Colour Trend – Azure

Summer is all about creating a feeling of relaxation and escapism and this June the favourite colour scheme is bold and bright AZURE blue that is sure to create a sophisticated oceanic feel in any room of the home. This sumptuous blue hue works extremely well in both contemporary and classic interiors and is perfect for providing a pop of colour in an otherwise neutral space.

Colour Palette
The perfect partner to cool azure blue is crisp white or dove grey that will create a fresh coastal inspired feel that works extremely well in smaller rooms of the home. For a more beach inspired tropical design then select azure, sand and cream hues that can be accented with bursts of bright fuchsia, lime and yellow for a Miami style interior look. If you prefer a more masculine edge to your chosen room then team azure with black and white or deep navy hues that will create a sophisticated and refined feel in your room.

 

Cushions
Tie dye effect cushions will look great in azure, teal and sky blue hues for a cool and calm ambiance in your bedroom or living room interior. For a more bold and modern look then team plain azure cushions with eye-catching monochrome designs in geometric prints that will create a focal point on a plain white sofa or bed set. A more exotic look can be achieved with a selection of tropical or Moroccan print cushions featuring azure, pink, green and yellow with accents of metallic embroidery, beads and tassels for added glamour and luxury.

 

Upholstery
If you don’t wish to create a bold feature wall in your chosen interior space then why not create a focal point using a selection of bright azure upholstery that is sure to create a centrepiece within your home. A classic chesterfield style armchair or modern retro sofa will look great in a simple azure cotton fabric that will stand out perfectly in a plain or minimal interior space. For a more opulent look then take some French carved dining chairs and upholster in an azure blue satin or velvet fabric that can be teamed with fresh white or shimmering silver frames for added luxury and glamour.

Accessories
Plain white accessories are a great way of creating a light and uplifting ambiance in your chosen room and make the perfect partner to a bold azure interior space. For a bold and masculine finish then why not take a selection of black ornaments, accessories and wall art that will stand out against the bright and vibrant backdrop. A glamorous and modern finish can be achieved with some glistening mirrored accessories and wall mirrors that will look amazing partnered with a large silver chandelier for a chic and opulent finish.

Furniture
White painted furniture is still as popular as ever and is a sure fire way to create a sense of space and light in smaller or more compact home interiors. Opt for classic French designs for a period style home or more modern country cottage styles for an elegant and homely finish. Classic oak furniture will create a rich and cosy feel in your chosen home and lighter oak options will add to the fresh coastal feel of the colour scheme. For a modern burst of glamour then take a selection of mirrored furniture items that are sure to create a focal point within your chosen room.
