A Fresh Look for Spring

The cover of the April Issue of House Beautiful shows a living room alive with welcoming buttercup yellow and touches of cornflower blue, showing how to create a fresh new look for Spring. Using the classic combination of blue and yellow, the designers have opted for Farrow and Ball’s Day Room Yellow Estate for warm sunny walls, combined with white painted furniture for a bright Spring look. They recommend using light sky blue fabrics for window dressings, and coordinating cushions on a chic white sofa.

�Using our Chelsea Armchair (above) as a recommended buy, House Beautiful advise that “if you’re investing in an armchair, choose a comfy design in a plain fabric that will stand the test of time.” They combine our Ocean Blue Armchair with a simple white throw from Ikea, and a pretty blue square cushion by Lisa Stickley.

Pale blue upholstery and white furnishings complete the look. A Burlington Dresser Smallprovides a compact, stylish storage solution, whilst the Newport Coffee Table is perfect for slightly smaller spaces.
