Colour - are you brave enough?
I am seeing a lot of this acid yellow/green colour(and other OTT brights) in fashion this year and now it's popping up in interiors. Now I happen to think that it's very hard to wear this colour and even harder to decorate with it unless you style your rooms like this home owner. A lot of white, a lot of bright sunlight, simple furnishings and a heavy feminine flair to keep it from looking punky or pop-arty. The other thing I notice is that there are some pretty coloured accessories and art on the walls but they are mostly kept to the white walls - and the coloured walls are kept bare - perhaps that's the secret. What do you think? Would you do this acid green/yellow colour blocking in your home? Images are from the Bed of Flowers Bed and Breakfast in Holland(via www.ffffound.com).
