velvet luxe
Bye-bye boring beige and
outdated upholstery – the
current trend of using
sumptuous fabrics in rich
jewel tones in the home
seems here to stay. Coricraft's
new Maurice velvet fabric is
luxuriously soft and available
in a range of colours, like red,
green and blue, to use on its
couches, chairs, barstools,
ottomans and even beds and
headboards. Pair it with the
brand's recently launched
Haskell chair range, from
r6 999, and you will have a
modern-retro statement piece
that's both comfortable and
stylish. Win-win!

Inspired by the night sky, Love
Milo's new range, Winter Alchemy,
combines constellation designs with
midnight blue fabrics and burnished
brass to add some drama and magic
to cold nights indoors. We love the
star-print cushions and zodiac mugs


  • just add a fleecy rug, light a candle
    and curl up with a good book. Winter
    at home sorted! See lovemilo.com
