Furniture Colour Guide: The freshest colours for 2026

The Swivel Recliner Range: Making a colourful splash this summer

Summer is here! And to make the most of it, we're set on a big colour refresh to feel those summer vibes, whether we're inside or out. After many hours trawling through all the colours of the rainbow, we've put together our ultimate colour guide for home furnishings in 2026.

One theme ran through all of our research: coastal freshness meets warm forest hues.

So, read on for a room-by-room breakdown of our favourite colours for a summer refresh.

Bedroom: Mediterranean moods

Bedrooms are becoming more luxurious and restful, with deeper colours replacing pale neutrals.

Our colour picks:

• Olive Green

• Mushroom Beige

• Seashell Sand

• Mediterranean Sea Blues

These shades balance cosiness and warmth with a fresh splash of the outdoors, bringing the calming ocean atmosphere to your sanctuary of sleep. Utilise this colour scheme alongside natural wood furniture paired with neat, upholstered beds and soft, textured furnishings.

Furniture & styling ideas

A rich oak bed frame or mushroom beige divan paired with pale sandy yellow walls creates a fresh and airy canvas to paint with flashes of Mediterranean blues and natural olive green. Think curtains, cushions, or even headboards to accent your bedroom with these bolder tones.

Living Room: Coastal forests

Invite natural hues into your living room with a bright and cosy palette, transforming your living spaces with earthy colours that take centre stage.

Our colour picks:

• Fern Green

• Coastal Pebble

• Sunwashed Coral

• Warm Sandstone

These colours bring depth and character without overwhelming a space, working particularly well with natural materials such as oak, rattan and linen.

Furniture & styling ideas

Warm wood coffee tables and sideboards make the perfect platform for house plants and natural ornaments, such as a decorative pebble dish. Combine this with a central sofa in Warm Sandstone or Sunwashed Coral, and finish with a mix of rugs, cushions and furnishings in Fern Green and Coastal Pebble.

Kitchen Trends: Bold feature colours

For 2026, we want our kitchens to be bolder, pairing traditional white backgrounds with bright and warm features that make a statement.

Our colour picks:

• Peach Rosé

• Terracotta

• Butter Yellow

• Espresso Brown

These shades are perfect for feature walls and statement pieces which, when contrasted against whites and light wooden tones, create kitchens that feel stylish, welcoming and full of summer brightness.

Furniture & styling ideas

Dining tables in natural oak complement butter yellow or terracotta beautifully, making them perfect colours for a large feature wall that exudes natural warmth. Accent the room with peach rosé upholstery, wicker or cork placemats and flashes of rich espresso brown crockery.

Home Office Trends: Peaceful, creative spaces

Whether you use an office for home working or as a study area for personal projects, having a dedicated workspace, we felt that a dedicated workspace should be calm and peaceful, but with pops of colour to inspire.

Our colour picks:

• Aegean Blue

• Farmhouse Cream

• Natural Oat

• Poppy Red

These colours create a neat, professional environment that inspires calm, focus and creativity.

Furniture & styling ideas

Simple wooden desks, bookcases and storage furniture in warm oak complement a backdrop of farmhouse creak and natural oat. Accent this with the dark, cool tones of Aegean blue curtains and poppy red details to sharpen your focus with a natural palette.

Hallway Trends: First impressions matter

Hallways are too often overlooked, but they create an important first impression every time someone enters your home or goes from room to room. Create impact and tie your home together with deep, warm tones that draw you in.

Our colour picks:

• Deep Plum

• Woodland Sage

• English Walnut

• Farmhouse Cream

These colours create depth and character while making entrance spaces feel more intentional and welcoming.

Furniture & styling ideas

Slim oak console tables, storage benches and statement mirrors work particularly well alongside these rich colour palettes. Horizontally split your wall with two colours to create a captivating passageway, such as a Deep Plum lower half with a soft and bright Farmhouse Cream upper hallway.
