When it comes to redecorating your house, it can be a struggle to maintain a balance between on style trends and timeless classics. This can be even more important if you are looking to sell your house in the near future.
With the general uncertainty in the housing market showing no signs of disappearing, any small change could make a huge difference to the likelihood that your house will sell. To investigate this further, Heal’s looked into what exactly the British public are looking for in their home design when they are on the hunt for a new house.
Choosing a style that will last
One of the most difficult decisions has to be choosing a style that will last. Something that will stand the test of time and live through emerging trends. By analysing Google Search trend data, we were able to track the popularity of some of the most sought-after décor trends from the past decade.
Using this information, we determined which trends have come and stayed and which have very much gone! From the data above, it’s very apparent that the most popular trends like shabby chic, Bohemian and the currently popular Scandanavian-style, dip in and out of fashion. Following this, Heal’s asked the British public what they look for in décor when hunting for a new home.
Decisions, decisions…
From a survey of 1,000 UK residents, Heal’s found that currently the most desired décor for Brits is the clean-cut, Scandinavian-style, with a whopping 33% of people choosing this as their most preferred look.
This trend was closely followed by a traditional style (17%) and art deco (16%). Surprisingly (or perhaps not) the Scandanavian-style décor style came out on top for both men and women.
If you’re looking at putting your house on the market and live in the Belfast, Cardiff or Glasgow areas, now is the time to upgrade your décor so it oozes Scandi vibes! The least popular décor for us Brits was the once very popular shabby chic (3%).
Think blank canvas over cluttered and bold
With so many variations in what people are looking for in their next home, it’s clear from our research that it’s important to ensure your home is presented in the best way possible in order for it to sell.
Over a quarter of Brits struggle to visualise how a room will look with different décor and furniture, with 25% of people unable to visualise other potential styles and over a third (36%) only finding it moderately easy.
Our study showed that almost double the number of women than men found visualising different styles extremely easy, with 37% of men saying they find it very difficult to visualise a room in a completely different style to theirs.
Aurore Martial, Founder of Domus Venues confirmed that neutral tones are the best way forward when preparing a home for a sale, but that doesn’t mean you need to depersonalise your home.
“When looking to sell I’d say yes, go for neutral tones, but by all means avoid the staged furniture look! Staged flats all look the same with grey furniture, grey walls, exposed bulbs in line, and totally lack personality.”
What are people actually looking for?
Your furniture choices are extremely important when it comes to presenting your home if you’re ready to sell. Our survey data showed a clear selection of items and elements to embrace, and those to stay well away from. Think real wood floors (92%), oversized mirrors for creating the impression of more natural light (64%) and built-in wardrobes and storage (64%), ideal if people don’t want to bring these bulky items with them when they move.
The major décor faux pas to avoid are definitely those retro 70’s fluffy toilet seat covers (100%), wording written on the walls, for example the ‘live laugh love’ stickers (83%) and taxidermy (80%)!
With taste changing from person to person, Aurore Martial offers the below advice on how to style your home, to ensure your purchases last as well as making your home look appealing to potential buyers.
“Focus on great furniture, a mix of design classics and statement pieces - because these will stay with you for a long time! Pick something you like, in a harmonious palette. Something that can move with you from place to place, or something that will look good with a different background colour.”
It’s safe to say that if you’re looking to sell your home, the British people want to see a clean-cut, Scandinavian vibe that they can imagine themselves living in when they come for a viewing. Think neutral tones with small touches of personality such as houseplants and impressive pieces of artwork, and your house is bound to be snapped up in no time.

Tips & advice
Pantone has announced its 2019 Colour of the Year as Living Coral, a bright and uplifting pink-orange hue symbolising “our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits.” The choice feels incredibly apt - in a year that promises uncertainty, both politically and economically, it’s only natural that we look to other areas to bring us something more positive.
Having analysed ‘macro-influences’ over the past year, Living Coral is a surprisingly cheerful choice, perhaps suggesting an uncertain world is finding comfort in bold, confident colours.
