Blue is Back

We’ve always loved blue, but have to admit that the green takeover in the late 90’s was a breath of fresh air.  Fast forward 15 years and blue seems to have blown back into our lives, bringing with it vitality, energy, solidarity, and a bit of rebellion.  Read on for insights on the hue from Freshome.

“Blue is without a doubt a massive trend this year.  From home design exhibitions to the catwalk, we’re seeing it everywhere.  It’s all  about blue, and don’t be shy about sticking to one shade either.  Different shades rolling back into each other in the same room will ignite the senses.  Azure, beryl, teal, cobalt, sapphire; a cerulean of blue, folding back into themselves in an ocean of electric design.  Apart from turquoise which I cover in a later point, the other shade of blue which has gained popular traction is navy.  A calming, shade which commands authority without appearing desperate; easy and pleasant on the eye, this is one you can’t go wrong with in 2014: Navy is vogue.  Use it in accessories, soft furnishings, couches, cushions, cupboards, walls and anywhere else you can imagine it.  We’re seeing it everywhere, We’re seeing it in the design sphere: Blue is big in 2014.”
