Purple sofas are currently trending, defying initial expectations, and making a significant impact in interior design.
In the world of interior design, a new trend has emerged that is as bold as it is versatile - the purple sofa. This season, the phrase 'purple sofa' is one of the biggest sofa color trends to watch, according to renowned designer Greg Natale.
Natale, known for his sophisticated designs, has observed a significant increase in the use of beautiful, sophisticated shades of purple like mauve, plum, and lavender within homes. This shift towards purple living room ideas can be attributed to the need for a bold focal point and the return of 1970s-inspired forms, he suggests.
The use of purple sofas, arguably, suits a much wider range of interiors and palettes compared to whites and grays. Purple is a versatile color that bridges both warm and cool palettes, pairing beautifully with earthy tones like terracotta and olive, as well as grays, blues, and metallics.
However, the biggest challenge when incorporating a purple sofa is committing to the bold choice. Natale and fellow designer Nicky Emlick suggest considering four key elements when it comes to styling purple sofas: lighting, textures, patterns, and accessories.
In recent years, there has been a huge uptake in the use of dusty lavenders, muted mauves, and deep plum tones within the home. These softer shades of purple, like those mentioned above, are ideal for creating a cosy and inviting atmosphere. On the other hand, certain shades of purple, like violet and aubergine, are quintessential of the 70s color palettes and can add a touch of nostalgia to any room.
Greg Natale attributes the rise of purple sofas to a blend of modern luxury and nostalgic aesthetics, particularly observing regions like Australia and Europe for their influential design movements. As we continue to move forward, it seems that the purple sofa trend is here to stay, offering homeowners a unique and stylish way to make a statement in their living spaces.
