Imagine, bringing the tones of ocean inspired greens and aquas and rich petrol blues right into your home. Filling your senses with the very essence of nature.
Exceptionally inspirational. On the Colour Wheel (http://letsrevamp.com.au/what-a-wonderful-colourful-world-we-live-in) you will find though neighbours, blue and green are not complementary colours. Yet, these two colours are so well harmoniously represented in nature and in aqua environments.
Put these two colours together; the results are amazing. They do not oppose each other, but blend perfectly in creating your aqua, cyan, teal and turquoise. Actually the list is endless.
You can literally bring the outside indoors. In a manner of speaking mirror what you see through the window, and reflect it inside your living areas.
- The Blue And The Green As In Nature Can Be Seen
We recently staged a home for sale. Our canvas was luring, upon a background of natural light, drawing the outside indoors, enabled us to present this house in a luxuriousness of comfort and feel of relaxation.
2. The Living Room
The wooden fence and trees outside, duplicated by the wooden coffee table, buffet and floor lamp.The natural textures of the ottomans and rug blend perfectly with the coffee table and buffet.The group of deep blue glass vases, duplicates and complements the blue skies outside. So too do the velvet steel blue colour fabric of the Milan Arm Chair. The gold metal legs of the arm chair gently reflects the light streaming through the windows.By liberally making use of accessories such as the display cushions, wall art, vases and artificial branches in the varying tones of blue and of green creates a living area that extends beyond the wall, into the garden.
3. The Dining Room
The earthy colours of the high back dining chairs complement the ambiance of bringing the outdoors, indoors. The variations of the blue colours of the wall art, noticeably duplicates the skies outside. Adding a light coloured table runner and earthen ware tall vases and artificial green plant simply completes the picture.
4. The Bed Room:
Imagine, after a hard day, walking into your bedroom, and perceiving the welcoming notes of the outside. The stunning white quilt, edged by a cloud of white soft pillows beckons the weary head. Like a wave the featured sea blue display cushions crests the bed, splashing out hues of blue from the centre display cushion, only to settle upon the dark and light grey throws.
The arm chair embraces the extraordinary trees shaped patterned display pillow. The hues of blue generously displayed.
The wooden desk and wood resembling beside lamp shade completes the picture.
Now, you may be wondering where in the perfect world of blues and greens the green may be. It is there, see, right outside the window. The tree wearing her coat of extraordinary variants of leaves of green.
In the fifth of our six part series on colour, we will rethink PINK!
