As winter approaches, use warmer tones and combine complementary hues to create a place for relaxation. Explore our four comforting schemes:
Walls: Basalt, Stool: Orange Aurora
Embrace Darker Tones
Don't be afraid to embrace darker shades, especially in rooms where warmth is an important factor like the bedroom and bathroom. By using a deep, inky colour like 'Basalt' in an all-over scheme, you can create an encompassing, wrap-around feel that exudes cosiness.
Wallpaper: 'Camellia - Smalt', Walls & Woodwork: 'Smalt'
Add A Textural Element
Combine a luxurious wallpaper pattern with a complementary colour on walls and woodwork for a seamless, harmonious look.

Use A Natural Palette
Warm, stone colours can be used in combination for a tonal effect. Use a contrasting shade on woodwork to ground the scheme. Here, the 'Portland Stone' Colour Scales family is used in different strengths.
Ceiling: PiqueWalls: Jewel Beetle
Dresser: Chocolate Colour
Use Rich Jewel Tones
Deep, sumptuous jewel tones like 'Puck' and 'Jewel Beetle' can be used in an all-over scheme to create immediate impact and warmth. Pair 'Jewel Beetle' with dark, rich shades such as 'Chocolate Colour' and use delicate, pale greens in place of white for ceilings and trim.