Pantone say that Living Coral is also a response to the increasingly prominent digital landscape that we find ourselves in and represents our desire to seek “authentic and immersive experiences that enable connection and intimacy.” The colour represents colours found in nature and the digital sphere, highlighting the human desire to connect both online and offline.
Living Coral is an orange-pink hue with a golden undertone. Image Source: Pantone As Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Colour Institute, explains “Colour is an equalising lens through which we experience our natural and digital realities and this is particularly true for Living Coral.
With consumers craving human interaction and social connection, the humanising and heartening qualities displayed by the convivial PANTONE Living Coral hit a responsive chord.”
The colour also shines a light on the importance of our coral reefs in providing shelter and nourishment for much of our sea life, something that is threatened by global warming and our changing ecosystem. The term ‘Living Coral’ is a stark contrast to the large amounts of dead and bleached coral found in our oceans.
Following on from last year’s Ultra Violet, Living Coral is described as “an animating and life-affirming coral hue with a golden undertone that energizes and enlivens with a softer edge.” The colour is predicted to dominate the design world over the coming year, in everything from clothing to homeware.
The Monroe Bed coming to Heal's in Spring 2019.
Whether you use it within your home accessories or as a statement colour for your bed, Living Coral is a perfect accent colour for offsetting cooler grey and blue tones. Our Monroe bed, launching later this year, will be available in a coral linen, perfect for those wanting to inject a pop of colour to their bedrooms. Effortlessly mixing generous proportions with feminine, sweeping lines, the warm tone is the perfect colour to highlight its winged headboard.
Alternatively, for a more understated look, opt for smaller items of furniture or home accessories to bring coral into your home. Take a look at our Living Coral inspired picks below:
The idea that small spaces are destined to be cramped and uncomfortable is wrong – a small space can be every bit as elegant and stylish as a large one. It’s all down to how you lay out, furnish and accessorise the room. With the right tips, styling your small space doesn’t have to be a dreaded and difficult process; it can be a fun and rewarding challenge.
Good design is always important, but it’s crucial when space is at a premium. Tiny details make a big difference in small rooms, so each element needs to be carefully selected. There’s no room for unnecessary furniture or artwork that’s not quite right.
You need to love and use everything you put in a small space. Whether you’re looking for inspiration to style your small living room, bedroom or dining room, let our comprehensive guide help you decorate your space. -
Small Living Room Ideas
Make your living room work better for you with space-enhancing and multi-functional furniture.
Furniture
When considering sofas for a small home, a luxury loveseat is a great option. With a generous chair for two to share, a modern loveseat is ideal for snuggling on cosy nights. You have enough room for your partner or extra space to stretch out if you’re by yourself.
For another great sofa choice, explore our Brunel range, available in two, four and corner seater options. This compact and functional sofa is perfect for city dwellers who need a comfy place to relax but might be short on space. Inspired by both Mid-Century Modern and Industrial styles, it complements most design aesthetics.
The Brunel has a detachable footstool meaning it can be styled as either a left or right-handed chaise You don’t have to sacrifice having a coffee table in a small living room. Go for a round coffee table around which you can easily place other pieces, a nest of tables that neatly layer underneath one another or a glass coffee table to give an airy, spacious feel to the room.
Use cleverly designed wall mounting or freestanding shelves to maximise your storage space. These pieces are ideal for displaying decorative knick-knacks, ceramics, framed photos and books.
Accessories
For a small living space, use abstract artwork and rugs as a focal point to distract the eye. Be sure to keep it minimalist – you don’t want to overcrowd the space and make it feel even smaller. Using white, light grey and other pale colour schemes lets light bounce off the walls, creating the illusion of a larger space. Introduce a pop of colour with plush cushions in vibrant colours and prints.
This Purlin rug creates the illusion of a longer space thanks to its graphic line pattern. Tall lighting and a bright colour scheme create a feeling of height and space. Styled here with the neatly proportioned Wallis sofa.
