Don’t be scared of using orange in your home, in fact it should be quite the opposite, you should be consciously trying to introduce it to your life if it’s not already there. It's a high energy, luminous and gregarious colour that creates a warming atmosphere and flatters skin tones.
I recently had a rental flat with an orange dining room. In fact being owned by a dreadlocked buddist with a yoga fetish the entire flat was orange however, we chose to paint most of the rooms a less Halloween-esq colour. I soon grew to love the orange dining room though as it instantly gave the room a warm sense of security. Something about the orange made people relax and open up, the perfect combination for dinner parties.
I’m not suggesting you all go and paint your rooms orange but it’s definitely a good colour to have in your house, so here’s a few suggestions of how.
Orange looks even better when illuminated giving off a light similar to a sunset, this lamp from BoConcept would do that beautifully.
This mug from The Conran Shop is the perfect excuse to get orange into your kitchen
For the more daring orange users check out this pouf from Skitsch, very unique and would instantly be the centre of any room, you cant help but want to touch it.
I love this Czech chair from Twenty Twentyone, so interesting to look at and of course a great colour.
This vintage looking sign from Rockett St. George would be great as a bold simple use of orange
