RETREAT
“Warm whites, neutrals and dusty blues with tones of burgundy and deep ocean blue.”
Warm whites, neutrals and dusty shades of greens, browns and blues create a balanced Retreat color palette. It may evoke not only some nostalgic feelings, but also is a palette of refuge. While a big part of the world works remotely and everything is so unstable, the best way to feel reassured is to surround with calm colours and create soothing refuge.
Bedroom is one of the best rooms to apply colours without fear.
