Bright sparks

I'm not totally convinced about neon when it comes to interiors. I love it in fashion, especially the trend of mixing fluoros with neutrals such as nude, copper or bronze. But when used in interiors, neon seems infinitely more faddish. The thought of looking at a fluorescent vase or piece of furniture for more than a few weeks leaves me cold. Having said that, hot shades of pink and orange can give the spirits a lift, even if temporarily. It's difficult not to smile at the sheer positivity of these Peaches + Keen macrame hangers or internationally renowned photographer Floor Knaapen's pretty work for Dutch design magazine Eigenhuis & Interieur.
