Colour palettes

Navy is a fabulously versatile colour choice that features a vast range of shades to suit all interior tastes. From rich Royal blues to fresh nautical hues, navy can create a strong feature colour that will be the focal point of your interior or a opulent accent colour for a splash of regal accessorising in your home interior.

Why not put your own stamp on this years popular monochrome trend by adopting a navy and white scheme instead of traditional black. Navy also works brilliantly well with strong and vibrant colours such as Pink, Yellow and Green as well as illuminating metallic tones such as Silver and Gold for an glamorous renaissance style ambiance.

Accessories

Navy accessories are the perfect way to add a splash of colour into a neutral interior. Navy works particularly well against white to give a bright and vibrant interior feel. Oriental Blue vase patterns have made a massive comeback this season and can be used to accessorise a white painted console table or bedside or can be adopted as wall art to create a visually stunning focal point in your home. Navy fabrics also work well in geometric patters and clashing colours for a real eye-catching interior addition.

Walls and Floors

Wall panelling and bold wallpaper has become increasingly popular this season and when combined with the Navy colour trend can produce truly stunning results. Navy panelling channels the regal, period styles of grand manor houses whilst a bold navy patterned or floral wallpaper can give a slightly more contemporary feel to your interior. If you don't fancy adopting a dark colour on your walls then why not take it down to the floor? Navy tiles, painted floorboards, carpets and rugs can give a fabulously luxurious pop of colour whilst keeping your walls neutral and bright.

Furniture

When selecting furniture for your navy interior you can opt for complimentary colours in matching shades of navy or contrasting colours for a definition of colour and tone. Navy painted furniture looks beautiful against white neutral walls and fits wonderfully with a range of Navy accessories and fabrics so that the furniture becomes the centrepiece of your home. As an opposite choice then why not concentrate your navy colours to your walls and emphasise your colour palette with neutral white painted furniture for a bright and crisp interior finish that is sophisticated and chic.
