These days, many of us are spending a lot more time at home, and if you’re anything like us, that means you’re noticing that your living quarters could use a serious pick-me-up. Luckily, it’s easy to go ahead and add some brightness to your life in the form of poppy-colored accents—or rather, coquelicot accents.
What Is Coquelicot?
Coquelicot, from the French word for “poppy,” is a vibrant shade of red. It’s slightly lighter than cherry and has subtle orange undertones – that’s really that poppy flower color. Perfectly balanced between crimson and fuchsia, it’s neither too severe nor too juvenile, but it brings the heat; coquelicot embodies joy and vibrance.
