Friday Thoughts...Summertime and the Living is Easy


Summer is on the horizon!

Even if the weather hasn’t quite got the memo, we believe summer is just around the corner and what a glorious interior season it is!

The Summer Colour Palette

The summer interior season is tranquil and classical, full of soft muted colours and feminine floral patterns. Beautiful blush pinks, sage greens, lilac, airforce blue, ochre and pale greys feature here, and make for a relaxing range of colours when placed alongside neutral, natural materials such as rattan, wood and sisal. Think of the beautiful English countryside all wrapped up in one room.

Do you feel a connection to the ‘Summer Colour Palette’?


If you feel a connection to the summer season, then you may like the following brands, who are well know for their summer colour palettes: Nina Campbell, Designers Guild, Colefax & Fowler, Jane Churchill and GP & J Baker. The wallpaper and fabric designs produced by these designers showcase a wide range of summer styles and patterns for you to choose from.


Summer is all about long, warm days spent lounging in the sun and, while you down tools and relax, it’s the perfect time to reflect on your current home interiors and think about any changes you would like to make to your home.


And, if you’re not sure where to start or how to create a beautiful summer style for your home, then a K Interiors' styling session could be the perfect solution.

Summer Palette Key Points

In common with all four seasons, you don’t have to inject radical change for your home to look and feel different and reflect the summer season. Consider making a few small changes – perhaps paint the woodwork, chimney breast or fireplace, change your bedding, bed throws and cushions or introduce a new rug and some seasonal accessories. 

Any alterations you make will breathe new life into your space and allow you to really appreciate your home environment.


Summer Palette Key Points

🔹Classical, muted and tranquil in style

 🔹Feminine, floral prints and patterns to reflect how you feel during the long, lazy summer days

🔹 Use of wood and other natural materials in pale tones to bring the outside inside

 🔹Coastal and soft country styling


Are you a summer person? How does the summer palette make you feel? For us at K Interiors, it feels like the dwindling sun at the end of a relaxing summer day spent in the English countryside.

Personal Colour Profile

Did you know that, when we visit your home for an Inspire Session, we include an in-depth interior design colour consultation, where we analyse your colour preferences? 


Through this process, you will discover which of the four seasonal palettes you connect with most, in advance of making any decisions about the colour palette you wish to use when refreshing your space.


In this way, rather than following the latest fads or trends, you can have confidence that your interior decor scheme will bring you joy for many years to come.
