Fresh ideas for a Spring update

Fresh ideas for a Spring update

As the days become longer, with the promise of sunshine to come, our thoughts turn to our homes. Specifically, how to bring some spring into our worn-out winter colour schemes.

When it’s dark and cold, we want our homes to be cosy and warm, but as the season changes, we want colour and light. Here are our tips on how to effortlessly transition into spring.

Whitewashed hues

Try bleached-out tones, natural wood and shades of blues to bring a touch of coastal chic to your interior.

Banish winter gloom and bring in the brights! We love intense shades of pink and green to mark the changing of the season.
