Embrace the real appeal of teal

If your heart sings at the thought of being surrounded by soothing shades of blue and green, teal may just be the colour your home has been waiting for. Whether you love paler peacock shades or a richer jewel-toned hue, versatile teal can adapt to take on a look that is traditional, retro or highly contemporary.

Try a teal accent wall to create a feeling of opulence. For a pop of excitement, team teal with orange, coral pinks or even gold. Or, if subtle colour is more your thing, pair teal accessories like a statement rug or vibrant cushions with taupe walls or furniture. Teal really stands out against bright white, but also makes a statement when paired with cream, navy, pale grey and the natural hues of timber.
