Stand out colours and textures for an everlasting home
Colours and textures are an essential part of giving a home its character and getting the balance right may be the difference between feeling compelled into following seasonal renovations and having a flexible, timeless design that grows with you and you can truly love.
Purposeful use of cohesive colours and textures can provide depth to a space for a continuous luxury feel that starts from the periphery and continues inwards, giving you distinct focal points within the space. Here neutral colours can act as the bedrock upon which signature elements can be subtly introduced as points of conversation that never fail to entertain. Colourful and three dimensional art pieces from small artists can even be the most striking, without breaking the bank. Throughout the room, colour and textures evoke all of the senses and can be used to tell your story.
The wide spectrum of neutral palletes can be elevated by subtle textures in fabrics whilst maintaining a clean and open look and feel, whilst accent colours highlight crafted details to define the space. This impactful use of contrast is understated yet shows a thoughtful approach to the home. In this way, you have your own sandbox to curate the space where you introduce smooth transitions of colour and texture throughout the home, with intentional breaks to maintain that sense of playfullness.
Connecting with nature in your home allows you to take a break from modern life, whether green botanical tones and forms or bright amber hues, and always ensure that you maximise the natural light to make the most of each and every detail. Complementing this, passionate red schems may give a sense of heritage reminiscient of banquets throughout history, either overtly or with subtle trimming details. Ultimately the approach will depend on your purpose for the space and how it may all fit together. Whatever your approach, colours and textures have the power to add refinement to a home, influence moods, enhance the perception of space and showcase your personality. It is a challenged that we relish at nelisignature.
