Just a quick look at some fabrics I recently presented to a new client for their master bedroom:

We’re also using this picture as inspiration for a furniture makeover in the space:

I love the fresh feel of aqua paired with orange. Although it can be a really playful color palette, it can also work in more sophisticated spaces. Here’s a few great examples that I found:





PS—Don’t forget today is the last day to enter the pillow or table runner giveaway from Saffron Marigold!











Wow it's going to be beautiful! I love the orange and aqua together. Great fabrics as well. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteTwo colors opposite the color wheel always make each other look better.
ReplyDelete♥♥♥ the colors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great color combination. It is always refreshing to see this color palette.

Love this color combo especially when it's sophisticated - like the look you're trying to create!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying the different patterns together, always have loved aqua. Only like light touches of orange in my spaces, like a bowl of oranges or copper in an accessory. Your photos highlight its fun and fresh potential.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful color palette! Such great choices on the fabrics. I can't wait to see the finished product.
ReplyDeleteI automatically think of Toby Fairley's design when I see your color scheme. I know the room will come out beautifully. Looking forward to see the finished room.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I am hosting an exciting giveaway and the lucky winner will get to receive a $75 gift card from Arcadian Lighting. Don't miss it. :)

It is fresh and unusual, so it should create a unique space! Fun!
ReplyDeleteThis makes me want to do a room in aqua and orange...its so fresh and uplifting...how can you not be happy in a room like that? Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYes these colors make me smile!! Cant wait to see the finished results!
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the Heirloom fabric collection from Joel Dewberry? Beautiful mix of aqua and orange!
ReplyDeleteI love this colour combo and have been thinking quite a bit about it lately. I also think that throwing in a charcoal grey would be really elegant. Kind of pulling it away from the "I live at the beach" look it might take on sometimes.
ReplyDeleteLove this color combo! I was just on kathysue's blog telling her that I'm using turquoise and green with pops of coral or orange!
ReplyDeleteHappy that I'm seeing it pop up everywhere now! I guess I should get a move on it, huh?!
Love your work!
Ah, this color combo is amazing! You've got such a great eye. You're right...it's so fresh! I think that combination of fabric choices are right on. Just enough pattern and color.

ReplyDeleteLove the patterns you've pulled together!
ReplyDeletegorgeous - of course we understand! i'd appreciate the courtesy were I your paying client :D
ReplyDeletelike a fresh summer punch!
ReplyDeleteEmily I am sure your client will be delighted with your combination of colors and fabrics. I just did a post on the color mint and orange yesterday. I am seeing more and more of this combination being used. Beautiful complimentary color scheme. I am not an orange gal, but I can appreciate it when it is done well like this, Kathysue
ReplyDeleteI adore the colors your chosen for the porject, very pretty. Looks so fresh!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I've been looking for inspiration for a certain room and I think I just found it! Thanks. P.S. With ikat so big, why haven't I seen more shower curtains in a great ikat print? Just wondering outloud.
ReplyDeleteVery fresh! Those colors together feel bright and refreshing! Can't wait to see the space!

Love the color combo! Trying to see if there's a room in my house that could use this:)
ReplyDeleteMarvelous mixture of aqua and orange colour, it is best for attraction. Well, any two colors opposite the color wheel always make each other look better. I like your arrangement and planing to do at my new home.
