Autumn is around the corner - get cosy!


September is here again!

If you are looking to update your home for Autumn/Winter the 
perfect way to do this is a nod to Scandinavian style.

Even though this style is based around white which can seem cold,
it can easily be warmed with with natural materials.

Wood, wool, faux fur are just a couple of things
you can include in your home to make it cosier for the 
cooler weather which is on the way.





Layering textures on your sofa is a great way, open up 
a throw and spread out on the sofa with cushions on top
of this. 


In the kitchen add some natural wood by displaying wooden 
chopping boards utensils.


Layer up your bed to create the perfect environment for relaxing
and sleep.

Get your colour on!



Have you been afraid of using colour before?

Different colours can make a room feel warm or cold, big or small.

With Autumn approaching if you are decorating try some dark/navy blue.

This will help create a fantastic cosy and dramatic interior - perfect for Christmas.




Add a splash of colour with a complimentary colour will add
interest if you find blue on its own too dark.


The fuchsia pink in this lounge brightens the room.

Country Style Lounge before and after


The design brief for this country style lounge was to brighten up the space.

The stone fireplace had to stay but was making the room feel dark.

By changing the light fittings from 3 single pendants to three 5 arm chandeliers this made the lighting more of a feature and provided much needed light.

The floorboards were painted white as these were in great condition and it was a shame to hide them under carpeting.

Adding cream sofa covers brightened up the room and then by adding mercury glass accessories and a large mirror (which is out of shot) to reflect light around finished off the look.
