3 secrets to this scheme
COCOA POWER
Choose deep brown tones to create a strong base for this look. Bitter coffee shades look fantastic on woodwork and cabinets.
IN TOUCH
Go easy on pattern and instead opt for sumptuous texture. Bobbly bouclé fabrics, panelling and ribbed wallpapers will add subtle interest.
ALL THE EXTRAS
Contrast chocolate shades with whipped-cream whites and gentle hints of marshmallow pink. These touches will lighten the effect for a balanced look.
