From fashion to the home front, colour blocking is a visual dynamo.

Home decor takes its cues from fashion, so we can usually spot a trend coming down the bend, and we’ve been gleefully anticipating this one for some time—colour blocking is finally here. We loved the look when it came to bold tops and vibrant dresses, and we love it even more for the home, whether its used on modern armchairs or playful dishware. Below, stylist Nicole Sjostedt shares her favourite picks for the fall’s hottest look.colour-blocking-trend
