Beige as a key colour

Historically used un-creatively and best known as rather bland. Well this is no longer the case and the colour beige is set to be seen as a go-to colour this year.  It's easy to see why with its warm tones, opportunities for texture (think wicker, wool, earthenware, timber..) and a great neutral hue adding a calming and relaxing feel to any space.  

Looks great teamed with soft pinks, forest greens, blues and chocolatey browns.  Move over hard whites and cool greys; this is more about warm nude colours, taupes and mushroom tones.

Seventies style

On the opposite end of the beige and neutral spectrum we have the 70's vibe of eye catching colour and pattern - here to please the interior-fearless and bravely bold! With a more clean and modern take than the original era, this trend is all about graphic prints, clean shapes and playful colours - stick to walnut, terracotta, mustards, and teals.

Curves

Moving on from the 70's style, but still with a playful nod to this decade, we see the introduction of softening curves and rounded edges to furniture and interior accessories. 

This trend has been simmering on the radar for some time now with the popularity  of architectural arches, round mirrors and the new curvaceous form seen on bedheads and sofas.  

Take a look at our muna sofa as a great example or the latest products from ferm living with the launch of their striking rico sofa, round mingle table and sculptured insert side table.

Black metal

Not exactly a new trend, but it very much continues to be the metal of the moment and overtaking copper and brass when it comes to accent pieces.  The use of black can add both a modern and dramatic edge to your space.

Sustainability - the ethical choice

More of a movement than a trend as the use of sustainable and ethical materials in our homes continues to be prevalent with consumers making more considered choices about where and what products are made from.  Here's a selection of product highlights from our shop which are kind to the planet and responsibly sourced.

The organised home

With the growing trend of minimal living and conscious shopping it's not surprising then that we want to take a more considered approach to how we display and store these treasured pieces in our homes.  Seen by us as more of a lifestyle trend that is set to shape our homes and how we use our space.  With the introduction of the popular KonMari method from Marie Kondo (if you haven't checked this out then do so now!) never has an organised home brought so much joy!  

January is often synonymous with decluttering and bringing some order to the year ahead so to get you started, check out our storage and shelving category or shop some of our fav pieces below...
