home: trend [ beige ]

It may not be a choice of colour that jumps out at you, but beige is to take over our lives and homes during 2019. No longer is it seen as dull, lifeless and dated, beige is actually a warming & calming colour which acts as a nuetral backdrop to bolder shades.

Layer up different shades of beige with accents of brass, gold, wood and additional colours of black and white, creating a very collated room.

There are so many accessories and soft furnishing options to bring a bit of beige into your home. H&M Home has jumped on this trend and has a huge choice of cushions, throws and bedding to add a hint to a room

For paint options check out Farrow & Ball, Dulux and Little Greene

home: made [ bedside shelving ]

January is definitely a good time for new interior ideas and DIY projects, and with purse strings being a little tighter after Christmas, a good affordable DIY is a good option.

We love this staggered upwards box shelving idea from Homesthetics which as well as being stylish, it’s practical offering a decent amount of shelving and storage for a company space as the space is gained going upwards.

Head to high street stores for affordable box shelves to work with in staggered formation up the wall. We found good options at IKEA, IKEA, Dunelm and MrHousey.

home: favourite thing [ floor lamp ]

Such a beautiful floor lamp, and such a great discount. For a great new feature in the home, invest in the midcentury styled Milton floor lamp from Heals.

Was £299 Now £179 and available in cream or black.

They say;

Blending mid-century styling with functionality, the Milton Task Table and Floor Lamp Range are compact enough to sit within any modern interior. The Milton range is designed in Banbury, and crafted from sturdy powder coated steel which is hand-painted to an antique brass finish becoming a solid design statement. The floor lamp is adjustable via a handle, allowing the user to direct the light perfectly over a sofa, or armchair when reading, or left to illuminate a room when at full height.

home: event [ Home Futures ]

Still time to catch this great exhibition at the Design Museum. ‘Home Futures’ runs until March.

They say;

Explore today’s home through the prism of yesterday’s imagination. Are we living in the way that pioneering architects and designers throughout the 20th century predicted, or has our idea of home proved resistant to real change?

The easiest way to update your home for the New Year is too use art, bringing colour and pattern in a subtle way.

home: trend [ wall decor ]

Continuing in 2019, is the love for alternative wall art.

Not framed work, not prints, not original paintings – but creative visual pieces with colour and texture and a unique feeling that you might have picked it up at a craft fair, a market whilst travelling the world or been handed it down through the family.

Shop at Anthropologie or Urban Outfitters for a gorgeous range of options but also online small designer market places like Trouva and Etsy.
