Warm Blue Colour at www.japanese-home-gardens.com

Walls have been kept plain and pale - huge windows let the sun stream in so colour isn't needed to boost brightness. The warm blue colour honey tones of wood give the room a rustic, natural feel, while yellow and blue sofas team with a cheery rug to add classic colour.

The rich red Rayburn has dictated the room's colour scheme. A fresh blue has been teamed with it, while go-with-anything white units add freshness. The swish pebble-effect Floor has warm blue colour blue, grey and reddish notes mixed in it - a perfect match.

A cool, cream kitchen and neutral off-white paintwork create a warm blue colour base, which is lifted with a smart deep-blue linen blind. For added impact, vases along the windowsill in matching shades of blue and cream extend the colour scheme to every aspect of the room.
