Yellow and contrasting blue are always a hit and depending on the shade, will work for a traditional English or French country look.

Buttermilk yellow and a soft powdery blue give a traditional look, sunny yellow and cornflower blue a Mediterranean look.

If you prefer a harmonious scheme, look for colours that lie next to yellow on the colour wheel such as green which makes a good accent colour.

Team a strong accent colour such as warm red with yellow but use it sparingly or it will overpower the scheme.

Bring a welcoming glow into your home with the many warm and cheerful shades of yellow. With universal appeal yellow will lift the mood of any room.

What Shade? Whatever the shade yellow will brighten any room.

Blue is far and away the most popular colour for home decorators. There is a trend towards mid-tone blues that evoke feelings of warm tropical waters such as turquoise.

What Shade? Vary the shade to suit the style of the room.

Pastel blues tend to look sweet and pretty so they work nicely in nurseries.

Smoky blue-greys supply traditional backdrops for classic furnishings.

Deep navy blues form dramatic backdrops for modern, sophisticated spaces yet they combine well with work-shirt chambray for kids rooms and spaces.

Mid-tone blues, such as cornflower establish a country mood.

What Shade? Reds can be used in a broad range of colours to dress interiors classic and contemporary.

Chinese or Ming red (a red/orange) works in traditional or Asian inspired interiors.

Pure red provides a playful punch in contemporary settings.

Burgundy is a classic choice for traditional interiors, supplying a rich stage for formal furnishings.

Purple-shaded reds are edgy, well suited to apartments and clean lined contemporary spaces.

Spice up your life with a
room full of red. It’s warm, exciting, lively and powerful.

But be warned - it’s not for the timid. However, it’s comforting to know a
red can work on just one wall.

What Shade? Neutral colours can be tailored to suit a variety of themes.

Be bold with neutrals and add a dash of aqua for a room that is as fresh as it is sophisticated.

By adding a pretty floral print fabric in matching shades you have a classic country garden theme.

Jazz up the floor with a colourful tribal rug in earthy tones. Pick out a colour or two and repeat them in accessories dotted around the room.

Neutral colours can be tailored to suit a variety of themes. The neutral range from creams to caramels are a sure-fire way to create an up-market look within budget.

Use light creams for classic looks or
warmer colours to set off mid-tone
accents. Pale neutrals look fabulous
with cherry blossom pink and sage greens.
