As the first signs of spring with new growth peeking through the ground and the stretch in the evening light is much welcomed, Colourtrend’s Mallow Stem is being celebrated as this month’s colour of the month.
This beautiful, calm mauve colour mirrors the seasons transition that celebrates something new with its natural, pastel tones.
Evoking feelings of romance and nostalgia, mauve is an inimitable tone with lots of delicate softness. While it hasn’t been a colour of focus in recent years, we are starting to see that change. A traditional colour with a light combination of both pink and purple and warm rosy hues, it provides the perfect backdrop for Irish light.
It is a sophisticated, interesting take on the more standard hues of violet and blush which are used more frequently in interiors and its dusted grey undertones come to the fore when paired with sharp brass or brushed steel accents. This is where Mallow Stem really comes to life. The purple hues tend to occur seldom in nature and as such are looked upon as rare and intriguing.
As working from home is a trend that looks like it is here to stay, the shift towards softer neutral colour palettes will continue into 2021. The importance of creating a space of solace and calm to work comfortably and productively in has become more important than ever, with colour acting as an essential tool in accomplishing that balance to our interiors. When used in the right space, and designed by the right pair of hands, mauve hues like Mallow Stem can create an inviting and timeless space.
