Blue will be the most popular accent
colour for interior decorating, and
— believe it or not — it also happens
to be the perfect complement to
Marsala, the 2015 Pantone Colour of
the Year.
Pops of indigo blue or deep navy
will become a stable in home design
this year, as their deep natural hues
become extra vibrant against warm
earth tones.
If you want to go a bit bolder, blue
chairs could add that perfect pop of
blue in your room.

BLUE ACCENT
COLOURS
A throwback to modern
design elements of the
1950s through the 1970s;
that couch you saw on that
1970s family-style sitcom is
officially trendy today.
However, we think these
are the best subtle ways to
do it. First and foremost, a
nice mustard and wooden
chair if you want the 1970s
brought to life in your home
and for a touch of mid-
century sparkle, a funky
mirror is the way to go.
2015 is the year that doesn’t limit you to utilize
silver or stainless steel fixtures. These properties
will give you freedom to mix and match finish
colours, or go bold with all gold.
So that means you can bring out your house
exactly as you’ve always dreamed of doing in
the New Year. We think you should start with the
bathroom — no sink is complete without a gold
faucet. And since it’s officially on-trend to mix
finishes, you may want to consider a bronze-and-
gold gryphon lamp fixture for your living room.
WALLPAPER
Wallpaper is coming back in a big way.
Consumers should expect to see an increase in available
colours and textures in home stores because
everyone’s dying to spice up their wall game.

FIXTURES
Without a doubt, there is nothing
more sophisticated than the cowhide
rag. It is the ideal accent texture for
2015’s modern, yet approachable
design aesthetic. The element of
cowhide is to compliment pillows,
rugs, throw blankets, and even wall
artwork.
