It\u2019s true blue, baby, we love blue lights<\/a>!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As every year passes, we see a new colour favourite come into \u2018fashion\u2019. I\u2019ve put that in inverted commas, as once a colour steals the limelight, it does take a while to fall from favour. For example, it was millennial pink that was all the rage TWENTY YEARS ago, yet we\u2019re still seeing this colour used in successful interior designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blue is the new Black, and you heard it here first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Midnight blues are still great when you\u2019re after something dramatic; baby blues are always a win when you want something soft and comforting. But the colour for this decade is true blue. Classic, unadulterated blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hundreds of years ago, blue was a luxurious colour as there\nwas limited natural resources with which to dye fabrics. It was therefore only\nworn and chosen by the wealthiest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, blue resonates with us as a stable colour, a primary colour. It symbolises trust, reliability, confidence and intelligence and I\u2019m sure there\u2019s some traits that we\u2019d all like to emulate in that list!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This blue is adept at working with other colours well and can be dressed up or dressed down depending on your preferred look. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It can work with natural materials, as it’s the colour of the sky and sea. Teamed with woods, bamboos and wicker, it looks fantastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
