In the Navy

Who says that black is the only deep and mysterious colour when it comes to clothing and interiors? This season has seen the rise of all things NAVY from a simple colour palette to bold and eye catching soft furnishings and accessories. The rich and deep tones of a navy colour scheme create a cosy and opulent ambiance in any room of the home.

Traditional

Navy makes a great choice for our soft furnishings as it will create a focalised area of colour within your chosen room. Satin and velvet work particularly well in a navy colour palette as they emphasise the luxurious and rich feel of the colour. Opt for a large set of oversized navy curtains that can be hung on your main window or patio door area and can be completed with traditional tassel style tie backs in shimmering silver or gold for a rich and opulent finish. Partner these curtains with some velvet and satin cushions in bolster styles with tassels and embroidery.

This style of fabric can be teamed with a bold baroque style wallpaper or a bedding set in navy and silver that will create a regal feel to your chosen room. Why not select some white painted or silver leaf furniture in a French style design that will create a sense of elegance and beauty within your chosen space. The use of light coloured furniture will create a sense of openness and illumination that counteracts the deep and dark interior backdrop.

Modern

A more modern take on this colour scheme can be achieved with some simple navy, white and grey linen fabrics that will look wonderful with Scandinavian inspired designs that will create a focal point within your home interior. This style of interior design will also look great on a bedding set featuring elegant Nordic style prints and patterns and can be teamed with chunky knitted and faux fur cushions and throws for added texture and pattern during the cold winter months. Team with a simple navy and white leaf or branch patterned wallpaper for added detail. Grey painted furniture works great with this look as it is warm and cosy and is sure to compliment the deep and rich navy tones.

Alternatively, why not create a navy and blush colour palette that will create a hint of modern glamour to your chosen room. Select a bold navy, blush and rose gold patterned wallpaper featuring geometric shapes and patterns that will create a focal point within the room. These can be co-ordinated with a selection of navy and rose gold cushions featuring metallic elements that will add a sense of luxury to your chosen room. Include a variety of rose gold accessories such as a large ceiling pendant or chandelier, candles holders, vases and picture frames that will add a reflective and opulent feel that works particularly well in living room and bedroom interiors.
