Summer Mood Board: Colours Inspired by Dream Destinations

As the days stretch longer and the air turns golden, we’re dreaming of escapes that awaken the senses—sun-drenched coastlines, fragrant markets, rustic villas, and ocean breezes.

This season, let your home reflect the essence of summer with a palette inspired by some of the world’s most iconic holiday destinations.

To help you along the way, we’ve curated a summer mood board pairing some of our favorite Mercadier lime paint and microcement colours with the timeless beauty of places like Tuscany, Provence, Bali, and the Greek Isles. Each shade captures the spirit of its locale—whether it's the baked earth tones of a Tuscan vineyard or the crisp whites  of a sunlit village in Santorini.

Ready? Let's go!
