Energized View Jewel
The spirit of this main block lies in my mom's costume jewellery collection. I used to open it up to eye popping blues, and reds. I added in the vibrant yellow 'Moonshine' to emulate the gold bands.
That combination spoke to me, even as a child. Bold colours on opposite sides of the spectrum come together in such an emotive way. This will fill a space where you want it to stand out without too much height. The colour will provide the energy.
I find blue and red side-by side to be such an energizing combo. The grass mutes the palette slightly to bring energy through both movement and colour.
The plants.
