Subtle and seductive, natural and yet exquisitely refined \u2013 this is a heartening colour that can bring a hint of paradise to any room or scheme.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545835736927{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Below are some curated examples of living coral that have been inspiring the Kassavello team over the past few days together with some of the techniques that we believe exemplify how colour can be utilised to create impact in any space.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545835822660{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Using form and texture to amplify your colour choice.<\/strong> By this we mean that the decision to apply colour to a strong graphical piece of furniture with clean linear lines can carry a very different emotional impact to the same colour application on a soft curved piece of upholstery. Simultaneously the choice of fabric or material can amplify or soften the poignancy of colour choice. Here our Andesine armchair is fully upholstered in sumptuous velvet instantly intensifying the charisma and celebratory expression of living coral\u2019s utopian promise.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2168″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” qode_css_animation=”” link=”https:\/\/www.kassavello.com\/products\/armchairs\/andesin-armchair”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545835885707{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Selecting a backdrop to add drama and emotional impact to your space.\u00a0<\/b>In order to maximise the impact of colour in a room consider using it as a large backdrop against more neutral pieces of statement furniture. \u00a0Walls, ceilings, floors and even screens can transform the emotional ambience of a space and simultaneously serve to showcase the craftsmanship and detail of key pieces. \u00a0Here a coral wall helps to create a sociable and joyful setting whilst highlighting the sleek lines of the Collins chair and subtle detailing of the Miles table lamp. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”2169″ img_size=”large” onclick=”custom_link” qode_css_animation=”” link=”https:\/\/www.kassavello.com\/products\/chairs”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545835936837{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Equally impactful is the bold coral tone of the Biombo screen \u2013 an unflinching piece of styling that can transform the look and feel of a zone or corner within the home and immediately draws a lively response.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”2170,2171″ img_size=”large” onclick=”custom_link” custom_links=”#E-8_aHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cua2Fzc2F2ZWxsby5jb20lMkZwcm9kdWN0cyUyRmFjY2Vzc29yaWVzJTJGYmlvbWJvJTJDaHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cua2Fzc2F2ZWxsby5jb20lMkZwcm9kdWN0cyUyRmFybWNoYWlycw==”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1545836339230{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Colour as art.\u00a0<\/b>Rugs are increasingly being seen as a leading and critical component of contemporary schemes, frequently used as a tool to ground the colour scheme of a room and thereby creating a distinctive emotional impression as soon as you enter the space. \u00a0The incorporation of a playful colour such as living coral into floor art or traditional wall art ensures that the power of colour within a space is immediate. Fusing that colour with dynamic shapes and forms draws the eye in further thereby maximising the impact as illustrated in Rug Society\u2019s Simba rug.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_gallery interval=”3″ images=”2172,2173″ img_size=”large” onclick=”custom_link” custom_links=”#E-8_aHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3cua2Fzc2F2ZWxsby5jb20lMkZwcm9kdWN0cyUyRnJ1Z3MlMkNodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRnd3dy5rYXNzYXZlbGxvLmNvbSUyRnByb2R1Y3RzJTJGc3Rvb2xz”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1574094650353{padding-top: 3% !important;padding-bottom: 3% !important;}”]Many of Kassavello\u2019s pieces are available to customize in living coral or another colour of your choice.
