Colour palette
Sydney architect Scott Weston is well known for his innovative use of colour. His renovation of a Victorian-era terrace is a sea of colour . And what colour! My favourite colour palette at the moment is red and pale blue with accents of black and white.

That is some gorgeous reno job in the first 4 photos!!! Blue and red is such a pretty combination - one of my favs. And that carpet in the first 3 photos is amazing! This is a great example of how colour can realy work to liven up a space and add personality.
Fun, fun

i love the idea of the pale blue, red, black and white. we're doing pale blue, red and white but dark blue instead =( great finds as always!
Jhayne, I hope you will be posting pics on your blog when you're done! (Love the idea of dark blue instead of black - it's different - but strange coming from you!)
And it appears Pink finds these pics to be fun. :)
These images of blue/red interiors are fabulous. There's a mid-century inspired chair at Room&Board that I love (but really only in blue), and even if I could afford it, I keep thinking of whether it would work in a room with a lot of red. So, photos like these give me ideas.
Sara, I figure as long as it's not the only blue thing in the room, you're good to go. A couple accessories in a similar blue would help tie it in. Glad our photos can help!
