The earthy shades – from deep terracotta to soft, powder-coloured tones – are an ode to nature and immediately give your interior a warm, inviting look. With the different terra shades you can go in all sorts of directions. Dive into the world of terra and discover how you can apply this colour trend in your own living room.

where does terra come from?

Terra, derived from the Latin word for earth, encompasses a range of warm, earthy shades that vary from deep reddish brown to soft powdery colours. Terracotta is the name for the porous and red-baked clay from which the well-known flower pots are made. This material is also used in warm Mediterranean countries for roof tiles. Heat is less well absorbed by terracotta, which keeps the house cooler.

Terra is a versatile colour that can be applied in different shades and combinations to give any space warmth and character. Below you will find the most beautiful shades of terra and combinations to use in your interior.

A terra sofa can really come to life when you combine it with contrasting colour accents.
