Let your creativity flow with purple

A beautiful blend of calm blue and passionate red, purple represents all the characteristics of creativity: wisdom, independence, courage and confidence.

To stimulate the senses and get your creative juices flowing, try painting your study space, library or bedroom a rich, powerful shade of purple, such as aubergine, indigo or rich plum. If all-purple walls aren’t your style, combine softer shades of lavender and violet with creams and beiges to create an elegant, calming feel.

Purple’s connection with both blue and red also make it the perfect colour for both boys’ and girls’ bedrooms. Paint one wall a bright shade of purple for a special eye-catching feature or make a neutral colour scheme pop with violet accessories and soft furniture and cushions. Now, that’s what we call creativity.
