How exciting that the colour direction for this spring/summer is at its most dynamic with funky brights taking centre stage. Colour can lift your mood instantly so why not create a colourful haven at home.

As we all balance different areas in our life, our themed colours in this season's palette can create a perfect balance, they sit well together and create a cohesive look. Being the start of summer, we thought this is good time to give you a little refresher on the colours for summer 2013 and how to use them.

As you know, green is undeniable one of strongest colours with the wonderful Emerald Green being Pantone colour of the year. Green can offer the perfect balance in a home and bring a harmonious warmth to any room. This year’s colour predictions from Pantone offer 3 levels of green from the wonderful emerald to a soft leaf green with the added warmth of the complimentary Dusky Blue. Dusky Blue is a good option for a lighter summer neutral.

Other bright’s this season that must not be overlooked are the bright Poppy Reds and Earthy Oranges, this palette works well within itself but can be equally fun when matched with Warm Violets or Zesty Lemons to bring out those brighter oranges.

We cannot of course forget the natural palette and a Warm Linen is a good base for any of our bright’s this season. In fact, a Warm Linen can sit perfectly with all of this year’s colours and offers a light base from which to build.

You can choose from so many ideas at UK Curtains and Interiors from plain brights to bold colourful prints. So why not have some fun and don’t be afraid to mix it up! Remember to sign up to our Newsletter and be the first to know about our amazing offers and design tips.
