How To Bring Colour Into Your Home This Year
New Year, new furniture! We’re sure that’s the saying. Here at The Longest Stay, we know things can seem a little gloomy after the festive season ends. It’s cold and miserable outside, you might have already broken your new year’s resolution and your January diet probably didn’t get off to a great start. What’s worse is that when you take the Christmas tree and all the decorations down, your home will inevitably look bare. However, this will give you the chance to brighten up your 2017 interiors by injecting some colour into your home! Whether you want to install some subtle accent pieces that will have an impact while not overpowering the rest of your room, or go big and bold with a mix of large statement products, we’ve got some tips on stylishly introducing a little colour into your home.
If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to be brave, then you can definitely start by adding some daring and eccentric pieces to your furniture collection. For an eye catching piece that will be sure to grab your attention as soon as you walk into the room, look no further than the Arper Saari 2 Seat Sofa in Orange. This designer sofa flaunts a sleek and elegant look that is given a contemporary spin with its stunning vivid orange fabric. This orange replicates Patntone’s ‘Flame’ shade which is one of their stunning colour picks for Spring/Summer 2017. A product that displays warm colours such as this piece will contrast excellently with pale pastel toned rooms, brightening the space without altering the elegance it already emits.
Similarly, pieces like the Julian Chichester Regency Long Wave Cabinet exudes a classy look with its stylish waved structure, while its gorgeous lavender shade is a beautifully contemporary feature. This piece will also work well in the pastel colour scheme homes we learned how to perfect in 2016. Alternatively, this cabinet will look fantastic among other equally bold products, making for an eclectic look perfect for contemporary homes.
Sometimes smaller home accessories can make all the difference - by infusing a splash of colour into your home without overshadowing your other furniture, these pieces will attract attention while complementing your room. From vibrant cushions with fabulous patterns such as the Nitin Goyal Pixelated Triangles Printed Silk Cushion in the Azure design to vases such as the Utopia and Utility Stacking Vessels that will brighten even the plainest of coffee or side tables, we have a fantastic selection of smaller products that will rejuvenate your home. If you decide to subtly introduce colour into your home, just a few strategically placed vibrant items will help bring warmth into any room, meaning you can shut out the cold and relax in your stylishly colourful home.
Displaying bold and vivid artwork is an excellent way to bring an interesting mix of colours into your home. Visually spectacular pieces such as the Artvark Stumble Through the Crowds Together canvas uses only four colours to create a mesmerising aesthetic that will have a stunning impact in your home. This is a versatile piece in the sense that it can be displayed in a number of different rooms – whether in the living room over the sofa, or in the dining room above the table, or even in a hallway! For a great look, position wall lights near or around the canvas to truly display its vivid shapes and rich colours.
If abstract art isn’t quite to your taste, the Mineheart Still Pink Ornate Framed Canvas Print could just be for you. With its unique and surreal take on a traditional still life painting, this digital print features eye popping florescent pink paint splashed across the scene. It is sure to catch the eye in any room your place it in. If you’re a fan of beautifully unique art, we have a fantastic collection for you to browse through on our Artwork and Clocks page. Alternatively, decorative plates will work fantastically in smaller spaces, brightening dark corners without making the wall look too cluttered.
