Looking for a way to bring instant energy, warmth, and personality into your space?

Consider the beauty of fruit colours. Think lemon, lime, raspberry and orange – these juicy hues can transform a neutral room into a vibrant and inviting space with a robust and appealing “punch” of colour.

Looking for ways to infuse fruit inspired colours? First, choose a colour for inspiration.

Orange brings luxury and warmth while lime adds freshness and energy. Lemon will add a sense of light and raspberry offers a chic, eclectic touch

Start with a neutral base

Fruit colours shine brightest when they’re grounded by a calm, neutral backdrop. Let your walls, flooring or main upholstery pieces set a neutral foundation so that vibrant, fruit colors can take center stage. Think soft white walls, pale floors or muted upholstery, then pair with bright pops of color.

Layer your fruit palette

Just like a mixed fruit salad, combining multiple hues can be deliciously effective. Deep orange and lime create a modern, sunny look. Raspberry paired with lime and orange can create a modern, sunny look that feels fresh and uplifting.

Think beyond accessories

Fruit colours aren’t just for throw pillows or vases. Try a raspberry accent chair, a citrus-hued rug, or lime green cabinetry in a kitchen or laundry room. Even in a lower-level living space, a pop of lime with a splash of orange can instantly make the area feel brighter, warmer and more inviting. – Tribune News Service
