This Seasons Interior Decorating Trends


by Carl Drotsky


Let's make colour our first consideration. This season we see the colour palette turning to nature. Delicate shades of greens and blues bring a serene, gentle and relaxing feel to any home. Although these shades are subtle and restrained, they do embody the idea of growth and renewal. Using these colours can lighten and refresh a room while creating a sense of tranquility and peace. One can add any neutral colours to these, as they are also very big this season. Using a colour like taupe or cream as your canvas, muted shades of blues, greens as well as pink can be added to bring in the hints of colour.

Adding a neutral coloured piece of furniture, like a couch will keep your colour palette together. Any furniture you do choose should have simple, clean lines and shapes. Use these pieces to bring a splash of colour here and there or use colour to bring focus to a particular area. Fabrics can be a fun way to do this. This season, refined country florals in shades of greens, pinks, blues and creams are hot additions to your home make-over.

During the cooler months ahead one can also use fabrics to add a touch of summer to your home. Soft curtains and scatter cushions with patterns can transform the look of any room in your home. When you look at the bedrooms, once again begin with a neutral palette in your linen, curtains and walls. Colour can be thrown around with floral scatter cushions against soft neutral curtains and a vase filled with freshly cut flowers from your garden all creating an inviting peaceful and tranquil haven.

Don't neglect the patio. This is the place to entertain on those warm summer evenings. Changing the scatter cushions on the outdoor suite can bring new life to your outdoor area. Ensure that you place pot plants filled with brightly coloured plants on the patio and light it up romantically at night with lanterns and candles.

Adding texture to a room brings warmth and interest. Rugs and carpets are the perfect additions. Begin with a neutral carpet and play around with smaller rugs in different colours and textures. The correct choice in lighting can also enhance a room. This plays an important part in the comfort and dcor of any home. Chandeliers are definitely in and add that old touch of class and style, with an element of romance to a home. A hanging chandelier can add warmth and a touch of glamour to your dining room, living room and yes, even your kitchen or bedroom.
