MAY/JUNE
Welcome!
E
veryone loves to flex
their creative muscles
and for our style
team it’s a full-time
occupation. A weather
shift is the excuse we all need
to run a keen eye over our
living spaces with “cosy” in
mind. And in excellent news,
there is no one way to warm
up this winter.
The current decorating
climate is particularly
forgiving, due to a “new-old”
direction that encourages the
mixing of colour, pattern and
pieces from different eras.
Our team went country to
Go bold with your
decor! See page 63
bring this to life and the result
is a maximalist’s dream, high
on charm (page 63).
Those who believe neutral
layers are the key to happiness
will love the calm and layered,
interior and textural depth
achieved with new-season rugs
(page 15), one of the fastest
ways to take a room from cool
to cosy. In natural jute and wool
plus plusher piles and even
washable styles, rugs bring
affordable, instant comfort
and visual gratification.
So, to maximalists and
minimalists and everyone in
the middle, relax and have fun!
It’s your turn to shine.
