Tips to create a monochromatic space
Play with grey
Timeless, stylish and classic, a grey on grey colour palette works in any kind of home. Ranging from soft off-white through to deep moody tones, grey offers a neutral, blank canvas that’s perfect for styling with pops of colour.
Tip: Greyscale can vary from grey/beige (known as greige) tones with brown undertones through to cooler blue-hued colours. It’s important to always test your colour at home to ensure it appears as you intended.
Blue hue
Reminiscent of seascapes or wide open skies, blue is a colour primed for calm. There’s a blue for every mood, whether your shade is a rich, deep navy, proud royal or bright electric.
Tip: Layer variations of the one shade through soft furnishings like bed linens alongside decorative accessories like artwork and vases.
Keen for green
The colour of nature and the great outdoors, green tones create a relaxing, calming oasis. Soft sage greens meet deep emeralds in a spectrum that’s versatile and can work across a number of different room types.
Tip: Add to your green theme by introducing a variety of indoor plants — not only do they look great but they come with the added benefit of improving a room’s air quality!
Down to earth
Natural, earthy brown tones like taupe, tan and beige are gentle and grounding. Palettes in these colours connect us to the earth and soothe the senses. Deeper browns like chocolate and toffee work well to create a warm ambience.
Tip: Layer earthy hues with natural textures like linen, cotton and clay.
