Colour Trend – Hazelnut

Soft neutral colour schemes are a great way of adding tonal colour to your interior space whilst maintaining a light and cosy interior feel. HAZELNUT is a chic and stylish choice of colour due to its rich caramel tones and classic finish. The neutrality of this hue means that it can be partnered with a wide variety of complementary colours and styles depending on your interior tastes.

Colour Palette
Hazelnut is a versatile colour choice that can be paired with both bold and complementary neutral hues. For a simple and sophisticated look then team hazelnut with soft cream, beige and mocha tones to create a soft and cosy interior finish. If you prefer a more modern and masculine feel then partner hazelnut with deep monochrome or grey colour palettes for a rich sophisticated finish. Coastal interior looks can be created by pairing hazelnut with cool blues, sea greens and creams for a relaxed and tranquil ambience while peach, pinks and sorbet hues will give hazelnut a soft and feminine finish.

Cushions              
Traditional motif print cushions will look wonderful in hazelnut and cream or hazelnut and white colour schemes to give a soft finish along a classic sofa area. For a soft and botanical look, add a selection of hazelnut, cream and pastel-coloured cushions featuring classic flower prints that will compliment a plain upholstered seating area or co-ordinating bed set. Simple ocean blue, soft grey and hazelnut cushions in plain or striped designs can be paired with the nautical anchor, boat or beach print designs for a fresh and elegant seaside style ambience.

Upholstery
A simple hazelnut coloured cotton, linen or satin fabric will look great on a French-style carved occasional chair or dressing table stool and can be paired with exposed wood or cream painted frames for a chateau-style finish or glistening gold-painted exteriors for a splash of period opulence. Solid oak dining chairs can be given a rustic twist with some hazelnut and beige striped fabric for a refined farmhouse design. For a more modern or retro design select a hazelnut coloured leather sofa and matching footstool that will take centre stage in any living room interior.

Accessories
Natural and whitewashed wood accessories such as ornaments and frames will look great against a hazelnut coloured interior backdrop and will create a rustic or coastal-inspired feel in your chosen room. For a more elegant and sophisticated finish then why not opt for crisp white or cosy cream ceramics that will create a light and illuminating feel within your home interior. A bold and masculine feel can be created with some sleek black candleholders, crockery and wall mirrors that will create a visual contrast against the cosy and neutral backdrop.

Furniture
Solid oak furniture is the perfect choice for complimenting a hazelnut interior colour scheme as its warm golden tones will create a cosy and homely finish in any room of the home. Cream and white furniture will complement the classic finish of the hazelnut walls and are perfect for creating a sense of space and light in more compact home interiors. For a striking visual finish why not opt for a selection of black or gold-painted oak furniture items that are sure to create a contrasting finish within the room.
