Colour Trend - Dahlia

DAHLIA by Sherwin Williams is a soft periwinkle blue colour tone that will create a pop of elegant colour in any room of the home. This fresh and summery colour will look fabulous in both modern and traditional home interiors and can be paired with a wide variety of colour schemes for creating a subtle or bold interior impact.

Colour Palette

For a chic and simple look, partner Dahlia blue with crisp or antique white that will create a fresh and uplifting ambience within the home. For a more colourful look then team dahlia with a mix of tonal blues and purples or elegant botanical hues such as mint, pink, peach and lavender. A more masculine design can be achieved by combining dahlia with dusky grey and matt black for a sleek and sophisticated designer look.

Cushions

Colourful cushions are a great way of adding visual detail to neutral interior space and dahlia blue is a perfect colour tone for creating subtle and feminine colour within your chosen room. Classic floral designs will create a fresh and feminine feel that looks wonderful in a garden view living room or conservatory area. For a more modern and contemporary feel then opt for dahlia and black geometric print designs that will create a bold impact on a seating or sleeping area. If you prefer a more coastal look then team dahlia and white striped cushions with nautical-inspired patterns and prints for a fun seaside finish.

Upholstery

A classic look can be achieved by upholstering a French-style occasional chair with soft dahlia blue satin fabric that can be teamed with a simple oak, white or glistening silver frame for added glamour. Simple oak dining chairs can be upholstered with a dahlia striped or floral fabric that will create a shabby chic style country charm in your dining room interior. Plain dahlia coloured cotton fabric can be used to update a modern or retro style sofa for a zoned area of colour within your room.

Accessories

Clean white accessories will create a fresh and uplifting ambience against the soft blue backdrop and give a classic finish in your chosen space. For a more tonal coastal look then why not select some driftwood and whitewashed ornaments and shell accessories that will create a fresh and cosy seaside feel in your home. If you prefer a more striking contrast against the light blue background then opt for glossy or matt black items and mirrored accessories that will provide a pop of glamour to your room.

Furniture

White painted furniture will complement the bright and summery feel of this colour scheme and is perfect for creating a sense of space in smaller rooms of the home. Grey painted furniture creates a cosy country-style finish that is a perfect blend of modern and traditional style. Classic oak furniture will provide a warm and homely atmosphere that works particularly well in the bedroom, living room and dining room interiors.
