Nothing helps us shake off the winter blues faster than a hot pop of color. This spring, it’s all about integrating sunny shades of coral to wake up our decor. This blushing blend conjures tropical fruits and summery frocks while adding a bit of brightness to tired rooms. Classic, yet fresh, it’s a surprisingly versatile color that works anywhere. It’s all in how you style it.
Get fresh
Pair coral with pinks, metallic finishes and bold graphics, like our striped indoor/outdoor rug, to punch up your look.
Go classic
Layer in splashes of coral with creamy whites and pretty pastels for a sweet yet sophisticated feel. We’re crushing on our new floral fabric by the yard.
Toughen up
Balance the peachy-pink hue by teaming it with heavy textures, dark finishes and caramels. Our frog knot pillow adds just a touch of coral without the commitment.

With coastal colors how would you bring Tan navy blue and gray together

Martha,
You might add a little touch of a lighter blue — something more watery. Like a spa or aqua. Use it as an accent color in art, in a patterned rug, or just as accessories!

Where can I buy the turquoise and parchment cushion covers on the sofa in Go Classic?
Caroline @ How to Decorate
Hi Isabella,
Unfortunately the pillow covers you’re asking about are discontinued. We’re so sorry! We do have some similar covers here though.

I’m in a dilemma… Recently moved into my new home and repaint every where then my sofa came.
My living room is painted in tapestry beigh from Benjamin Moore and my sectional sofa turns out to be a tainted light grey-ivory. (yep I taught it would be ivory-white but not).
My probs is what accessories or wall decor colours should I used to blend in the area making it look contemporary style? The hall way is grey which is beside the living room
