Living Room Accessories

In recent times the living room experience has changed, the living room has become the core to any household, with it being used for breakfast, dinner as well as family and friends interaction during the evenings, this has been highlighted by changing financial times, with people wanting to save money leading to more staying at home and holding dinner’s and movie nights.

With home decor stores such as Next & House of Fraser providing contemporary furnishings, why not up-cycle items to create an eclectic mix which is unique to your home

We look at styled interiors and accessories to keep up with the Jone’s, without spending a bomb. 

Style 1: Oak and neutral tones always create a sense of warmth, highlighted with vanilla/linen candles. A soft accent of pink flowers adds a pop of colour, teamed with an oatmeal rug creates a cosy winter wonderland.

Style 2: Feature walls are always deemed as a must have in the home, but putting a mass print, can be overwhelming to the space, so why not go for an oak veneer feature. This can be on the pricey side, but creates an interesting focal point for friends and family to talk about. An oak feature wall brings the space together, and can be teamed up with similar oaks and heavy blues, which looks refreshing in all seasons.

Style 3: Nautical styles always remain on trend, this interior evokes a sense of Greenwich meantime, with navy blues making it clean and fresh. Using copper and bronzes to create a balance, the use of horizontal lines gives the impression of a larger space.

Style 4: Country greenery, brings Richmond park to you. Block colours with underlying neutral 

tones: grey/black and green creates a symphony of nature.

Style 5: Mantelpieces always seemed to be cluttered, why not use your pasta jars and wrap them in linen to create a sense of travel, a small cost effective touch  to make your mantelpiece unique.

Tartan stripes back

In 2013 Autumn/Winter we saw the rise of tartan punk making a come back with household names such as Saint Laurent, Mulberry, Givenchy and  Versace. 

The quintessentially British print is making an appearance on lampshades, giving the traditional interior a contemporary twist. 

The sumptuous print gives a warm, cosy and rustic feel to any interior. Here we  look at our top 5 favourite Tartan inspired interiors.
