Colour Trend – Cloudberry

Olympic has announced that their chosen colour of the year for 2017 is soft and elegant CLOUDBERRY. This refined and dusky purple hue will create a fresh and demure springtime opulence in any home interior. This subtle lilac like colour scheme is sure to add a pop of elegant colour across your decor and accessories.

Colour Palette
For a simple and crisp interior feel then partner cloudberry with soft white or dove grey to create a calm and refined feel in your chosen room. If you prefer a more delicate and feminine look then why not pair cloudberry with a range of dusky greys and pastel pink and peach to give a fresh yet elegant look within your home. For a pop of bold and uplifting colour then place cloudberry alongside mint green or fuchsia pink for a more Moroccan style interior finish.

Cushions
Cushions are a great way of creating visual detail within your home interior and can be used to draw attention to a seating or sleeping area. Simple cloudberry and white striped cushions will create a classic feel in a traditional living room interior or opt for bold patterned Moroccan cushions in cloudberry, turquoise, magenta and yellow that can feature beading and tassels for added detail. For an elegant and feminine finish then include some pastel coloured floral or feather print cushions that will look amazing in embroidered or satin fabrics.

Upholstery
Dusky and pastel-coloured upholstery will create a zoned area of colour in your chosen room while maintaining a light and subtle finish in your home. An elegant French-style carved occasional chair will look amazing with cloudberry coloured cotton or satin fabric to create a feminine chateau-style look in your chosen room. For a more cosy country cottage style why not opt for cloudberry and white striped or floral fabrics that will create a refined shabby chic style in any dining room, sitting room or bedroom.

Accessories
Simple white accessories will complement the fresh spring style of this colour scheme and are perfect for creating a sense of space and light within the room. For a more glamorous look then why not select some chrome or silver accessories such as mirrors, frames and lamp bases that will create shimmer and shine around the room. Black accessories will give a more masculine twist to this colour scheme and work well in creating contrast against a coloured or neutral feature wall.

Furniture
Classic oak furniture makes a great partner to a cloudberry interior colour scheme and will create a cosy and homely ambience with a hint of French country chic. White and grey painted furniture is another of this season’s biggest trends and provides a cottage-style look that perfectly blends modern and traditional interior design. For a contemporary designer look then why not select some glass and mirrored furniture, high gloss or acrylic items that will create an artistic feature within your chosen room.
