THE TOP INTERIOR DESIGN CONCEPTS FOR SUMMER
Mother, Baby & Child
|June 2024
This season, the focus is on creating spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also practical and comforting-perfect touchstones for family life.
-
From sustainable materials to bold colours, these eleven gorgeous design ideas offer something for every taste and lifestyle. Let’s explore the top trends that are set to dominate this summer.
SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
Eco-friendliness continues to be a significant influence in interior design around the world in general. Homeowners are increasingly choosing furnishings made from recycled or sustainably sourced materials, which translates into more furniture crafted from reclaimed wood, bamboo and rattan, as well as a surge in the popularity of natural fabrics like organic cotton, linen and hemp. Additionally, energy-efficient lighting and solarpowered accessories are becoming more common, being good for your pocket as well as the planet!
New furniture is not necessarily on the cards for lots of us this summer, so incorporating plants into your home is another easy and accessible way to embrace this trend. Vertical gardens and indoor planters not only purify the air for us, but also bring a touch of nature indoors, which adds a serene and relaxing element to your family’s living spaces.
BOLD COLOURS AND PATTERNS
This one is all about vibrant hues and striking patterns. So, say goodbye to muted tones and hello to a riot of colours! This season’s palette includes rich blues, emerald greens, perfect peaches and sunny yellows, which can be used to create statement walls, or used as accents in your cushions, rugs and artwork.
Patterns are also making a big splash. Geometric designs, floral prints and abstract art-inspired motifs are perfect for adding a playful, yet sophisticated touch to our interiors. Mixing and matching patterns in complementary colours can also create a dynamic and visually stimulating space that feels very stylish, but is actually quite easy to achieve with just a few fun accessories.
