After a year of futuristic minimalism and tech-inspired spaces, 2019 sees a return to nature and tactile décor in a lush, romantic revival. Here are five ways you can bring in the spring to your home décor.
1. Floral prints – Think 70’s botanical motifs and retro blooms. Accent walls with a vintage floral print, and/or soft furnishings with vegetative detailing breathe life into your surroundings.
2. Natural elements – Plants are not only a great way to reduce indoor pollution and relieve stress, this season, they create visual interest and add a freshness to the décor
3. A dash of wabi-sabi – This Japanese inspired trend involves adding a carelessly homely touch to your space. Repurposed furniture, purposefully mismatched pieces, arranged with a light touch make your space more inviting
4. Warm colour palettes – Buttery browns, copper hints, earthy tones create an aura of understated elegance in your home
5. Brass and copper fittings – Give your bathroom fittings a retrospective update. These warm metals are soothing, and have a nostalgic, inviting vibe
6. Velvet furniture – Sink into a plush sofa or armchair and feel like royalty. We’re in love with all things velvet, and it extends to our furniture
7. Classic black and white – Colour palettes will come and go, but black and white is forever
8. Round edges – accent tables, mirrors, furniture…the harsh angles are giving way to softer curves in the home
