I've felt quite inspired by masculine-meeting-feminine spaces this week; from the sophisticated and colourful designs of Nate Berkus, to the fun my style challenge ran by Ally. So, I decided to make this week's colour cocktail on a combo that worked perfectly in such spaces. I love both of these shades - on their own or as a combo, but the latter really helps to bring each partner alive. Don't you think the grey makes the yellow pop and the yellow makes the grey look deep, thoughtful and comforting? This is the kinda colour cocktail you'd expect to see in a high-end Manhattan hotel with a room over looking the park and the glistening lights and yellow cabs below acting as an extension of the scheme. I'm going to dream of this over the weekend...whatever you do, I hope you have a great time and see you next week. x

LOVE this combo AND speaking of hotels I was just at a resort in Boca Raton Florida that was just redesigned and it had this exact color scheme! It was so refreshing and looked fantastic against the beach.

ReplyDeleteYellow and grey were the colours of my school uniform, so I am scarred - but this looks great, especially the yellow that is almost chartreuse, with the stripes.
ReplyDeleteWoohoo - here too! Loved your inspiration pic over at Ally's (pop over to my blog and see mine if you have a moment). And your wish list over at Lana's. Might need to check out that camera!
