Rediscovering Terracotta

Rediscovering Terracotta

The word terracotta comes from Italian (terra cotta) and means "baked earth". Items made of baked, but not glazed, clay are called terracotta. Its warm colour, a mixture of brown, orange and red, is a characteristic feature of the material and was presumably the inspiration for the colour of the same name. Terracotta was used as a colour for interior design back in the mid-century era.

Throws, curtains and cushion covers in this earthen colour were particularly popular at the time. And now, with the latest trends leaning towards vintage and retro-style, it's beginning to grab attention once again. It can be combined to outstanding effect with light grey, beige and antique pink. Petrol and black are also good matches to this beautiful colour shade. For a while, terracotta was considered fusty and old-fashioned. However, combining it with simple, clear-cut shapes and matt surfaces transforms this earthy hue into a stylish trendy colour.

Terracotta also looks good on wallpaper, coming across particularly well in living spaces and places that are intended to be cosy. Here's a small tip from us: combine terracotta wallpaper with green plants and you will achieve the perfect balance of a cosy yet modern-looking ambience.
