From Retro and Vintage, Cottage to Modern,
Beach to
Hollywood Regency,
Mediterranean and Moroccan,
let us meet the versatile blue
green hue
which colours water - AQUA.
Accessories add character |
Is it Green, or is it blue? Being on the cool side of the
spectrum, it turns down the heat in summers and makes small spaces appear
larger- perfect for the bayside. Nothing emphasises the magic of coastal living
like splashes of aqua in décor pieces, accent walls, cushions, towels, tiles,
lamps. Against a background of white or off-white and a mixture of natural
materials and fibres, aqua really pops. A perfect example of this is Thea and
Sami Aqualicious Fretwork fabric shown here.
Not Surprisingly, aqua can give a retro feel to spaces
because many vintage items from the 40s to 70s have hints of aqua. Can you
remember this? The Hollywood Regency style used plush aqua in furnishing
fabrics, wallpaper, sometimes with pink and black!! – very dramatic and lux.
Dark Furniture mixes beautifully with aqua, relieving the
deep colour in the furniture. This is very useful in lounges and bedrooms.
In Mediterranean style, you can combine mandarin orange and
vibrant aqua (on the blue side)- a popular pair this summer.
