Dusty, soft colours appear as accents in the natural environment, but these pretty hues
are far too beautiful to use only as accents in the home. Pale, soft and soothing, they are easy
and comfortable to live with and can be enjoyed in a wholehearted manner.

Creating harmony
Developing a soft and gentle colour scheme is quite easy,
as the different shades in this colour spectrum tend to be
harmonious and will give you an up-to-date interior that
is comfortable to live in. You can either embrace the look
wholeheartedly by choosing furnishings in toning colours,
or introduce contrasting darker hues. A gentle scheme is
traditionally romantic and can feel quite feminine, but if
you accessorise it with contemporary furniture and
objects, you can make the look more neutral.

ASOFTPALETTE
Soft colours always make
me feel calm, contented and
relaxed. There is nothing
offensive or aggressive about
them; they are simply soothing,
uplifting and inviting.
