After a long and cold winter, we often find ourselves looking forward to spring as a point of the year in which to fully regenerate. A time in which to refresh our environment and uplift our composure by reimagining our home interior décor. That said and done, it’s not hard to imagine that a surge of decorative inspiration comes with this particular time of year.
Sonae Arauco influences trends by innovating new decorative concepts and consistently develops decorative solutions to match modern life. As such, we have composed a list of interior design ideas to inspire a new look and feel this coming spring.
Introduce greenery into interior spaces
Living in the warmer southern hemisphere means that natural greenery is often in abundance. Take advantage of springtime’s organic delights by introducing plants and shrubs to your interior as well.
The great thing about plants is that you’re not just limited to oversaturating your home with just greens. Spring flowers like the Barberton Daisy, which have become synonymous with South Africa, offer a wide range of fabulous colour options from deep red to warm and inviting orange and yellows.
If you live somewhere where lighting or garden access is limited, don’t be afraid to go faux! Modern faux plants are near impossible to tell at glance with the benefit of giving off the same fresh appeal as their organic counterparts.
Not only does greenery like flowers and potted shrubs evoke the look and feel of springtime, but are simple solutions that draw attention and leave a deeper impression on your overall décor.
Wall paint and paper
A freshly painted room is well worth the effort! Consider re-creating an entertainment room and use colour to accentuate certain furniture and wall finishings.
For a more refined look try using wallpaper. Ask an interior designer to help you with this, as it is more difficult than it looks to install a clean finish. Modern applications make the process simpler with an option to quickly change out wallpaper décors to match seasonal trends. Inject patterns and textures into your room for a new and easy update.
Stone cladding is a decorative covering made of real or simulated stone. You can use it to layer walls made of concrete, steel or cement. Materials used for cladding can be natural stones like granite, sandstone, slate or materials that look like natural stone and are light in weight like veneer.
If wallpaper doesn’t appeal to you. The authentic look and feel of wall cladding utilising Innovus Decorative Products’ selection of Fantasies, Woodgrains, and Unicolours as an ideal decorative solution, to layer walls made of unsightly concrete or cement, or simply in need of a makeover.
Spring colours like neutrals, or white and bright primaries like yellow, red, or blue make for a bold and seasonal aesthetic. While the trendy options of yellow and red work well with your plants and flowers. Blue is one of the more popular decorative trends of 2021. Innovus Decorative Products’ Shadow Blue Unicolour presents a perfect opportunity to refresh your spring look, So, use it with confidence!
Using lighter fabrics in the bedroom
Wintertime bedding is often clad with heavy sheets and mohair covers for extra insulation. Now that the days are once again getting longer, it’s time to lighten the mood and replace those covers with lighter fabrics such as linen or cotton.
Combine the elements of spring light and an airy bedroom with crisp neutral tones to enhance it’s brightness and expand upon the size of the room. Layering your whites with pale oranges or yellows provides an expert finishing touch and as above, a highlighting dash of primary colours is an excellent way to accentuate your space whilst still keeping a neutral palette.
Crisp white with soft blue tones for your master or spare bedroom have a calming and cool effect. Try them out this season and discover how transformative this simple decorative trick can be for your home interior.
Bespoke Interior changes
We have covered the basics, so now it is time to add the finishing touch to our refreshed décor by including springtime accessories like wall art and custom decorative pieces like baskets or custom prints.
As this is the season for spring cleaning, adding baskets to your home interior or home office space is a fantastic way to reduce clutter and accentuate your room. From kid’s toys to throw blankets and cushions, woven baskets provide excellent storage solutions whilst retaining a chic look and feel.
Exchanging and updating the wall art you keep on display is a fantastic way to rejuvenate your home interior without doing too much. You need not overhaul your entire gallery, but consider switching up a few pieces here and there to keep things looking fresh and timely.
An excellent idea to try is creating your own home prints of travel destinations you have either been to or are still to visit to inspire a personalised look and feel.
We hope that you find our 2021 selection of spring ideas helpful and inspiring! Sonae Arauco would like to wish our avid readers a happy and prosperous springtime!
