1. Riding the Wave
Scalloped edges, soft corners, wavy lines—we’re here for it all.
Our obsession with curved forms in design has been lingering, and we’re not complaining. From sinuous furniture silhouettes to undulating patterns in textiles and wallpapers, there’s a special sense of movement and dynamism in our living spaces. Think curved sofas, rippling wall murals, and organic-shaped décor accents that effortlessly evoke a sense of harmony and flow.

2. A Trip Down Nostalgia Lane
There’s comfort to be found in the years of yore, and we’re leaning into it.
This spring, design takes a nostalgic turn as we pay homage to the past with a contemporary twist. Think mid-century modern accents, floral wallpapers reminiscent of grandma’s house, and cherished heirlooms given a new lease on life.
3. More is (Still) More
From rich textures to eclectic patterns, we’re reveling in the joy of excess.
When it comes to maximalism, layering is key. Think lush velvet sofas, ornate tapestries, and gallery walls adorned with an eclectic mix of art and artifacts.

4. Less Rules, More Fun
Throw caution to the wind and be yourself.
This spring, spontaneity and creativity take center stage, even leaning into fantastical and surrealist vibes. Mix and match styles with abandon, combine unexpected colors and textures and don’t be afraid to let your personality shine through.

5. The Sustainability Factor
We’re always aiming to minimize our carbon footprint without compromising on style.
From upcycled furniture to energy-efficient lighting solutions, design takes a conscious turn as we prioritize eco-friendly materials and ethical production practices. This can look like embracing natural materials such as wood, bamboo, and cork, and seeking out brands that prioritize sustainability and transparency in their manufacturing processes.
