Colour Trend – Limestone
Neutral colour schemes are an ever popular choice for home interiors as they create a bright yet cosy feel in any room of the home. Grey is a great choice of colour tone with LIMESTONE providing a light and illuminating appearance with a hint of tonal natural colour. This pale yet rich grey hue will look great in both modern and traditional home interiors and is a versatile and timeless colour choice that works with numerous interior design trends.
If your home is small or your room dimensions compact then why not team a limestone colour choice with a crisp white paint colour that will open up your interior space and leave you with something of a blank canvas in which to add a variety of accent colours or patterns and prints. For a deeper and more masculine finish you can pair limestone grey with deep and dark pewter, charcoal or black for a stylish twist on a traditional monochrome interior. This colour looks wonderful with dusky colour tones such as duck egg blue, pink, peach and mint or can be paired with bolder red, mustard or lime for a striking interior finish.
Grey is taking over from cream as the go to colour choice for neutral interior decorating and traditional cream cotton and linen fabrics are making way for natural and luxurious grey soft furnishings that will look amazing in contemporary or classic home interiors. If you love the elegance and luxury of period interior design then why not opt for some large and heavy satin or velvet limestone curtains that can be paired with co-ordinating baroque patterned cushions and a velvet upholstered sofa, armchair or chaise lounge for a glamorous and opulent ambiance in the home. If you prefer a more cosy and laid back feel then opt for a Nordic inspired interior design with cotton and linen curtains in plain limestone colour palettes and decorate a sofa or bed with a scattering of plain limestone cotton, grey faux fur and fairisle print cushions that can be teamed with a co-ordinating faux fur rug.
Grey painted furniture was one of the best sellers in 2017and is not waning in popularity for 2018. Light grey painted furniture items will look great against a limestone painted backdrop and will create a light and tonal ambiance in a wide range of interior spaces. White painted furniture will also compliment the light and neutral colour scheme while deep black furniture will add a more bold and striking contrast that is perfect for those who wish to create a dramatic focal point within their chosen room. Silver and chrome accessories will look perfect against a limestone interior colour scheme and can be used across your photo frames, mirrors, ornaments and lighting to create a complimentary look that works well in both modern and classic interior designs.
