Combine Leather walls with soft blue woodwork

When designing any interior, it is important to consider whether your scheme will have longevity. Using neutrals on your walls will ensure you can easily update your scheme with seasonal elements, providing year-round comfort and harmony. For example, introducing complementary, seasonal paint colours on your woodwork or cabinetry will bring an instant sense of transformation, without needing to paint the entire room.

Panelling: Sea Nor Sky

With red undertones, the Leather Architectural Colours provide a soft neutral backdrop that offers inherent warmth. In these schemes, @atthemacs and @hornsby_style pair Leather II and III walls with coordinating light blues on the woodwork to bring a charming seasonal uplift. They add freshness with spring blooms and botanical features, as well as natural materials such as bare wood and soft linens.

Add warmth with Truffle on walls or cabinetry

Soothing yet sophisticated, a traditional mid-strength neutral like Truffle is an excellent choice for a scheme that will work in every season, delivering warmth and comfort. @twentytwo_theterrace have embraced Truffle on every surface in their bedroom, pairing with natural wood, rattan and jute finishes to create a tranquil, earthy scheme that endures throughout the year.

Truffle is also well-suited to painting kitchen cabinetry, accompanying light neutral walls to add a little more depth, richness and character to your kitchen scheme. In this uplifting setting, @poppie.clements teams her sleek Truffle cabinets with complementary marble, gold accents and bright spring florals.

Embrace springtime with an elegant pink bedroom scheme

Pink is a much-loved choice for bedroom schemes, delivering a unique blend of elegance, warmth, beauty and charm. In the spring and summer months, these inviting hues reflect the changes we see in the natural world, evoking the same sense of calmness and positivity in the home.

Walls: Ruse

Shutters: Topi

Ceiling: Stone II

Attractive dusky pinks like Roben’s Honour, Kasbah and Ruse are particularly well-suited to bedrooms, as they combine beautifully with a combination of soft furnishings. @revivingno.42 accompanies Roben’s Honour walls with pink, green, teal and rust-orange fabrics to create this personality-filled bedroom sanctuary.

Introduce a bright front door colour for a seasonal update

Often the focal point of your exterior, your front door is central to the overall look and feel of your home. The front door colour you choose should lead seamlessly into your interiors, adding beauty and impact to your entrance. The use of bright, seasonal colours will create an instant sense of welcome, radiating positivity and joy.
