We love a simple pop of colour in a neutral room. This mustard sofa from Cult Furniture is a dream silhouette, colour and style and a great way to update a room.

The mustard colour would also sit great with the jewel tone trend, mixed with strong tones like emerald and turquoise or work with a bright white interior with a few other pops of colour.

£749

They say;

home: trend [ chintz ]

By definition ‘chintz’ is quite a broad term to describe a certain style of multi-floral, ‘twee’ or rather english country cottage-ish homewares and furnishings, but it can be many things to many people.

chintz
/tʃɪn(t)s/
noun
  1. printed multicoloured cotton fabric with a glazed finish, used for curtains and upholstery.
  2. “floral chintz curtains”

….the grandparents overly floral sitting room with pot pourri and tasseled tie backs on curtains, dated china figurines and doilies on side tables, pinks and pastels and illustrated florals on every surface and what people often presume is behind every door to a thatch cottage and of course the decor to many a seaside B&B from the eighties.

Fast forward to modern day and there’s a surge in popularity for the chintz look with a subtle modern approach.

Many a crafty blogger or instagrammer is embracing the look and it’s encouraging a great push for upcycling, recycling and sourcing second hand pieces for the home – better for your bank account and better for the environment.

Layer up florals on fresh light painted backdrops. Use accessories in marble, metallics and ceramic. Cluster vases and ornaments and also play with clashing pattern sizes on cushions, furniture and curtains.

With Summer sales pretty much all over we look forward to new arrivals dropping in stores. As fans of Habitat we gad a browse on their website st spotted this gorgeous sofa.

Taking inspiration from Mid Century style with a modern twist the Victor sofa range comes with two colour choices – emerald green velvet or charcoal cotton.

We love the walnut veneer frame surrounding the sofa creating a bold look which will certainly turn heads.

Time to get pumped up with voluminous furniture. This is about investing in statement pieces that will be a conversation starter, a design feature, an heirloom.

Think of bulbous curves, thick set chunks of arms and legs, puffy look seats, and a sense of volume in the silhouette.

If you have a small space that regular sofas just won’t fit or need a little extra seating for a lounge, try a snuggler sofa which is a small but perfectly formed mini sofa.

We love this Orla Kiely Mimosa Snuggler design available from Barker & Stonehouse for the reduced price of £699 (was £839) and it can be bought in a choice of nine fabric colours.
