Colour Trend - Purple Ash

With the arrival of the spring season the interior design world sees a rise in the appearance of brighter and more feminine pastel colours that are perfectly complimentary in both modern and traditional home interiors. PURPLE ASH is set to be one of Pantone’s hottest sellers this season and its elegant dusky purple tones will create an eye catching yet subtle pop of colour in any room of the home.

For a classic and fresh interior design then partner purple ash with crisp white colour palettes to create a bright and refined interior look that can be paired with a simple striped or leaf print wallpaper for a subtle hint of pattern. If you prefer a more masculine take on this colour scheme then why not partner purple ash with a range of pale and deep grey hues or dark black and charcoal tones for a hint of opulence and drama. This colour palette works well with modern geometric patterned wallpaper or a more traditional rococo or baroque design with metallic elements for added visual impact. To compliment the spring/summer season you could team purple ash with an array of botanical pastel and chalky hues such as mint, lemon, peach, pink and duck egg blue to create a garden inspired look that looks perfect with classic floral wallpaper.

Dusky and pastel hues such as purple ash work extremely well on your soft furnishings and upholstery as they can be accommodated into a wide range of interior styles and designs without overpowering the entire room. A set of floral curtains or geometric print curtains in a purple ash and pastel colour palette will look great in classic bedrooms, living rooms and dining rooms and are a great way of adding pattern to a plain feature wall as an alternative to wallpaper. If you love the elegance of French chateau style interior design then upholster a feminine shaped sofa, chair or head board with a simple purple ash linen fabric or a shimmering satin material and team with a white painted or smoked oak frame for a chic and feminine interior look. Team with floral cushions and bedding to add to this feminine design.

White painted furniture is the perfect partner to a purple ash interior design and will create a sense of space and light that is perfect for smaller homes. Opt for rustic or French style furniture for traditional homes or sleek high gloss designs for a more contemporary look. If you prefer a more sophisticated partner to a purple ash interior then you could opt for some grey painted furniture items for a cosy and rich interior feel or even some sleek and elegant mirrored furniture items that will add a splash of glamour to your chosen room. You can accentuate this look with some striking wall mirrors, mirrored photo frames and accessories or keep it chic and simple with some classic white ceramics, ornaments and a white chandelier that will create a simple French inspired finish.
