What Colors Go With Fuchsia?

Navy Blue and Black

• A fuchsia rug with navy blue and black accents can liven up a room where the walls are a neutral color such as eggshell white or a light tan brick. Add solid fuchsia, navy blue and black scatter pillows to living room chairs and couches to continue the color theme. Hang a bright-pink fuchsia plant in the window to add bits of green and fuchsia accents to the room's perimeter.

Black and White

• Paint the front of a set of bookshelves with drawers fuchsia. Paint the top solid black. Alternate geometric shapes in black and white on the shelf backs. Paint the drawer knobs white with a small circle of black outlining the front of the knob. Set the piece of furniture on a black-and-white tile floor. Use any leftover fuchsia paint to outline the white panels on a closet door in the same room.

Faded Teal

• Faded teal is a strong interior decorating color that has made a comeback. Its soft color makes a visually stunning accent to fuchsia architectural details, especially when it is used on formal furniture such as a drawing room couch or guest chairs. Pair faded teal furniture or rugs with ivory walls and fuchsia doors or fuchsia and white stairs, balusters and handrails. Paint the stair risers white and the treads fuchsia.

Olive Green and White

• Fuchsia also works well as an interior accent color for built-in bookshelves. Paint the walls of a room a solid olive green. Paint the interior, front trim and shelves on a built- in bookshelf bright fuchsia. Paint the edges of each shelf olive green. Paint the ceiling, window and door trims white to give the room some neutral color. Frame the built-in bookshelf with white and fuchsia vinyl wall cling flowers.
