For colour-loving décor enthusiasts who are searching for the perfect home upgrade, there’s nothing quite like a pop of refreshing lilac. As we prepare for Summer 2016, soft purple hues are set to reign supreme and usher femininity and beauty into the home. Whether your humble abode is a spacious suburban property or a cramped downtown apartment, the look of lilac can immediately breathe new life into any room. This season, take the following décor ideas into account as you rejuvenate your space in true style.
Bring a funky lilac fridge into a black and white kitchen: For a truly unexpected burst of colour, add a quirky element to your kitchen in the form of a pastel purple fridge. Try contrasting your cool and modern new appliance with striking black and white checkered floors, cream-coloured cabinets and beige countertops. Meanwhile, wooden bar stools are the perfect accessory to your interior design statement.

Decorate your living room with a pale lilac sofa and hints of soft grey: In the living room, lilac furnishings can look absolutely gorgeous when contrasted against dove grey accents. To create an inviting space, try accessorizing a plush lilac-coloured sofa with dark blue accent pillows and a grey throw blanket. For a finishing touch, a grey area rug, light wooden floors and a sleek copper coffee table instantly wrap up the space.

Turn to monochromatic shades of lilac paired with printed accent pillows: If you’re truly in love with the shade, create warmth with a comfy sofa in a darker shade of lilac. Adorn your new couch with an array of purple and white patterned pillows, and use a lilac ottoman in a lighter shade to lend a cozy effect. Staying true to the colour scheme, a variety of potted violets, white and purple printed wallpaper and a coordinating striped accent rug complete the look.
