Colour can change the look of a room and it's even known to positively impact your mood. Pastel wall paint colours are a tried and tested look for spring; they amplify light, they can create the illusion of a more spacious interior and – crucially – remind us of ice cream shades!
Using Pastel Paint Colours:
The modern way to use pastels at home is to throw in an unexpected colour or two, helping you to avoid that Easter egg look, by adding a dark shade or an earthy neutral into the mix works wonders to bring depth and an edge to your space.
We are seeing pastel wall paint being used in every room from the living room to the bedroom and even on kitchen cabinets and while they might be subtle and more muted than deep, rich shades, pastels can really create an impact in your space.
From going all out with an entirely fresh colour scheme to adding in selected statement accessories, let the power of pastels inspire you to transform your walls with colour.
Soft Lilac:
When bold red meets the calmness of blue, we are left with this versatile hue, soft purples feel modern and sophisticated, ground this look by pairing them with rich mulberry and black accents.
Purple tones have positive effects on the mind and body, creating an uplifting energy, adding tranquility to a space, and encouraging creativity and imagination.
Mix in industrial and natural elements such as concrete and wood, which contrast beautifully against pretty pastel lilac wall paint.
Lilac works wells with other pastel wall colours such as mint, sherbet and rose, all this incredible versatility means that you can tailor the shade to suit your space.
