15 BEST COLOUR TRENDS FOR HOME DÉCOR

Millennial Pink

While design enthusiasts may know it as Scandi Pink or Rose Quartz, this soft rosy colour — a crossover between blush and salmon — has been coined the colour of the moment for the Tumblr generation by New York magazine. Pink generally can be quite tricky colour, however with just a little direction, pink decor can turn out chic instead of tacky or childlike. If you love the colour and looking for an idea for your home décor, this is what Belle Fierte has to offer. Who's ready to decorate?

Burnt Orange

Orange is a great colour if you need stimulation or motivation, or if you will be using the room for entertaining, fun, or socialising. It’s the colour of joy and creativity. Incorporate this spicy, orange-touched, red into any room to bring in a warm and inviting energy. This colour works wonders not only on the walls, but also on big furniture pieces, such as sofas and armchairs making the room feel very cosy.

Yellows

"Yellows, from pale butters to dark mustard, are cropping up everywhere," says Stephanie Piece, MasterBrand Cabinets' director of design and trends. The colour it's associated with joy, happiness, intellect, and energy. Yellow produces a warming effect, arouses cheerfulness, stimulates mental activity, and generates muscle energy. By mixing it with navy, brown or grey you could achieve an amazing results for your home décor.

Greenery

The Colour of the Year for 2017, as cooked up by the bods at Pantone, is a very distinctive shade of frog green that represents the relationship between money and nature. A refreshing and revitalizing shade, Greenery is symbolic of new beginnings. A life-affirming shade, Greenery is also emblematic of the pursuit of personal passions and vitality. Nature’s neutral, PANTONE Greenery is a versatile “trans-seasonal” shade that lends itself to many colour combinations; is paired with neutrals, brights, deeper shades, pastels and metallics.

Byzantine Blue

Glidden is keeping it calm and cool for 2017 with Byzantine Blue - a serene grey violet blue. "It stretches the boundaries of purple to borrow all of best qualities of blue and grey, making it an appealing colour choice for nearly any room," says Misty Yeomans, PPG colour marketing manager, Glidden paint. Paired with dark neutrals, it feels more grey, and with whites, more blue-purple.

Courtyard Green

As stated by Benjamin Moore “These timeless, elegant, classic colour guarantee beautiful, usable colour all the time, every time.” Pairs well with greys and taupes.

Olive

Muddy, countryside greens are a more approachable way of nailing the botanic trend that Greenery has bloomed. Spend your own greens correctly and the payoff will be serious style credibility.

Stone White

White with off-white is still trending. As stated by Forbes ”There is just something refreshing about a room bathed in white. But, when done in one stark white tone, things can start to feel clinical. Balancing a white palette with creamy off-whites and natural linen hues creates a breath taking look that can be rich with character”.

Mushroom

Warmer than grey, but cooler than taupe, this neutral, earthy shade is popping up everywhere. There are several variations of this colour -- you can go for a cooler tone like “Creamy Mushroom” from Behr or an option closer to beige, such as “Sautéed Mushroom” from Olympic. Whatever option you choose, though, you’re sure to love how the calm, neutral shade enhances your living space.

Dusk Blue

Create a fabulously fresh space with blue. Marry steely blues, from mineral to aqua shades, to devise a scheme you will not want to leave. Mimic a dado or picture rail in paint – and take it all around the room for added impact. Keep the feel classic with white or natural wood furniture or create a more exotic look by adding texture and pattern for that year-round holiday feel.

Chiffon Black

Dark decor, with grey or black walls is the new white. Actually, not only walls, but also primarily a furniture could transform your home, where even smaller spaces can look modern and elegant. The dramatic effect that black walls can create is unequalled and it takes courage and commitment to create a stunning interior design adorned with black walls. From stunning home offices, to opulent sitting rooms, black will help you to create a décor of your dreams…

Poised Taupe

If you're tired of grey’s near domination of neutrals for the past five years, then you'll be pleased to see that Sherwin-Williams has gone with a hue that mixes it up."Poised Taupe celebrates everything people love about cool grey as a neutral, and also brings in the warmth of brown, taking a colour to an entirely new level. Not cool or warm, nor grey or brown, Poised Taupe is a weathered, woodsy neutral bringing a sense of cosiness and harmony that people are seeking," says Sue Wadden, director of colour marketing.

Shadow

From light to dark, Benjamin Moore's Shadow is a rich, royal amethyst that is a "master of ambiance," according to Ellen O'Neill, Benjamin Moore Creative Director. "It is a colour that calls to mind a 'past', yet it can also make a contemporary, colour-confident statement." This isn't the first time the popular paint brand has gone with a colour in the purple family; “It ebbs and flows with its surroundings, and light brings it to life. Rich, royal amethyst can fade into the soft lilac-grey of distant mountains or morph into lustrous coal. Indulge your mysterious side. Let Shadow set the mood.” Ellen O’Neill, Creative Director

Cloudberry

A soft violet, Cloudberry is the 2017 pick from Olympic. The hue is meant to create a space for solace from the bustle of the day to day grind. "Home décor trends for 2017 are reflecting society's urge to find a space apart from constant connectedness, and to create balance by establishing our homes as places to refresh," said Dee Schlotter, PPG senior colour marketing manager, Olympic Paints & Stains brand. "Cloudberry conveys retreat from the pressures of daily life, encouraging meditation and mindfulness, inspiring more focus and less stress."

Ramie

The latest spin on classic white. "I used it in a way that Europeans do, by painting the entire room, including the walls, ceiling, trim and fireplace," says designer Michael Del Piero. "Pure sophistication!"
