Orange

Warming up to the thought of using orange in my home after stumbling upon these pictures styled by Stella Nicolaisen.

Love Stella’s controlled use of orange in these living spaces. It’s not too much but is definitely eye catching. I guess, the trick lies in combining orange with mild, washed out colours and keeping it simple.

How do you feel about using Orange in your home?

Orange you glad?
Kidding aside, I love a good pop of orange in my designs. It is warm, uplifting and fun!
And there are so many undertones to play with...

Never knew I was a fan of orange until now! The first picture is my absolute favorite. Great post, you definitely opened my eyes to something I didn't think that I would necessarily like.

Amazing! You really don't think much of using orange for home decor but this gal creates stunning looks with it. I'm actually considering painting my kitchen walls a very rustic orange by applying a faux texture in brown glaze.
