• Garden  — a paint colour developed by Yvonne Koné for Blēo
YV KO 06 Garden by Yvonne Koné

A warm, rosy hue with a mellow terracotta undertone. Inspired by Koné’s personal memories of summers spent in a countryside garden full of flowers in pink, orange and yellow tones—flowers she would hang to dry in my bedroom.

Safe Place by Yvonne Koné

A collection of colours made to give a welcoming sensation of calmness, warmth, and space. Each of the Danish designer’s 15 colours are mixed with intuition in her private living room, and Koné’s aim with Safe Place has been to make a colour palette where you are surrounded by warmth when entering a room, even when a colour is close to being neutral. The colours should give you a feeling of being safe.
