Punchy Purple Interiors

My passion for white is sometimes called to question when I see beautiful purple bedrooms which really pack a punch! Who'd have thought of using purple in an older style of home and yet it works beautifully. Despite the fact the purple can often make room dark and gloomy by choosing various shades and keeping the floor light chic style can easily be achieved.


Full length purple curtains look stunning against the chocolate brown walls and coordinate beautifully with lilac and lavender bedding. I also think that it's fundamental to good interior design to incorporate a variety of textures. Opposites work well for fabrics and materials as well as colour choices. Look for cotton duvet sets and use a soft velour bed throw; if the floor is carpeted use wooden furniture, giving the soft-hard opposites; tactile fabrics will also make a bedroom look more welcoming and homely.

You should also think about which fabrics make you feel safe – in much the same way as a child finds a comforter such as a corner of a blanket or a soft toy. This psychologically provides a safe environment in which to sleep – you may not consciously think along these lines and yet the type of bedding materials you select can say a a lot about your sense of harmony and contentment.

Punchy purple interiors make a welcome change from the more usual bedroom colour schemes of beige and more beige! Be daring and try packing a punch in your bed room by using purple as your colour scheme/
