3 SECRETS TO THIS SCHEME
PALM SUNDAE
The bold, banana leaf wallpaper that decorates the hallways of this hotel was designed in the 1940s but still feels fresh today. Steal the look with tropical prints in pastel, ice-cream shades.
HOT LINES
Striking, graphic stripes provide a sharp contrast to the soft colours of this scheme. Paint them with a steady hand, get out the masking tape or, just pick up striped wallpaper and fabric.
FEATHER YOUR NEST
Bright pink flamingos are the perfect motif to add a bit of fun to this scheme. These elegant birds are playfully kitsch, but their colour makes them easy to place alongside the rest of the look.
