Inviting the Outdoors In: Springing into Nature-Inspired Interiors
As the first blooms of spring burst forth, our homes become a vibrant canvas, ready to be transformed by the beauty of the natural world. The boundaries between indoors and outdoors begin to blur, and the desire to bring the freshness and vitality of nature into our living spaces becomes irresistible. We're excited to share with you the latest trends, tips, and tricks for infusing your home with the magic of the outdoors, creating a seamless harmony between the wild and the warmth of your interior.
Bringing in Greenery
Houseplants are not just a passing trend; they're here to stay. Greenery adds a touch of freshness and vitality to any room. Choose low-maintenance plants like succulents or air plants for busy households, or opt for lush ferns and peace lilies for a more dramatic effect. Consider using planters made from natural materials like terracotta or wood to complement your indoor garden.
Lighting and Views
Natural light is essential for creating a sense of connection to the outdoors. Use sheer curtains or blinds to filter sunlight and highlight the beauty of your surroundings. If possible, position furniture to take advantage of stunning views, whether it's a garden, a park, or a scenic landscape.
Natural Fibres and Textures
Incorporating natural fibres like linen, cotton, and wool into your decor can add freshness and vitality to your space. Our Sheepskin Cushions and Wool Throws are perfect for layering textures and creating a bright, airy atmosphere. Consider combining these with natural wood pieces, such as a reclaimed wood coffee table, and adding pops of greenery to enhance the organic feel of your room and welcome the new season. This blend of textures and colours will help transition your home from winter's warmth to spring's freshness.
