fun and funky finish. For added fun why not include some cushions that feature a cherry bakewell style design with a white round background and a circular red spot for the cherry on top of the icing.

For a light and illuminating finish you can complete your room with some white painted or white high gloss furniture that will complement the bold look of a cherry bakewell colour scheme. Opt for painted furniture items with natural wood accents for a rustic yet elegant finish or opt for sleek and smooth high gloss items that will create a shimmering finish that is chic and modern. For a more masculine look, why not up for some black or grey painted furniture items that will create a stylish and bold impact within your chosen space. Mirrored furniture items are perfect for creating a hint of glamour within your chosen room and give a reflective and illuminating feel that is ideal for smaller interior spaces. These glamorous furniture items work particularly well in bedrooms and dressing rooms as they create a sense of old school Hollywood glamour within your chosen room.
