Deep blue shades complement almost any surface or existing colour. For example, metallic fixtures pick up and reflect darker shades of blue, making them an ideal option for contemporary kitchens and bathrooms. While outdoors, a dark blue feature wall in a courtyard or pool area can make a bold statement. Lighter shades of blue add a sense of space to a room. Working with natural surfaces of sandstone and parchment, lighter shades can also create a breezy summer feel.

STONE ESSENCE
Inside, dark grey walls create the perfect backdrop for a feature painting or a mirror. While in kitchens and bathrooms, greys provide the perfect partner to marble, granite and tiled surfaces. A practical choice for exteriors, frame your doors and windows in white against subtle grey to produce eye-catching highlights.

Fresh shades of green can help fuse the space between your indoor and outdoor environments. Working with dark wood antiques and accessories, deep greens can help recreate heritage charm. While green skirting boards and cupboards add country colour to an otherwise neutral kitchen. Or for a more contemporary effect, offset vibrant green against a palette of soothing neutral shades, from brown through to grey.
