ABOUT TRENDS colour, style
Choosing Colour is one of the more exciting activities associated with home decorating
however it is often not easy.
‘Follow the Fashion?'
Following Fresh New Trends, is relatively easy to do because of other people's use of everything associated with them, colour charts, construction materials, furniture & furnishings, products for the home, etc, however there is limited personal choice in this method.
A current Trend is of using hard materials & colours, (some may say giving a "masculine look") which undoubtably has appeal to many
However, If you would prefer to surround yourself with soft shapes, & warm colours, your opinion should be your influencer rather than what is 'ON TREND'?
'Trendy'
By definition it means something fleeting, brief, exciting. but it is a puzzling notion because just beyond the 'New', there lurks the undesirable destination of 'Dated', the potential reality for anything associated with it
Of course some trends last longer than others & many make a return or become classic - look at mid century modern & green, & orange.
Personal Choice - The point is >>> What you like is not wrong for you.
(whether trendy/classic or other style or colour scheme)
If you adore a new idea, 'Trend', by all means embrace it, however do be careful with startling new concepts that possibly will date, or that you will quickly tire of - 'that trendy, bright hugely expensive furniture that warms your heart right now, might just start to annoy you long before you want to replace it.'
One reason why 'classic style' appeals to so many is the fact that its elements last & don't need to be replaced or updated so often.
Endless Possibilities
We have evolved to see colour in our surroundings & nature has given us plenty of beautiful hues >
azure daytime sky, red sky at sunset,
turquoise sea, sometimes midnight blue or all tints & shades of grey,
we notice flowers & trees far more exuberant than a rainbow,
earth that can be ochre, rocky rich brown or sandy sable,
we see persimmon orange & lemon yellow &
endless varieties of colourful birdlife (e,g. the sumptuous peacock blue)
Any colour can be demure or dazzling , as a feature or as an accent given the right treatment
So
Don't limit choice - be your own adviser when it comes to choosing something you could adore living with. It's Your bliss.
