While the cold wind is whistling past your house and the heating is in over-drive, you probably aren’t thinking too much about warmer weather…except if you are fantasizing about being on a hot sandy beach with a fresh majito..now THERE’S an idea. How about a sea of colour for the bedroom instead?

But very soon, bedrooms will be awash with ocean blues, aquamarines and sand or driftwood neutrals with Legend Australia, one of the country’s leading bedlinen designers and manufacturers, releasing the first of its Spring/Summer colour palettes for 2015/16.

Pacific Navy by Royal Doulton is bright, bold and vibrant in 100% soft cotton sateen panel print. In a classic palette of cool white with several shades of mid and deep blues, this is an abstract take on summer sea and sand.  It boasts a meld of several seashore patterns, finished with self-flanged edges, white bias piping and a coordinated printed reverse, this design lends itself to a fresh and casual layering of sheets, quilt, pillows and cushions.

If you’re looking for a more sublime ombré of soft seaside blues merging with sandy taupes then Jervis Blue perfectly reflects the ocean meeting the sand. Quilt covers and pillowcases are in a soft-to-the-touch 100% cotton yarn dyed jacquard framed with an all-white flange.

Wade Indigo is my favourite as it’s a completely different marine theme – dark and moody with a textured-look, tie-dye and cross hatch pattern in deep indigo, mid and aqua blues punctuated with white. It is a design that captures the essence of relaxed living – and it works well with lots of white in furniture and accessories.

Bondi Ocean is perfect for those looking for a change of pace with a 100% cotton canvas cushion featuring saturated waves of colour – it’s the perfect pop of colour for many of the ocean-themed bedlinen designs.

Finally, for a more contemplative ambience, Platinum’s Tatami Ocean teams a series of fine geometrics with stripes of washed blues and muted sands on a textured diamond waffle and a self-flange trim.

Are you someone who changes their bed linen with the seasons? How do you change up the look in your bedroom? What’s your favourite bedroom style (even if you don’t have it)? Would you like a sea of colour for the bedroom at your house?
