It’s that time of year where shiny new trends and suggestions are coming at you from all angles – so we’ve compiled our favourites to help you out
Rich tones, colour blocks, a touch of black and big flouncy florals are what’s to come this autumn and winter. Below we show you how to create these exciting trends in your home this coming season.
- OVERSIZED FLORALS
This is a really lovely trend – who doesn’t love flower prints and on a large scale? Look out for big blousy designs that have a pre-Raphaelite style and you’ll find them on cushions, bedding and as murals. Keep the rest of the look simple, so the florals become the star and pick out key colours to accessorize with.
- MODERN NEUTRALS
This is a combination of different elements that create a beautiful and simple look with the emphasis on natural-looking furniture. Team this with gently patterned crockery, soft grey chairs and a neutral block-coloured textured rug to complete this calming trend.
- JET BLACK
Fans of monochrome will adore this trend. It’s all about the accessories – and they need to be black. But if you’re not a massive fan of large amounts of black you can make this trend work by using small blocks here and there. Combine this look with tactile pieces and white to balance it out.
- ALL THE PINKS
Dusty, old fashioned pinks are all the rage for autumn which is a perfect antidote to the usual rusty tones we see, and as it’s such an easy-on-the-eye colour it’s simple to apply to our homes. These tones will work especially well alongside metallic, contemporary greys and the new wave of darker neutrals. If you’re feeling bold, go for statement upholstery in vibrant pink velvet or for a more understated look try “painterly” florals and layer textures and fabrics to add interest.
- TACTILE KITCHENS
Kitchens are undergoing a change, no longer are they simply all about one style of units, a worktop and a complementary backsplash. This new and exciting trend is all about mixing it up – different textures next to each other, contrasting in both colour and touch.
- BRIGHT SHAPES
Playful and full of colour, this trend is certainly a happy one. Look out for bold shades in different shapes – stripes, geometrical, spots and blocks and you can’t go wrong. Pop it all together and you’ll have this trend spot on.
- TRUE BLUE
Navy is the BIG colour for these coming seasons, gentle on the eye yet moody enough to be perfect for the winter months – you’re going to see it everywhere. (See Behr’s colour of the year for 2019 here – we’ll talk about that another day). Here, it’s been teamed with gold – keep accessories simple and it’s easy to let this dazzling wallpaper be the focal point of your room.
- ARTISAN FOLK
With all of us spending more and more time on social media, there’s a move towards more conscious and folk-inspired handcrafted homewares. Having pieces that feel great will be key; tufted rugs, decorative quilts and rattan lampshades, as shown here, will all be popular. There’s a need for textures that create interest visually whilst retaining a cosy feel to help us through those darker months.
