The Weekly Edit

This week we talk about ceiling system trends and have a colour focus on brown.

We also talk about the benefits of using wool for carpets and bedding as we can now source these items with gorgeous South Island wool.



1. Ceiling Trends

Ceilings have come a long way from basic white hues. They now serve as essential elements in Interior Design, capable of completely altering the ambiance of a room.

Departing from traditional flat designs, modern ceilings are breaking boundaries and making bold statements.  Recent ceiling trends include the emergence of more daring geometric shapes and patterns such as hexagons, triangles and circular motifs infusing spaces with visual interest and style.

Additionally there is a rise in the use of natural material like wooden planks, exposed beams and stone, alongside vibrant colours, gradients and futuristic designs.



2. Focus on Brown

Brown has emerged as a prominent colour in current interior design trends, infusing spaces with warmth and sophistication. From earthy hues to rich chocolates, brown paint colours are being embraced for their ability to create cozy and inviting atmospheres.

Additionally, wood elements in various shades of brown are experiencing a resurgence, adding natural texture and depth to interiors. Whether it's light oak floors, walnut furniture, or mahogany accents, incorporating wood brings a sense of organic elegance to any room.

The versatility of brown allows it to complement a wide range of styles, from rustic and traditional to modern and minimalist, making it a go-to choice for interior designers.



 3. Wool is the Way

Known for its exceptional quality and durability, NZ wool provides longevity and resilience. With naturally insulating properties it makes it ideal for maintaining warmth in colder climates.

Furthermore, wool's inherent resistance to stains and dirt, along with its hypoallergenic qualities, promotes a healthier indoor environment. Its ability to absorb moisture and release it slowly helps control humidity levels, preventing mould and mildew growth.

Beyond functionality, New Zealand wool exudes luxurious softness and texture, elevating the aesthetic appeal of any interior space with its natural beauty and versatility. We can now source gorgeous South Island wool duvet inners, cushion inners, rugs and fabrics so get in touch today!

Loving for 2024

 I am currently am obsessing over oval mirrors. These add a touch of elegance and sophistication to a space, while also providing a unique visual focal point.

Design Tip

Opt for strategically placed mirrors to enhance natural light and visually expand small spaces. Placing mirrors across from windows or near light sources can help bounce light around the room making it feel brighter and more open.

Tips For March

Things are starting to unwind from the festive season so to keep the social life alive organise a monthly dinner party with friends called “Around the World” where you have to dress and cook food from various countries. Everyone can take turns!
