If you’re thinking of giving your home a makeover in the New Year but aren’t too sure where to start, here are some ideas that will get your creative juices flowing. And don’t forget, our beautiful wooden shutter range will add an extra element of elegance and timelessness, no matter how you decorate and style your home.
Less is more!
Less is more has been on the horizon for a long time. Clean lines, uncluttered surfaces, less layering, just less everything! If you’re inspired by the ‘less is more’ design approach, make sure every element you choose is selected carefully and purposefully. This look isn’t for everyone, but it can result in creating a stunning effect within your home. If you’re looking for a sleek, timeless look for your windows, our classic white full-height shutters are understated yet elegant and classy.
Office & Living Spaces
Incorporating living, working and play spaces into our homes literally happened overnight during lockdown. Open plan living was seeing a steady increase in popularity regardless of the pandemic, now we are seeing a lot of huge open rooms that incorporate everyone’s needs. The lines of distinction are blurring, allowing us to move freely between the areas. A great way to create room divisions without compromising on open plan spaces is with room-dividing tracked shutters.
Au revoir Farmhouse, bonjour Country Chic
The love of the Farmhouse design has been a front runner for many years. If you love this style, don’t worry it’s not being ousted, it’s just taking a slight backseat as Country Chic makes an appearance. Not so distressed as the Farmhouse look, Country Chic still has the warmth and comfy feeling as the Farmhouse design but instead it embraces wood tones and mixes updated styles. If you’re looking for accessories and furniture, opt for those that have a European vintage feel. Some quality wooden shutters will add to this vibe perfectly.
Earthy Palettes and Textures
Previously, we wrote a blog on Dulux’s ‘Colour of the Year’, Brave Ground. It’s a warm, earthy shade that connects back to nature. Other major paint manufacturers are also following suit with lovely rich shades that can be mixed with bold colours to really brighten a room up. Many of us are looking for an air of calm and comfort within our homes this year, and these new inspired colours really do lend themselves to the job.
