Back to Nature

• Nature is in this year; and by in, we mean “indoors”
• Bring the outdoors in with natural textures like wood, cork, stone (link to natural stone/Terrazzo write up)
• Wooden textures have always been a hit with architects as it is versatile and can be paired with other material/textures/colours to give either a rustic traditional feel or modern/contemporary vibe. It’s able to work in both but not limited to either kinds of settings
• In the past, lighter hues were in style but the trend is moving away from it and towards darker tones and more grainy textures.
• People are welcoming a sleeker, urban style which coincidentally goes with darker calmer wooden tones.
• Pairing dark wooden grained textures with coloured finishing give a space a contrasting colour palette which is aesthetically desirable.
• Green also pairs great with darker wood and coincidentally, the pantone colour of the year; green, is in trend and at the top of the list for must haves in interior decorating and styling.
• Wood = Versatile, able to adapt to whatever feel you are going for
• Unless options with pairing, pairs easily with a lot of textures.
• Blonde wooden tones are great for achieving a warmer feel for your space but the sophistication of darker wooden tones are currently all the rage.
