England 24/04/2013 – Every year home colour fashions change. In 2013, muted, sophisticated shades of popular colours are selling well.
Each year homeowners choose new colour themes for their homes. The world of home decor rarely stands still. However, the change is usually gradual. This year it has been quite radical, people have moved away from bold, crisp highly contemporary colours to natural, more muted tones.
People seem to want their homes to be an oasis once again, a safe haven. They no longer seem to want to make a brash statement, so are moving away from the ultra-modern look and feel that has been very popular over the past few years.
Using natural colours allows homeowners to bring the warmth of nature back into their home. Green is very popular; however, it is not the bold bright greens of yesteryear, rather muted olive greens and spring greens. Feature walls painted in dark green or Indian greens are also proving very popular.
Brass is making a comeback this year. Creams, beige and browns colour themes are increasingly. Natural wood has made a comeback too, with wood tables and bookshelves being particularly popular.
However, that does not mean that all other colours are out. Light blue and greys are also proving very popular. These colour palettes are being used to produce tranquil, calm and simple rooms. Vibrant dark blue accessories are being used for interest and depth, but generally muted blues are the trend.
Finishing the look with accessories
Once again, budgets are tight, so homeowners are getting creative about how they keep their homes up to date. Rather than give each room a complete makeover by buying new furniture as well as decorating they are choosing to update using accessories instead. Many are changing the tone of their walls, but using shades that fit in with their existing furniture. They are then using accessories to complete the look rather than buying new furniture. The right home accessories pull the old and new elements of the room together, completing the look.
Using a website like Home Colours makes it easy to find the perfect accessories. This site allows shoppers to search by colour, room, brand and item or a combination of all four and stocks thousands of accessories in a huge range of styles and colours.
