The annual London Design Festival (LDF) celebrates the city as a design capital and brings together Britain’s greatest creatives. It’s like fashion week for interiors, with an abundance of new collections on display for the very first time. After scouring this year’s edition, here are the emerging autumn/winter 2024 trends to know.
A fresh palette
Whilst browns, burgundies, and navies will always be dominant cosy season colours, there are some unexpected hues thrown into the mix this year. Claire German, CEO of Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour, explains: “We’re seeing a refreshingly vibrant palette this autumn featuring aqua, prickly pear pink, spearmint green, and sky blue.”
This fresh colour scheme has also been spotted on the autumn/winter runway, with many brands embracing sunny shades. For example, Prada recently showcased mustard knitwear, whilst Jacquemus and Bottega Veneta celebrated buttery yellow.
During LDF, wallpaper designer Cole & Son unveiled its Shinrin Yoku collection, which draws inspiration from Japanese landscapes. The “Kawakubo” design features whimsical, candycoloured brushstrokes in a swirling zen garden-esque pattern.
