Colour Trend - Sepia

Neutral and natural colour schemes are perfect for a variety of home interiors as they can be used to create light and warmth and are versatile enough to be partnered with a wide variety of colour palettes. SEPIA is a warm and sophisticated vintage colour that will create a classic and sultry ambiance in any room of the home.

Sepia will look perfect combined with classic beige and cream colour tones to create a soft and delicate finish with a hint of vintage charm. It also works well with soft pastel colours such as pink, blue, mint and peach for a more feminine shabby chic finish. For a chic cafe inspired colour palette, partner sepia with rich chocolate, mocha and taupe colour hues that will create a sophisticated continental ambiance in your home. As the winter months approach then why not team sepia with warm russets, crimson and burgundy for a classic seasonal design. Vintage floral wallpapers will look fabulous in a sepia and pastel colour scheme or opt for chic Parisian prints in a sepia and cream colour palette for chic photographic finish.

Neutral interiors are more popular than ever as they create a warm yet illuminating ambiance that works well in any room of the home. Simple cream or white interiors can be accented with soft sepia coloured linen or cotton curtains or can be given a twist of elegance with some sepia and gold curtains made from velvet or satin. Team plain sepia cushions with sepia and cream printed designs featuring landmarks, animals or flowers or personalise your space with an array of sepia photographic cushions featuring images of your family, friends or pets. A rich gold, taupe or chocolate shag pile rug will create a co-ordinated finish and will look wonderful in the centre of the living room, bedroom or hallway interior.

Classic oak furniture will look fabulous in a sepia coloured home interior. The warm golden oak tones will compliment the natural undertones of sepia and will create a warm and cosy feel in any room of the home. Chunky farmhouse style items will look great with the sepia backdrop and will create a country style in your chosen room. For a more chic country cottage style then select some cream or white painted furniture with antique style half cup handles that will create character and cosiness in the home. If you love the glamour and opulence of French interior design then why not indulge in some French carved gold leaf furniture that will add to the vintage charm of this elegant colour scheme. Accessorise the room with gold candleholders and photo frames for a rich period look or opt for cream ceramics or terracotta pottery for a more rustic and rural feel. You can also accentuate the natural finish of the sepia colour palette with some classic oak accessories such as mirrors, pictures and bowls that will add a stylish finishing touch to any room.
