Coffee and Lokum for your walls

It's winter (at least on the calender) and that means renovation season for us, as there is still a lot of things we want to change and redecorate in and around the house. So we picked up the work with having the walls of two of our bedrooms painted. I discovered the ‘Osmanlı Renkleri’ collection from Marshall. A new palette of delicious colors, divided into the four themes Turkish Delight, Berlingot, Sherbet and Coffee, that refer to the magnificent interiors of villas and palaces during the Ottoman empire. I fell immediately for the names of those fruity and spicy colors like Lemon Lokum, Cinnamon Berlingot and Coffee with Musk. I had to have those colors, to create this warm and luxurious feeling, that the Ottomon style is so well known for, within our own four walls. We chose the warm Sesame Berlingot for the guest room and the deep Coffee with Cardamom (Kakuleli Kahve) for our bedroom. Here's a little preview. More pictures with the final results at some point in the future..




Pick a flavour
\
Lokum / Turkish Delight:  powdery, innocent colors of cream, pistachio green, pastel lemon yellow and soft pink to add romance and a scence of luxury to the room.
Akide / Berlingot: comes in vibrant colors of Sesame, Mint, Orange and Cinnamon, adding the intensity and warmth of oriental spices to the room. 
Şerbet / Sherbet: reflecting the colors of nuts, fragrant flowers and ripe fruits like almonds and cranberries on the walls, adding a rich and dreamlike feeling to the space.
Kahve / Coffee! My favorite. Deep shades of Cardamom, Musk and Amber turn your room into a warm and comforting space that makes you want to stay in bed forever.
Those colors look amazing in traditional rooms as well as in contemporary, modern interiors. I also dig those traditional and symbolic patterns and motifs, looks interesting.
