white & grey interiors....

It isn't perhaps the most obvious but having come across these stunning images - white and grey really can work very well together.

In particular I love the images taken from San Dominico House in Italy which shows how grey can be used as an alternative in adding colour to the traditional whitewashed buildings. You see a lot of blues & greens but seldom grey.. it works as a nice alternative I think.

In contemporary spaces of course grey has much more prominence in colour palettes but with a little bit of imagination it doesn't have to be drab and masculine.. combined with white it can be crisp and very kind on the eye.

Colour, colour, colour - it needs little explanation and speaks volumes without the need to mutter a word.

These images all from Mexico show how anything goes really! The use of vibrant colours somehow lifts the spirits of all around and creates a warm and inviting feeling.

I particularly like the pink and red - you need to brave to pull this off but as the other images show with a little imagination the sky is the limit...

Today is all about pink.

Pink is one of my favourite colours and I wanted to share with you some images that illustrate how pink can be used in a tasteful way - Pink doesn't necessarily have to be girly girly.....
