Bring summer inside with sunny shades and Quick-Step

How to combine Quick-Step floors and sunny shades?

Yellow and orange symbolise optimism and vitality, but after years when minimalism dominated interior design with beige and neutral tones as the main colour palette, these bright colours might take some getting used to. By combining yellow and peachy shades with the right Quick-Step laminate, vinyl or hardwood floor, you can create a vibrant, inviting space that celebrates the joy of summer all year round.

Add yellow colours...

No stress if you don't feel ready for a radical metamorphosis just yet. A subtle touch of yellow is enough to spread positive vibes throughout the house. Think accessories such as decorative cushions, cheerful rugs, or a vase with sunflowers. Want to go a step further? Paint an entire wall in vibrant yellow or give your staircase a splash of bright yellow paint. Bet the sun starts shining instantly?

... or choose peachy shades

Peachy shades offer a softer, more subdued alternative to bright orange, blending warmth with a sense of tranquility. Incorporating peach through accessories like throw pillows, curtains, or small decor items can gently introduce this color into your space. For a bolder approach, consider an accent wall in a peachy hue or select furniture pieces such as a peach-colored armchair or a coffee table.

Pick the right floor for your sunny shaded interior

To achieve a visually coherent interior, it's important to find a good balance. Otherwise, the combination of yellow and orange risks becoming overwhelming. Therefore, the floor plays a crucial role. Whether it's vinyl, hardwood, or laminate, one thing is certain: Quick-Step floors are the perfect foundation for any successful colour experiment.

Intense look to accentuate the vibrant colours

If you want the vibrant colour accents to stand out, it's best to opt for floors with a deep, intense wood look, such as walnut or dark brown oak. Trendsetters can even go a step further by choosing a herringbone flooring. The unique pattern is the perfect foundation for an unconventional colour scheme and enhances the eclectic effect you're aiming for.

Neutral floor for a discreet look

Prefer a more discreet look? Then go for a neutral floor, but avoid floors with cool, grey undertones as they clash with the warm radiance of yellow and orange. Instead, opt for neutral shades that have a warm base, which will complement the vibrant hues and create a harmonious balance.
