COMFORTS
Just as we all switch up our wardrobes when the seasons turn a new leaf, so too do we look at our homes in a fresh light. Our homes deserve a dose of seasonal spice, whether that means a decór overhaul or simply laying down a new rug. Here, we show just how to up the comfort factor in every room.
DAY DREAMING
Updating your bedroom for autumn is all about adding feelings of warmth, security and comfort. Allow yourself to be inspired by nature and enrich your space with a colour palette of grey, pink and blue which embodies a sense of calm and tranquility that a picturesque sky at dusk evokes.
While the most important piece of furniture a bedroom can have is inarguably a bed, an accent armchair is a close second. One of the easiest ways to inject luxury and opulence into the space you call your sanctuary, a bedroom chair acts as a spot from which to curl up and read a book, a second living room to relax and watch your favourite shows, or a place to lay out tomorrow’s outfit - a multifunctional piece.
Having fun with layers shouldn’t be reserved to just your wardrobe, use blankets, knitted throws and cushions to create cosy layers that will wrap you in comfort each night.
LOVE TO LOUNGE
Anyone with a favourite nook on the couch can attest that there is an art to whiling away the day doing absolutely nothing, and it all starts with having an extra-cosy living room from which to laze around guilt-free. Luckily, thanks to a wave of new contemporary designers, a penchant for comfort doesn’t have to mean a sacrifice of style.
Curved furniture such as an armchair and pouffe can create an instant sense of calm as their rounded nature offsets the boxy dimension of a room and gives the eye a natural place to rest.
While finding a comfortable couch and stylish coffee table are living room essentials, the real magic is in the decorative details. Sculptural, stout, textured or tapered, vases have become the most popular home accessory - and for good reason. Not only will it show off your chosen foliage (whether fresh or dried), a modern vase is now a decorative piece in its own right.
COOK UP A STORM
If there’s one room in your home that absolutely needs to be functional, it’s the kitchen. But since it’s the heart of the home, a kitchen should also be stylish and inviting. Luckily, the two aren’t mutually exclusive. With a few clever gadgets, a collection of chic cookware and some dining essentials, your kitchen can easily be transformed from functional to fashionable.