Let plants add depth to your small living room; they help to fool the eye into thinking there’s more to the room than there actually is. Well-placed greenery brings a bit of the outdoors into your home.
Styling tip: keep seating close together to create an intimate and cosy atmosphere.
Small Bedroom Ideas
Turn your snug room into a dreamy retreat with smart bedroom furniture and accessories.
Furniture
Proportion matters a lot in a small space. When choosing a bed to suit your small bedroom, make sure you choose the right size. Going for too large a bed will throw off the room’s sense of balance and may come at the sacrifice of bedside tables.
Skip the headboard; it will only make your bedroom appear more cramped. Instead, opt for plenty of layers and cushions to make your bed feel more inviting. Look to multi-functional sofa beds as an alternative to regular beds, especially in guest bedrooms.
The Buri sofa bed has pocket sprung base providing a soft platform on which to sit and sleep For bedside tables, round ones offer a bit more space, while square ones line up perfectly against the bed’s form – it’s up to your style preference.
More important is the table’s base. Go for a piece that’s not bulky or box-like, but rather a single drawer unit on slim legs to create a sense of air flowing through. You can also skip a bedside table entirely and instead put a chair next to your bed. It doubles as extra seating if you have guests and a place to put the books and magazines you’re reading. This works best if you have ceiling or wall-mounted lighting.
For a similar look, take a look at this black wall lamp by Gubi. A wall mounted light frees up valuable bedside table space. If you can’t squeeze a wardrobe into your small bedroom, use a sturdy clothes rail instead. Or a bed with built-in storage in the form of drawers neatly tucked into the frame.
Accessories
Add full-length mirrors either on the floor or against the wall to make a small bedroom feel larger. Simple and space-saving bedroom lighting will serve you well; a pendant light or wall sconce free up valuable floor and table space. For a chic bedroom look, place a neutral toned fur rug and soft cushions or throws to finish off the room with a dose of cosiness.
The Push Floor Standing mirror has hidden storage behind it. Styled here with pieces from the Morten collection.
Styling tip: set your bed against the window to save on wall space. The window and curtains also create a focal point and make the room feel sunnier and airier.
Small Dining Room Ideas
With a few good décor ideas, you can make the most of your limited dining space – whether it’s an actual room or just a little nook.
Furniture
Use one of our round dining tables to enhance both your dining experience and dining space. Circular tables are great for socialising, so they’re an excellent option if you entertain frequently. A light wood finish or glass will help to keep your space feeling open.
This circular table by ercol has space saving flexibility of drop leaves on either side when the table is not in use Choose space-saving dining room stools or ones that are stackable – they take up less space but still provide the extra seating you need to host larger groups.
Accessories
While you might want to be restrained when it comes to furnishing and accessorising in a small dining room, you can let loose with your tableware. Don’t hold back – add bold colours and patterns as much as you can. This is your chance to make a statement at your next dinner party or perk up a weeknight takeaway. Hang a designer pendant light or chandelier over your dining table to elevate your small space with a sense of grandeur.
The Dakara range is rich with colour and features an eye catching reactive glaze design.
Styling tip: keep your space multi-purpose – your dining table can double as a desk when you’re working from home.
Furnishing your first apartment, new home or redesigned space is an exciting time. With so much choice, it’s tempting to go out and splurge on an array of furniture and home accessories at your nearest chain store.
But before you exhaust your budget, consider the following key factors for every piece you want to buy: Is it necessary? Is it adaptable? Is it high quality? Is it well-designed? Is it a fake? Is it a trend item? Will it still have the same appeal in five years’ time?
Answering these questions helps to decide when to invest in a piece of furniture and when you can get away with something inexpensive. Lot of elements can make a piece of furniture a good investment.
It could be a classic that will never go out of style and can be passed down to future generations. It could be a great quality item that you rely on every day. It could be a piece that serves multiple functions in your home. Ultimately, investment furniture pieces are the ones that will give you top value for your money.
