During the warm and sunny summer months there is nothing better than injecting a little tropical colour into your home interiors to create a warm and uplifting ambiance that is bright and inviting. This seasons hottest interior colour trend that is sweeping the UK is rich and luxurious FUCHSIA.
This vivid colour choice can be used as a base colour or as an accent tone in your accessories or fabric to create a stunning visual interior space that oozes glamour and opulence in any room of the home.
Colour Palettes
Fuchsia is a versatile colour choice as it sits comfortably alongside both bold and neutral colour palettes. For a glamorous and eye-catching colour scheme you can team your fuchsia hues with sumptuous black and opulent gold for a luxury Baroque feel or you can partner it with crisp white or pebble grey for a more muted and elegant interior feel.
Cushions
Cushions look fabulous in this eye popping colour and can be purchased in a range of styles and patterns to compliment your interior tastes. A selection of plain or patterned fuchsia cushions will add a 'colour pop' to a plain white sofa for a chic minimal feel. Alternatively why not opt for an eastern bohemian feel with intricate Moroccan or Indian designs that add a rich textural and visual appeal to any bed or seating area. You can also choose bold tropical prints such as Hawaiian styles that will create a beach side, laid back atmosphere within your home.
Upholstery
A colourful choice of upholstery can transform an entire interior space without the need for extensive redecoration. You can choose bold and modern patterns for a funky and contemporary feel or choose classic Rococo prints or traditional floral designs for a more subtle splash of colour on your chairs, curtains and bedding. Opt for a bold pair of curtains, a single sofa or pair of statement occasional chairs that will take centrestage in an interior space and will centralise and zone your chosen Fuchsia hue.
Accessories
Fuchsia accessories can be placed in strategic areas or scattered throughout your interior space for a sprinkling of colour that is subtle yet eye-catching. Moroccan style lanterns look fabulous in this striking colour whilst vases, frames and ornaments look wonderful against a plain feature wall. A fuchsia lamp base or shade will add a zoned pop of colour to a plain painted lamp table and will create a functional and illuminating area that is bold and glamorous.
Furniture
Painted furniture is hot on trend this season and a carefully selected statement item in this opulent Fuchsia paint finish will take centrestage within your home. Select a single item such as a sideboard, console or dressing table that will add a focal point to your interior space. If this idea is too striking then choose a selection or white, black or gold painted furniture that will complement even the boldest of interior decors.
