Get creative with colour
Towards the end of the 1950s, people were injecting bright colours into their homes like blues, greens, oranges and yellow. You can easily add a pop of colour to any room with a colourful lampshade, wallpaper, armchair, cushions, curtains, flowers or plants.
The new season of A Place to Call Home premieres on Sunday, October 8, at 7.30pm on Foxtel Showcase.