Let’s look at investment pieces that are worth spending a bit more on.
Invest in classics – both past and future
What makes a piece of furniture classic? It’s a design that’s stood the test of time and looks just as good now as it did decades ago. Interior design trends are great, but they come and go. You don’t want to be stuck with a whole flat full of dated furniture in a decade’s time. Save your biggest splurges for pieces that will last a lifetime and beyond.
The Mistral Sofa & The Wallis Sofa
These days, people are spending more time than ever on their sofas. More people work from home, eat meals on their sofa rather than at the dining table, or binge-watch box sets in their free time. With all the hours spent on it, it’s important to select a quality sofa that’s well-designed and constructed to last.
The Mistral Sofa in Midnight Blue velvet
Our sophisticated Mistral Sofa brings 1950s style with a contemporary approach, offering timeless interior design for your space. Inspired by a mid-century modern aesthetic, this sofa adds a touch of vintage glamour to the home, remaining one of our most popular pieces for over a decade.
Choosing a sofa with a sturdy birch wood frame, like the Mistral, provides a lifetime guarantee – making it a great investment furniture piece. The Mistral sofa’s available in a range of sizes and fabrics to suit your home.
If you’re looking for a statement furniture piece that’s also a great investment, explore our skillfully upholstered Wallis Sofa. An exclusive collaboration with acclaimed designer Russell Pinch, it brings a modern take to the classic wingback sofa.
The Wallis sofa in Emerald Varese Velvet
A compact yet spacious design, the Wallis sofa is available as a generous three or four-seater style. Echoing a classic shape, it will no doubt add an elegant touch to your home's interior.
The Eames Lounge Chair & The Egg Chair
Ensuring comfort and longevity, the Eames Lounge Chair from Vitra is crafted with soft leather and plywood, allowing it to age beautifully. Regarded as one of the most iconic designs of its time, this piece personifies mid-century cool, making it the perfect investment piece for years to come.
The Eames Lounge Chair
While our elegant Egg Chair ensures the same, it offers a design that’s still as futuristic as it was in 1958, when Arne Jacobsen designed it. This cutting-edge style brings modernist luxury to any room. Use these leather chairs as a corner piece or an addition to your sofa arrangement.
The Egg Chair
The Cross-extending Dining Table
If you’re looking for the perfect dining table that your family can gather around for years to come – look no further! Our cross-extending dining table is the best furniture piece to enhance both your dining experience and dining space. It’s practical and adaptable; simple lines make this design one with a lasting impression.
The Cross Extending Dining Table
The extending table is adjustable, designed with a contemporary shaped base and two panelled leaves cleverly concealed within the frame. It quickly reconfigures for extra dining space, or for moving to a smaller or larger room. Our extending dining table complements any living space.
Invest in quality – where it really counts
All furniture is important, but some pieces can really affect your quality of life. You might not notice the lack of quality in a cheap side table, but you definitely will in a cheap mattress. Invest more money in the pieces that will impact you the most.
A great mattress
Investing in a quality mattress is essential. It ensures that you get a good night’s sleep, reduces the risk of back pain and allergies, and helps keep you healthy. We spend a third of our lives sleeping, so it’s important to get the most out of our slumber. When buying a mattress, be sure to select a type that best suits your needs: A pocket-sprung mattress with hand nested springs perfectly supports your movements while you sleep. Latex foam mattresses also offer hypoallergenic temperature regulation. To combine the best of both, choose a hybrid mattress.
Luxury Mattresses
It’s also important to choose the right mattress feel: A soft mattress is best for those who sleep on their side, while medium mattresses are great if you tend to change positions during sleep. Firm mattresses suit those who tend to sleep on their backs and need extra back and neck support. Generally, it’s safe to say that the more you pay for a mattress, the better quality you’ll get. Investing in a quality mattress means investing in quality sleep. All our mattresses come with a 10-year guarantee or lifetime guarantee.
