We love seeing children’s rainbow pictures in windows.
In these challenging of times, rainbows can represent a sense of hope and optimism.
And we think they can be a source of inspiration for an interior design scheme!
Rainbow Colours
What if you want all the colours of the rainbow in your home?
Then use them all with a neutral white backdrop, for a fabulous, uplifting look to a living room.
And what about this storage idea?
These colours should make you smile when come to sort it out!
Bookcases
Colour co-ordinating your book spines is a common way to give a rainbow effect to your bookshelves.
But it appears that not everyone is a fan. As the adventurer and TV presenter Ben Fogle found to his cost, after posting a photo of his bookcase on Instagram.
We say, “why not”?
If you love books and you’ve got enough to make the look work, it can be a great way to add curated colour and a sense of order to your colour scheme.
Coloured Panels
A fun and easy way to add rainbow colours to a child’s bedroom for example, would be to use panelling.
Make sure the colours are of the same family, ie: earthy or clear, to get a cohesive look.
Our student Katie was inspired by the colours of the rainbow and the designer Matthew Williamson, to create this stunning mood board.
