What summer colours and trends should I consider for my bedroom?

Summer is fast approaching; it’s time to switch your attention to that home refresh. Tasty recipes for garden parties and colour co-ordinated outfits have been put together, but now it’s time to put that same energy into an easy home makeover. Wherever possible, we try to promote small tweaks for big impact rather than ripping apart your whole bedroom each summer.

A taste of Scandinavia

Scandinavian trends are taking the rest of the world by storm. If you’ve been browsing the net looking for ideas then we are sure you have had a whole lot of Scandinavia coming your way. Whether it’s put to you as Scandinavian chic or Scandinavian simplicity, there is currently a hot trend towards elegant minimalism and clean simplicity in the industry.

Expect to see a whole load of natural light, white walls, natural textures, and an emphasis on calming shapes. The thinking behind it is a desire to restore a feeling of zen and harmony to the home. Emphasis is put on wellness and security which is why reduced clutter, open spaces and soft natural lighting are all techniques which are incorporated to achieve a calming outcome.

Creating a healthy environment

As we adapt to a new normal, we are spending more time at home than ever before. This has led to many of us looking to create wellness hubs and happy spaces which encourage mindfulness and positive thinking in our bedrooms.

Introducing clever touches to bring the outside indoors through house plants, wooden and stone accessories can help achieve a peaceful abode. Using smart storage ottoman beds or divan beds with drawers can reduce clutter to open up your bedroom and contribute towards creating a peaceful setting.

Cottagecore styling

Cottagecore is inspired by country life, centred around harmony with nature. It embraces character pieces and imperfect rustic décor, not frowning upon clutter as a criminal. 

Handmade accessories, vintage items and floral items are fused together to create a modern throwback.

On trend with colour

Colour trends sometimes change more often than the great British weather. However, this summer, greens and yellows are not taking any prisoners, fighting it out at the top of the popularity list to see who will prevail.

Greens bolster a whole range, capturing dark bold tones with Emerald shades as well as a sage green offering for those of us that are a little less punchy with our colour choices. 

Yellow tones do offer a similar spectrum ranging from pale yellows to a deeper shade but a turmeric shade is the one that is getting designers excited.

If you’re not quite ready to take the plunge with a green or turmeric bed, you can incorporate colour through botanicals and plants to feed off that thirst for nature post pandemic. Feeling your way in to striking colours through bedding and linens is always a good starting point to feel your way into popular trends.

Got that summer feeling?

There’s always a lot to look forward to in summer so get ahead of the game and make sure your bedroom is ready to take twenty-two by storm. 

We understand everyone has different tastes and preferences. We do hope we have given you some food for thought and interesting ideas. Once the makeover is complete, do make sure you send us your transformation so we can feature them! Contact us via Instagram, Facebook, or email!
