Red Venetian Blinds
Choose a red venetian blind for a flamboyant and striking statement blind. Dependant on the shade of red you choose, red can be used as a fiery and exciting colour, if you were to opt for the brighter shades of red, on the other end of the scale red can evoke a fabulous and grand decor when moody and deep shades of red are used. All together making red a very popular choice as it portrays a vibrant, lavish and fresh surrounding.
Use deep or bright reds with blacks to repeat a great and timeless combination, imagine a sumptuous black leather sofa being overlooked by a deep cherry red. Alternatively pair deep reds up with bright oranges and umber browns to create an earthy and vibrant feel. A bright pillar-box red would look especially gorgeous teamed up with neutrals such as creams and whites. Also remember that red works especially well with warm coloured furniture such as warm oak, imagine a red venetian blind hovering above a warm oak dressing table.
Red is a fantastic colour for motivating and energising, interestingly it stimulates blood flow and therefore acts as a fantastic antidote for lethargy. Red is known as a passionate colour and is renowned as the ‘colour of love’ for its passionate and fiery qualities. This is repeated in many cultures around the world, for instance the red stripes used in the American flag are there to represent courage and passion.
