It’s always a magical season when frosty windows and sparkling snow enter the picture, and we’re able to turn our attention inwards to cozy interiors. It’s no surprise that most of the looks we’ve seen this year have been tinged with blue, as the official color of the year was a shade of classic blue the color of a rich dusky sky. But we’ve also seen warmer shades of bright jewel tones, toasty neutrals, and delicate hues inspired by the warm breezes of exotic travel to balance out the blues and bring in an optimistic view of 2021. Ready to snuggle indoors and layer in some new colors? You can design the perfect palette for your space with Rowe custom sofas and chairs, combined with our nearly endless selection of unique fabric options. A fresh look for the new year is always a welcome change, and we’ve got just the right creative ideas for the frosty season!
