How To Get The Blues – The Essential Shade For 2017

The hue of your window covering alters the way light diffuses through it; this blue - grey denim shade gives a fresh through fabric vertical blinds with a sleek modern style.

A large expanse of a solid colour like this Duette® Shade appears more integrated when mirrored in a similar shade and scale by the rug.

Natural fibres lend themselves to this hue, with the washed out denim feel. Look for accessories such as oversize tablecloths or napkins; as an added bonus the creases compliment the informal feel.

Day and night blinds allow you to measure the amount of light you filter and change up the intensity of the colour to suit the time of day; the deeper blue is richer for a dinner setting versus the pretty pale light of the sheer morning blinds.

With its grey base, blue can be used as a more striking way to keep a muted scheme interesting than relying on beiges and creams.

The woven quality of these roller blinds stops them from looking blocky and breaks up plain modern walls. It also allows dappled shapes from trees to bring the relaxing harmony of the outside in.

The colour blue is a great backdrop to enliven with everything graphic pattern, ticking or blousy florals as it manages to give them a laid-back surfer edge.

If you want to keep it to solids, use yellow as a highlight or some pretty contrasting copper in cushion piping or door handles.
