Shots of bright colour

I often shy away from using much colour while decorating, in favour of calm all white spaces or soft neutrals. However, there's no denying the energy and sheer happiness that doses of bright colour bring. This beautiful Paris apartment is evidence of that. But of course, what better background to show off colour than all white?
