PANTONE COLOUR OF THE YEAR:
Ultra Violet is a blued based purple and is a colour meant to drive us forward into our individual creative expression.
Taking cues from the shades of purple found in nature, rich feminine florals and painterly prints are the perfect way to incorporate Ultra Violet into your interior. Introduce pops of the colour into your decorating scheme through plain fabrics such as plush velvets, rich wools, textured weaves and metallic vinyl’s. The calming cool shade of purple is the ideal colour to use as a feature in your interior space where relaxation and refuge is desired. A splash of colour that can bring your room to life in an understated elegant way.
When working with a bold colour it can feel intimidating, however when used smartly it can be a seamless statement in any room.
It all comes down to balance. Using it for cushions, throws, lamps, rugs, artwork and tabletop accessories are great resources for adding highlights of purple into a space without.
If your home space is all about bold and beautiful then taking Ultra Violet to the next level of a feature wall, sofa or floor to ceiling drapery will tick all your creative colour boxes. For the more traditional interiors, we recommend opting for softer shades of purple in classic patterns such as damasks, regency stripes and lattice designs.
