Colour Trend – Hurricane Grey

While it may seem like the summer season should be filled with bright yellow, orange and tropical tones, sometimes it’s nice to opt for a more muted and classic finish that will co-ordinate with a wide variety of colour palettes. HURRICANE GREY is one of the hottest colour choices as we move through the summer season into the autumn and winter months. This rich grey hue can be paired with both bold and neutral colour tones to create a sophisticated interior design that is chic and elegant.

For a simple and classic interior design then partner hurricane grey with crisp white for a clean and linear interior look that can be paired with a monochrome striped, geometric or chevron patterned wallpaper for a contemporary interior design. For a more Scandinavian inspired look then why not partner hurricane grey with other tonal grey hues such as charcoal and dove grey and place alongside glacial blues for a hint of calming colour. If you prefer a more bold and modern interior design then partner hurricane grey with bright primary or neon shades with an abstract wall mural that will look perfect in any living room, bedroom or dining room interior. A feminine design can be achieved by partnering hurricane grey with pastel and dusky pinks, blues, purples and greens with a bold floral wallpaper that will create a focal point within your room.

Hurricane grey looks great across satin and velvet fabrics. These make a perfect choice for your curtains or cushions and give a classic glamorous field to your chosen interior space. If you are opting for velvet fabrics then team with crystal and diamante embroidered cushions for added visual detail. Partner grey satin cushions with classic quilted throws or satin bedding for an opulent and glamorous finish. For a more refined and natural Scandinavian feel opt for grey linen and cotton cushions with some quirky woodland creature patterns and designs and add some grey faux fur and Mongolian cushions that will look great scattered along a sofa or bed area.

White or grey painted furniture will suit this interior design perfectly and create a light and cosy feel with a twist of modern sophistication. For a more contemporary and sleek interior finished then why not select some white high gloss furniture items that will create a streamlined look within your chosen room. Mirrored furniture items also make a great choice against the hurricane grey backdrop as they compliment the soft grey finish and create reflective surface areas that give the illusion of space within smaller rooms. Classic oak furniture will create a refined and cosy interior look that creates an ambiance of a welcoming country cottage. Opt for chunky textured items for a rustic feel or more sleek and lighter oak items for a modern interior feel.
