Trend Alert | Your guide to our Top 2020 Int...

The beginning of a new year means new resolutions, new ideas, and new trends. Whether you’re a follower of what’s current, or lead with your own style, it’s hard not to fall in love with the latest trends - taking shape in the world of interiors. Here's how you can incorporate some of these styles to refresh your home.

Natural + Neutral

Already we've seen a growing movement towards natural materials and organic elements in the home. More homeowners will opt for timber pieces and earthy tones, to pay homage to the beautiful and natural environment we live in. You may remember when we wrote a focus piece on our Mangrove collection last year. Well, these beautifully hand-crafted rattan & wicker pieces are still growing in popularity. Combining modern and traditional design, they infuse a warm and natural ambience into your space. This connection to the natural world will be continued throughout the home in the form of earthy colour palettes consisting of terracotta tones, deep olive greens and warm brown hues.

The Urbane Property Stylist director Emma Tobin has seen an increasing use of natural materials over the last 12 months.

“I’ve added a lot of rattan furniture to my property styling collection recently. It’s on trend, but I’ve also seen more natural timber in the fixtures of new builds. I use rattan pieces to complement these” she says.

Whilst, rattan has been in and out of trend in the past, it can maintain a constant presence in the home. “Use it in moderation. Incorporating one or two rattan furnishings will remain stylish long after it’s no longer on trend.”

Statement Velvet

We all love a good velvet piece, and in 2020 it’s here to stay. Up the colour-anti with a sofa or armchair in bold rich hues and moody accents, to make a luxurious statement and add a touch of much-needed texture to any room. Style your living area with modern wooden tv units.

Recently, we’ve seen a movement towards coloured velvet sofas and we are on board with this trend. A navy blue velvet sofa paired with metallic accents will give your room a luxurious moody feel. Add style to your living area with our smooth blue velvet sofas. Velvet couches are great for extravagance styled homes. Or be bold and opt for a sofa that will stand out in any space. Velvet orange will add a retro-inspired feel to your space, whilst velvet green will inject regal elegance and class.
