'2 Became 1'

'2 BECAME 1'...!!!!

My inspiration......


 Double Complementary Scheme - blue, blue green, orange, red orange. 

Double complementary are made 'mostly' 
by two hues next to each other on the colour wheel 
and their complementary colour's opposite.
In my look I have made the blue green more dominant 
just like the photograph.
 The orange, red orange and blue are my contrast colours.
 Together they are vibrant and lively, just like
the little fish amongst the coral who is 
 my inspiration for this blog entry. 
In the photograph the soft fingers of blue green coral
 amongst the solid sea rocks
 depicts harmony through texture, which I have combined into my look. 
The little fish swims by unaware on how he blends 
in and complements the underwater background.







The Look......

 The kitchen, living room and hallway
 all link together by colour
 to show harmony through progression within each area.
Note that the main colour is blue green,
but adding furniture & accessories in orange, red orange and blue to each area 

brings a cohesive look to all three rooms.

The brick wall in the kitchen picks up the orange & blue tints and tactile texture
of the rock (next to the coral in the photograph).
The swaying finger like coral's texture is linked to the shaggy rug
in the lounge and the art work on the wall.
By adding tactile aspects like the heavy metal console, (which reminds me of
a boat wreck on the sea floor)
the drift wood mirror and the coral effect candle holder in the
hallway unifies the harmony through texture in all three spaces.

I chose this blue green and white patterned cushion
to compliment the orange armchair
you can but this here

As blue and orange are complementary colours
I added this cushion to the orange armchair.
It's velvet feel reminds me of the velvety look of the coral

With its retro charm this Mod armchair will fit 
into any interior, the colour is bright, just like the fish!

The metal construction and rivets of this console reminds of
pieces of shipwrecks you would find at the bottom of the sea bed
in amongst the coral and rocks
you can buy this here

Beautiful candle holder which reminds me of coral
you can get this here 

This gorgeous rustic wooden mirror leaning on the
console unifies all three pieces in the hallway, giving it a rustic nautical look

This figaro stool picks up the red orange pop of colour nicely
and is a contrast in front of the blue green panel on the kitchen island

This clock is just so quirky and uncanny..... in that it
unifies all the colours in all the rooms
you can buy this clock here

Lovely blue drinking glasses
can be bought here

The blue green pendant glass
picks out the colour scheme well
and they are decorative
but not overpowering in statement
can be purchased here 

Beautiful red orange pendant lamps,  would not look out of  
place if 3 of these over hanged over the kitchen island.
They can be bought here

Add a luxe shag rug to any living room and it
oozes warmth and the urge to run your fingers
through it just like the coral in the photo 
(although I am sure that is not encouraged)
you can buy the rug here

Enjoy creating this look......
