Show us something colourful in your home!
It's London Design Festival next week and one of our big events is at 100% Design! This year's theme is 'design in colour', so we thought we'd get prepared and kick things off by asking you guys to show us something colourful in your home.
Whether it's your wallpaper, your bedding, a cushion or your door, leave us a comment or a photo of the colourful things in your home!

Well I will follow Wren's lead by also including my own designed kitchen with dark charcoal matt cupboards and black and charcoal windows to compliment the warm bamboo worktop... It's not colourful in the red and yellow sense... but darks are in! :))

Comments (35)I used to really enjoy The Home Show with George Clark. It was great seeing him improve how people used and lived in their homes. Now I like anything with Charlie Luxton, although I often don't agree with his ideas, and not forgetting Kirsty and Phil. I guess Kirsty has taken over from George in altering people's home to fit their needs....See MoreJoin us at the Barr Group Home Show, Free Home Design Event: 14th Oct!

Comments (0)T E A L 10 Reasons why we LOVE the #colour teal & 10 Images on how it can work in your #home… 1. It has obvious associations with the #sea and the tropics (dreamy) At its brightest it has a yellow #undertone and is very close to #turquoise. This shade looks great with citrus hues, (orange, yellow and lime green all makes perfect sense). 3. At its most muted, it more closely resembles a green slate (our #favourite). This shade goes well with other blues and greys. 4. #Teal with navy is so #bold and so #elegant. 5. A teal sofa with brownish red #accents is lovely and surprisingly #calm. 6. Teal pops with bright white, and its colour wheel match is coral. 7. A very blue teal with very little grey looks stunning with pink and gold accents. 8. Nothing looks quite so good as a gold-framed mirror against a teal #wall. 9. Teal can be both #punchy and loud or #muted and staid 10. It is a #classic that works with nearly any #style, from #eclectic to #traditional “Teal is a great colour to use in your home interiors in a place where you wish to relax and unwind – to regain balance and equilibrium after a hectic busy day”, says Sinead, Interior Designer at Blakely Interiors....See More- PRO

8 years agoLots of bits of colour in our place...
Eg. lounge with bright print from urban artist Pahnl, yellow table, red cables... Also have a few different coloured frames...etc
Kitchen with a few pops in chairs and cupboards and things like the kettle...
Stairs... They are painted a pale blue, and a bit childish but as a kid i did love space invaders, the pendant from Muuto too adds a bit of colour...
It goes on and on... White walls, grey doors and then a few bits of colour.

I am thinking, our blue walls in bedrooms make for a nice contrast to the rest of the rooms and colourful throws and cushions work well with them (stiffkey blue)

8 years agoWe restored and conserved this early 17th century staircase. The decision was made to conserve and keep the original colourful paint to show the patina of 100s of years of use rather than restoring it fully which we feel looks fantastic. New elements that were added such as the finals and panelling were left natural to contrast with the original painted features.
