A pop of Orange
About 18 months ago I blogged that Orange would become big in interiors, judging from the catwalk, and it was prevalent at the AW13 Interior exhibition at Paris. The Maison Objet exhibitors used it as both a base colour and to accent any room with a pop of orange… so… voila… some photos straight from the show at Paris and a few others to give you ideas to create a bit of warmth in your room.
Faux Crocodile wallpaper (available at our showroom) with black and charcoal colours to neutralise the base and gives definition to the room.
Bar side table, available at our showroom.
Manuel Canovas Toile de Jouy, available in wallpaper and fabric from our showroom.
A pop of orange gives this look warmth and glamour.
One of Miles Reed iconic designs using his inky blue look, but the pop of orange keeps it from being too serious.
The white room can have hot colours added for winter warmth, wallpaper and fabric available at our showroom.
The Oriental Room at Blakes Hotel, designed in the late 70s, using orange and black, fabulous.
Just remember, to get it right, the shade of orange has to be Hermes Orange only.
Cushion, available at the showroom, to use orange as an accessory in any room.
