The classic color palette of red, white and blue is showing up everywhere right now—from textiles to tabletop to furniture. The red, white and blue color scheme always has a certain pomp and festiveness to it. It also has a crispness and brightness that conjures up the summer season, so you can’t help but feel joyful when seeing these colors together.
Rather than reserving red, white, and blue decor solely for the Fourth of July, we love the idea of incorporating it into our homes year-round—with a slightly unexpected gallic twist. Taking cues from Napoleon’s campaign tents with elaborate draped panels, stars, stripes, as well as Neoclassical elements like pyramids and obelisks, this color scheme becomes ultra chic.
Here's how to nail the red, white, and blue decor trend in your own home all year long. Go ahead and revel in the unabashed tricolor joie de vivre!
