Colour Trend - Pecan

Rich, natural colour tones make a great alternative to bolder and brighter colour schemes and create a sophisticated finish that works well in any room of the home. A PECAN brown colour scheme is a perfect choice for the autumn/winter season and creates a cosy yet refined ambiance in both modern and traditional homes. This colour scheme can be used in a variety of ways to create an interior style that suits your tastes.

For a classic and cosy finish then partner pecan with simple beige or cream colour tones as well as rich chocolate, mocha and toffee hues for a more rich and tonal finish. If you wish  to add a pop of colour to your room then add accents of deep red, mustard or burnt orange for a country house ambiance or lighter duck egg blue, pastel pink or mint for a feminine botanical feel. For a more masculine and modern feel then add some monochrome accents to your pecan brown room that is sure to create an eye-catching feature within your chosen space. Natural print wallpapers work great with this colour palette, such as leaves, trees and flowers or for a more statement feature, opt for a plaid pattern, stripe or geometric print design.

The beauty of a simple and natural colour palette is that it works well across a wide variety of fabrics and upholstery. Whether you wish to keep things traditional or go for a more modern and bold look; this colour is the perfect choice for you. A cosy and rustic interior ambiance can be achieved with some pecan and cream tartan or hounds tooth curtains that can be teamed with co-ordinating knitted and faux fur cushions and throws for a warm and snugly appearance. For a woodland inspired feel then select some curtains and a rug featuring tree or leaf print patterns and team with some cute woodland animal cushions featuring squirrels, rabbits, foxes and deer that are sure to look great on a plain sofa, armchair or sleeping area.

Traditional oak furniture makes the perfect partner to a pecan colour scheme as it complements the warm and tonal feel of the interior backdrop. Opt for classic farmhouse designs or large and chunky oak items that are sure to create a stylish country ambiance within your chosen space. For a sense of light and femininity then you could always opt for some cream painted furniture items that provide the same cosy appearance but also create a bright and open feel that is perfect for smaller home interiors. Natural accessories such as wooden candle holders, light fittings and photo frames will tie together the rustic natural feel of this colour scheme or for a hint of colour then choose some rich red, green or mustard coloured home accessories that will create a visual focal point when displayed on a mantelpiece or sideboard area.
