What's Your Favourite Linen Fabric Colour?

As Spring unfolds and blossoms and blooms begin to brighten the world, it's a good time to think about colour. Many of us are giving our homes a Spring refresh, or thinking of trying new colours for the new season. While we love neutrals and minimal interiors there's always a place for bright splashes of jewel tones or pops of pastel. 

Linen fabric takes dyes brilliantly, making it a versatile option for homewares as there's such huge range of colour choices. For example, expert linen designers and producers LinenMe stock over 1000 different linen fabrics, which gives you an idea of how wide the choice of colours and patterns can be.

Thanks to its long-lasting durability, linen fabric is something to keep rather than constantly switch-out according to the latest colour trends. We recommend choosing a base colour scheme for your interior, and then updating or refreshing with smaller accessories like linen cushions or curtains. That way you get the best of both worlds: sustainable, timeless style with an easy tonal update when you fancy a change. 

With this in mind, here are some linen fabric colour palettes for contemporary interiors that also embrace the natural charms and enduring appeal of linen.
