Trending: Our favourite lilac homewares

A rather divisive hue, purple is suddenly all the rage on the interior scene which is not surprising given Pantone named ‘Ultra Violet’ the colour of 2018. And while there are plenty of purple iterations doing the rounds (deep plum, royal purple, mauve and lavender to name a few), it’s lilac that we’re rather taken with.

Kip & Co: The Melbourne brand can always be relied upon to bring the colour. The velvet is particularly lush. Kip & Co Orchid linen frill pillowcase, $49 & Orchid velvet pea cushion, $89.

Adairs Kids Jax side table white & lilac: I love this two-toned bedside for a little girl’s room. $139.99.

Linen House Nimes elderberry linen quilt cover set: Pre-shrunk and stone-washed, this linen bedding has a gorgeous vintage feel. From $179.95.

Taubmans ‘Lavendula’ paint: Julia and Sasha used a gorgeous paint shade on the front door of their most recent renovation (pictured below). It’s a stunning pastel neon (an oxymoron I know!), it really pops agains the brass hardware.
