Lime & Slate

This month's style tip is all about modernising your room and making an impact with a key colour trend; lime green and slate grey. This colour scheme is sure to give you a burst of energy and a vibrant yet sophisticated feel to your home.


Harlequin Delphine Collection
'Camille'


Harlequin Delphine Collection
'Delphinia'

To add a bold statement to your room why not try the above 'Camille' striped fabric in a sleek blind or long, elegant curtains with eyelet headings? Or, to add a more feminine, soft accent to the room, try 'Delphinia' by Harlequin, with its delicate yet contemporary floral pattern, it will add a sense of calm to the shocking colour scheme.  As an alternative and to make the most out of this style, keep the furniture and flooring neutral and add scatter cushions in checks, stripes and florals to draw attention to this punch of colour and the new Harlequin 'Delphine' range, available from Sasha Interiors, Hereford.

or...

Personalise it!


Try adding a large slate chalkboard to keep you on track and to add an earthy, natural tone to the room. Make a feature out of large pebbles collected from your holidays and continue this rustic element. If you don't want to commit to a full set of curtains or blind as suggested above, have a go at painting three large canvases in shades of lime and slate to create a temporary feature wall. ( Zoffany paints are available from Sasha Interiors, Hereford.)

Experiment with:

  • Splashes of bright pink - try adding fuchsia fabric covered buttons to your cushions or throws
  • Glass - adding a new dimension into the colour scheme
