Decorating Trends – Winter 2017

By July 7, 2017 May 7th, 2019 No Comments

Interior decoration trends are introduced each season. Two of our favourites for winter 2017 are velvet accessories and the use of a range of natural tones.

 

Velvet

Velvet textures immediately add a luxe aesthetic to your space. It is trending in fashion and is equally fashionable in home decor in 2017. You can choose from major statement pieces, like sofas (see the image featured below), chairs and headboards, or you can accessorise your home or office on a smaller scale to embrace this trend. Objects such as cushions, stools, blankets and ottomans can be more cost effective and less overwhelming – but just as effective and on-trend. Particularly popular colours are blues, greens and pinks, but you can choose from almost any colour to match your existing style. The beauty of velvet is that even when the material wears in, it holds well so it can stay as a statement piece in your home long term.

Caramel, brick, chocolate, and other earthy colours are trending this winter. You can choose to change the entire look of your room or home to match this look, or more easily accessorise with these colours for the season. The images below feature a very pulled together room styling, with each room focusing on a particular colour theme, but you can add this style into your existing decor as well. Dark green – and similar shades – has also seen a revival in the interior decorating world this season.
