Sage Green + Deep Red
Temple green against pomegranate. The green stays quiet so the red can do all the talking — put the red on one piece only.

The pairings
One pastel to live on the walls, one deep shade to carry the drama. That's the whole rule.
Pastel Yellow + Midnight Blue
Haldi and indigo — the oldest pair in Indian textiles. Warm walls, deep blue on the sofa or the shutters.
#FDE392
#435B88
Lavender + Hot Pink
Jaipur pink, softened. The lavender takes the heat out of it, so the pink reads romantic instead of loud.
#D3B6D9
#F390C0
Blush Pink + Sage Green
Lotus and leaf. Both muted, neither one fighting the other — this is the pair for a bedroom you actually want to sleep in.
#ECB4B8
#AEAD80
Powder Blue + Burnt Orange
Marigold on a Jodhpur blue wall. Cool wall, warm flower — festival colour that keeps working the rest of the year.
