\r\nOn the colour wheel this combination would be described as contrasting or opposing colours. Sitting directly opposite each other you\u2019d think this would be a recipe for disaster. But no. To me, this colour combination has become a modern classic. People can be on the fence with pink but if you select the right shade it can warm up a room and add interest and playfulness to a space. For maximum staying power I\u2019d go for an all-rounder like a bold raspberry rather than anything more sugary or sickly sweet.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
If you ask me, lime green makes your pink even more fun. I think these two shades can be used in equal measure on a piece of furniture but I also love the idea of picking out a detail like a beautifully curved arm facer with a pop of bold piping.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
2) Lilac and yellow<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"Romo](\"http:\/\/test.vintiqueupholstery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Romo-Mariola-Orchid-Fabric-Lilac-Yellow-Colour-Combination-1.png\")

To me, lilac can almost be classed as a very calming neutral and that\u2019s why it works so well contrasted with many other colours. One in particular I\u2019m partial to is a bright, mimosa yellow. Yellow brings instant warmth, cheeriness and light to a space of course and to me, these two shades paired together are like a breath of fresh, spring air.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n3) Royal blue and peach<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n![\"Mallion](\"http:\/\/test.vintiqueupholstery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Mallion-and-Knowles-Macaw-Peach-Blue-Fabric-1.png\")
\r\nMallion and Knowles<\/a> Macaw fabric in peach and blue.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\u201cNot just for gentlemen\u2019s clubs or stately homes, royal blue is used quite commonly now as the base shade for some beautiful, patterned fabrics.\u201d<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Blue and orange again sit opposite each other in the colour wheel, so this is another contrasting and complementary scheme. A warmer blue than most due to its faint reddish undertone, royal blue is deep, classy blue and a total all-rounder when it comes to interiors. It can be associated with quite a masculine look when used in isolation but pair it with peach and you can transport it into a far more feminine realm.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Not just for gentlemen\u2019s clubs or stately homes, royal blue is used quite commonly now as the base shade for some beautiful,patterned fabrics. For maximum effect I\u2019d recommend royal blue as your primary base colour and then just inject the peach tones in small measures. Peach is such a happy colour and if you\u2019re using it in small doses I\u2019d go with the more vibrant pinky-orange interpretation of this fruity, juicy shade.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\nFeatured: One Kings Lane<\/a>, mustard and forest green – Image Peti Lau<\/a> & Pablo Enriquez<\/a>.<\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\nGreen is associated with very natural, organic, calming interiors. I\u2019m a big of almost any green on the spectrum \u2013 and you only to have to take one look around you at nature to realise that there are loads. Forest green is one of my favourites and if you really want to tick all my boxes, team this shade with a lush velvet texture and I\u2019m in upholstery heaven.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Timeless and classy, this is one colour that will never date. However, throw a pop of vibrant mustard in the mix and instantly your forest green is energised and really brought to life. I\u2019d choose contrast cushions or even piping to make this combo work. With cushions of course, you can change the colour combination if you fancy a change or if you\u2019re having a seasonal swap around.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
