|| COLOUR PALETTE 1 | AMBER

During the first part of the year, when the Christmas decorations have been packed away, rooms can seem flat and dull. Soft furnishings, ornaments, flowers and lighting are an easy way to inject warmth and enliven a scheme.

This is the first of my suggested colour palettes using warm yellow ochres, rich amber, gold set against metal greys of zinc, pewter and nickel. These are easily teamed with oyster beige and whites enabling them to fit into any neutral scheme.

KEY ELEMENTS:
1.Textures: furs, cracked and scratched surfaces, velvet, silk
2.Patterns: geodes, rock strata, crystals, reptile, woodgrain
3.Finishes: gilded and reflective surfaces, translucence, lustre, matt and dry finishes
