Carnival Time-using bright fabric for high impact

With the Olympics taking place in Rio this year interiors are bound to reflect the colourful carnival atmosphere.

Bring a flavour of this into your home by using bright fabric.

Using bold, bright fabric

Using bold, bright fabric

Bright, bold colours such as hot pink, electric blue, zingy lime and zesty orange are naturally associated with the carnival and can be used to great effect in your home.

Using bright fabric can be daunting especially if you usually choose muted colours but these bold and brash tones can be used as accent colours to inject a feeling of cheerfulness into your room scheme especially when used against a neutral background.

Curtain fabric can be bright and bold featuring tropical birds or a floral fabric and will look great against a bright white backdrop.  Choose some of the colours in the fabric and use for plain cushions or for the colour for the walls. 

For something different use the bold print as an upholstery fabric and use to cover a statement chair, this will add real impact to your room, especially if everything else is in neutral shades.

It’s not easy to mix these bright and bold patterns so it’s best to let the feature fabric take pride of place and have everything else plain.  However, this doesn’t mean that colours should be in pale shades use bright jewel coloured fabric in turquoise, pink and purple for cushions and accessories. 

Clashing colours for impact!

Clashing colours for impact!

Don’t be afraid of using colours that perhaps you might not always think of as co-ordinating well together.  Scarlet red, fuchsia pink and zesty orange can look great together for example when used as a collection of cushions.

 Bright and vibrant carnival colours can be used in any room and in any style of home, where it will bring a feeling of happiness!

 

Jungle print fabric for a touch of the exotic

Brazil is also known for its rainforests and using exotic jungle print fabric is also big news this season.  Botanical fabric with large green leaves create a dramatic backdrop to your room scheme.  Use with a vibrant striped fabric for cushions to add a real wow factor.  Use with lots of white to complete the drama.

Whatever you choose have fun with bright fabric and dramatic prints.
