Colour Trend – Parchment

Neutral interior colour schemes are a perfect choice for those who shy away from bolder or brighter colour palettes. They are a simple choice for any interior as they can be used across both classic and contemporary interior designs. This autumn winter season PARCHMENT is the perfect colour choice for any room of the home as it creates a cosy and light atmosphere that can be teamed with simple earthen colour palettes as well as bold and bright colour schemes for the perfect home interior.

For a warm and cosy interior design that is inspired by Mediterranean homes, partner parchment with warm terracotta and burnt orange to create a natural and enveloping feel within your chosen room. For a more bold highland inspired interior colour scheme partner parchment with rich green or red colours and include some hare, pheasant or stag patterned wallpaper to create a country inspired interior look. A softer more vintage-inspired look can be achieved by teaming parchment with pale duck egg blue that is cool and calming and perfect for any room of the home. If you’re feeling more bold then why not include some black and parchment patterned wallpaper on a plain feature wall to accentuate the space and create a focal point within the room.

Parchment is a great colour choice for soft furnishings as it’s neutral finish can be accommodated into a wide variety of interior designs. A set of simple parchment coloured linen curtains will look wonderful against a bold coloured wall and can be used to create a sense of space and light in smaller interior spaces. For a delicate and feminine look opt for some parchment and pastel coloured floral cushions that will look great scattered along a sofa or sleeping area. These can be partnered with some throws or a large floral rug that will look wonderful in the centre of the room. If you prefer a more wintery design then select some bold tartan or plaid curtains in parchment and red colour schemes that will create the perfect ambiance to curl up and relax.

To create a feel of light and openness in your chosen interior space then partner a parchment colour scheme with some cream painted furniture items that will create a soft and serene ambience in any room of the home. For more cosy country inspired design then select some oak furniture items in chunky textured finishes that will create a classic farmhouse feel against the parchment coloured backdrop. If you wish to create a more masculine feel in your chosen room then why not opt for some contemporary, black high gloss furniture items that would create a real statement within your room and will provide a contrast to the light parchment walls of your interior space. Team with natural wooden accessories and lighting for a country inspired design or why not hang a vintage cream chandelier in the centre of the room and pair with cream shabby chic ornaments and accessories for a château inspired interior look.
