Ask the designer: Decorating for summer and seasons
A. Neon brights is one of the hottest interior trends for summer 2012. Although not for the faint-hearted, it will certainly brighten up your living room. And you don’t have to paint the walls a psychedelic hue to achieve the desired effect. Simply add some neon scatter cushions to your sofa — fuschia, tangerine, sulphur yellow or turquoise blue will really pop against the grey. Complete the look with a brightly painted coffee table or TV unit or rug, such as the stunning “Bouquet de 3” one from Roche Bobois in Sandyford, Dublin or www.roche-bobois.com.
