Terracotta sofa with terracotta walls.

Terracotta is fast emerging as the vibrant alternative to neutrals when creating a luxe-looking living room scheme. It summons up visions of Mediterranean getaways and warm summer days. This paint trend has an all-around warm feel to it, making it the perfect spin on beige or grey for creating a relaxing and luxurious-looking home.

We have already seen terracotta garden ideas, dominate outdoors and the earthy shade popping up as an accent shade in home furnishings in cushions, vases and rugs.
