Consider light
The sunnier the room, the more yellowy natual colours will look. Opt for semi-sheer voiles that makes a lovely alternative to net curtains to maximise the natural light in a room but limit visibility from outside. Likewise, clean linens and lightweight cotton curtains or blinds are perfect for creating a fresh, informal feel in a room.

Wall Colours
Neutral wall colours are divided into warm neutrals (with yellow or green undertones) or cool (violet or blue undertones). Choose warm neutrals for north facing rooms which tend towards blue light as they will warm it up and bounce light around. Cool neutrals look fantastic in east or south facing rooms that get lots of morning sun. 

Essential layering
The key to decorating with naturals is to ensure everything blends well together but that colours are also layered for visual interest and prevent your scheme looking flat. Combine naturals with warm undertones like beige, sand, clay and taupe with deeper hues for a contemporary look.

Play with texture
Vital when decorating with naturals, different textures help to elevate a space and bring depth & visual interest. Mix gloss paints with flatter emulsions, showcase building materials like stone, brick work or wooden floors, and play with gentle patterns, weaves & textures in textiles, soft furnishings, rugs, and upholstery.

Dark Hues
To bring a natural colour scheme to life, punctuate it with darker hues. Inky shades in art and furniture will ground the space, while using a mix of darker-shade woods, dull gold, warm brass and contrasting textiles injects a bit of warmth and glamour to the scheme.
