Fancy giving your home a facelift this summer? We know we’ve spent so long looking at our own four walls this year that we’re dying to give them a fresh lick of paint. But what colour do you choose? We’ve put together our top five favourite shades for the second half of this year.
1) Earthy Neutrals
Warm neutral shades such as taupe, greige, terracotta and umber are back with a bang this year. For a cool, Scandi vibe we’d team these colours with mixed metals, lots of texture and smooth, clean lines in your furniture choices.
2) Striking Jewel Tones
These bright, colourful shades add just the right amount of drama to a living space and offer a swift injection of personality. We love pairing teal, hot pink and cerulean blue together for the most eye-catching contrasts. Don’t forget that velvets and elaborate embellishments only add to the overall look.

3) Pastel Paradise
2020 is fast becoming the year of the pastels as we seek to brighten up our interiors with a splash of childlike innocence. We love a grown-up take on the trend, like teaming lilac with golden finishes, velvet textures and abstract artwork.

4) Deep Navy Walls
Our love for navy walls is going nowhere and we can’t wait to try adding extra detail to the mix like stylish picture rails and panelling to take the whole look to the next level.
5) Subtle sage green tones.
Bring a touch of nature indoors this year with a soft green sage wall. Accessorize with light wood, eucalyptus and rattan furniture for a pared-back Scandi vibe.
