Summer Home Collection by FFDM: Featured here is the Poster King Bed.
Okay, so spring is about to come to an end and summer is just about to break forth. The summer home can be a place relaxation, reflection, retreat, quiet and peace. While this is the case, it can also be the hub of exciting activities especially since summer is the season for water sports and vacations.
Summer Is Bright
Summer is a season for bright color trends or it can simply be white. A warmer weather spells moments when people would spend more time cleaning and uncluttering.
A pure white color palette is clean, crisp and refreshing. Bathrooms and kitchens could use white on tiles and cabinetry. Say no to clutter and oversized furniture.
No to Patterns, Yes to Tonal Palette
Say goodbye to energetic patterns. Summer is the time to embrace tonal palette with very minimal use of patterns. People are going to be busy this summer so you must be able to create a place of calm and relaxation.
Your body isn’t the only one that should rest this coming season. Your eyes must also be able to rest as they behold the design elements in your home.
Swap throw pillows or curtains with busy patterns with elements that are more solid and textured. Remember to keep your colors within the same hue family.
Display Spirited Sculptures
Add a different level of appeal in your home by displaying a statement sculpture. This is an ideal trend during summer because is spells a carefree and whimsical attitude.
Summer is all about having fun and celebrating. Pick a sculpture that will surely magnetize the visitors’ eyes.
Paint the Concrete Tiles
These are quickly becoming more widespread. These tiles often show intricate patterns and they are sold in a number of stores.
These tiles work best inside a traditional setting but with the right elements, it can also be used in a modern setting.
Go Boho Chic
Midcentury furniture is slowly making a comeback in homes. Designers now mix Midcentury and Modern pieces together with Moroccan or Bohemian-inspired pieces.
Trendy Pools
One of the biggest trends in the past years are pool parties. These are no longer just for the suburbs anymore. Swimming pools are now being integrated to outdoor spaces – no matter how small.
Even small outdoor spaces can be opportunities to create a sense of relaxation and intimacy.
Still from the Summer Home Collection, here is the lovely Landscape Mirror made more summer-y by the rooster figurines and other colorful elements.
Muted + Natural
Summer is setting the path for muted palettes and fresh materials. Organic shapes are also in according to some well-known designers. Anything that’s breezy and bright will never feel boring. So go ahead and embrace this trend and painting your walls with a neutral hue. Sand hue is perfectly embodied in Sonoma Clay 1242 by Benjamin Moore.
Pop a Little Color
Summer bring with it a lot of bold sounds, flavors and sights. Don’t fear bright and bold colors this upcoming season. Those who shy away from the boldest trends might as well use small pops.
A wonderful example of this is when you use a red chair and let it sit in a mainly neutral room. The color is just enough to be noticed but not in a way that’s intimidating.
Another way to bring the color in is to let in the yellows, blues, oranges, and reds of Mother Nature. Sandy hue is also appropriate for this season.
Brass Is Trendy
The year 2017 is a wonderful year for the reintroduction of brass. Use this lovely metal in interior finishes. Go ahead and be obvious with nautical elements. Let go of your non-metallic furniture knobs and replace them with brass instead. A white dresser would surely be noticed once you install brass knobs.
Finish the look by adding lamps, your collections, knickknacks, and a mirror.
