What’s new and lustworthy

this coming season

The next

BIG

THING

NATURE’S

GEOMETRICS

While geometric patterns

aren’t new, this season’s are

bigger and bolder than ever.

Providing a contrast to the

softer watercolour effects

are trellis, honeycomb and

chequerboard designs. Pair

them with gold for an art

deco look. Scatter from

H&M Home.

LARGE-SCALE MURALS

Whether hand-painted or on wallpaper,

murals have taken a turn for the big and

bold. Think oversized florals, fantasy

landscapes and dreamlike scenes featuring

birds and forests. Find Your Flock

wallpaper from Cara Saven Wall Design.

EMBOSSING

AND QUILTING

“Honeycomb quilting is especially

popular in Europe at the moment and

we’ll be seeing more of it here,” says

Michelle Harris, national sales manager

of LaForma Barcelona Living. Lift a
