Redecorating my living room and have just bought this sofa (duck egg colour). Walls are strong white (looks light grey) with white skirting boards and I already have a grey sofa.

I need a pop of colour for accessories etc...but need inspiration.

Any ideas? 🙏🏼

Contrasting would be pale mustardy yellow, or burnt orange

Harmonious would be dusky purples, mauves, pinks, lavenders,

Tonal would be darker teal blues

Or add in a neutral like taupe, mushroom

So anything you want really!

I had a duck egg/ pale blue / grey lounge and furniture scenario and put a dark loud purple feature wall in it was mulberry burst by dulux, I absolutely loved it and it looked fab. Then I met dp who had an aversion to all things purple, when he moved in it was changed next time we decorated. Still miss it.

Love the sound of the purple! I'm not so brave to add it as a feature wall (yet) but will look for some accessories as a starting point. 😜

Thank you!

We've got duck egg with white walls. Have some navy accessories and mustard yellow velvet cushions.