Sturdy outdoor furniture
When considering outdoor furniture, it’s important to go for pieces that are highly adaptable, durable and built to withstand extreme weather conditions. Be prepared to pay more for garden furniture made from high-quality materials and built to last.
The Tanso Range Our robust Tanso garden furniture collection is made from weather resistant Grade A Teak. The range is perfectly suitable for outdoor use, yet its well-designed and detailed aesthetic means it looks just as good indoors as well.
Invest in adaptability – to get more from each piece
What’s better than one great piece of furniture? A great piece of furniture that can double as different pieces. It’s worth spending more on an item if you’ll get multiple uses out of it – think of it as saving the money you’d spend on buying two pieces.
A versatile sofa bed
A sofa bed is a great option when space is at a premium. Our adaptable sofa beds effortlessly turn any space into a bedroom or spare room. It’s one of the most versatile and hard-working pieces of furniture you could own. Providing the perfect sit or sleep day and night, a great sofa bed is as comfortable as a regular bed. Perfect for overnight guests, a sleeper sofa provides great style and a contemporary touch to your home.
The Snooze sofa bed
A reversible rug
Not all investment pieces have to be expensive. Decorate your space with rugs to transform your room without having to pay a fortune. When picking a rug to splurge on, go for neutral tones to not risk growing tired of brighter colours. Our reversible rugs give two equally stunning patterns in subtle light tones, allowing you to refresh your seasonal décor. Making a great investment item, rugs tend to get better with time and are easy to take with you when you move as well.
The Menda Reversible Rug
When selecting investment furniture pieces for your home, keep in mind that there’s more to consider than the piece’s initial appeal. Ensure that each piece is highly functional, well-designed and well-constructed, so that your furniture will last a lifetime, be integral to your home and can be handed down to the next generation.
It can be a challenge to find well designed, high-quality furniture without the huge price tag. To make things easier we’re turning our attention to the Heal’s designs that balance quality and cost, proving you don’t have to spend a fortune to own a piece of designer furniture.
Our Morten and Brunel ranges offer exceptional value and while they are different in style, they are equal in quality. Both are the creations of two talented furniture designers; Brunel was the brainchild of the award-winning Rob Scarlett while Morten was designed by John Jenkins, a celebrated furniture designer who worked at Heal’s as a buyer for many years.
To showcase these two beautiful ranges we invited two pros in the art of styling – Kate Watson-Smyth and Tiffany Grant-Riley - to reimagine the front windows of our Tottenham Court Road store using pieces from either collection. What resulted were two very different rooms sets that were true to their interior styles.
Tiff's Morten space
Tiff is drawn towards the minimal, often taking inspiration from Scandinavian homes. She embraces the slow living lifestyle which writes about on her blog, Curate and Display, and is drawn towards a simple aesthetic often pairing muted colours against a shot of black. The Morten range was a natural fit as its light oak and clean lines are unmistakably Nordic in style.
Tiff started by painting her backdrop with a light blue shade which she has on the skirting boards of her children’s rooms in her own home. The pale blue immediately created a light, airy feel which complemented the whitewashed oak of the Morten collection.
Layered with textures and throws, she created a cosy and inviting bedroom space completed by two Fabian pendant lights that draw the eye upwards towards a feature wall of layered pages she ripped out from books.
The Morten chest of drawers displayed some carefully considered touches like luxury hand wash by Tom Dixon and the Jewel vase by Louise Roe while a wooden platter by Nkuku was chosen to mirror the materials of the collection. Her space seamlessly transitions into a stylish dining area that incorporates the new Morten dining table and bench.
Styled with pieces from Nkuku and Menu, the table is given its finish touch with the Olson Glass Dome Pendant that hangs elegantly above. Watch her space come to life here:
Kate's Brunel Apartment
Kate Watson-Smyth is an interiors journalist that has been contributing to the national newspapers for the last twenty years. Her blog, Mad About The House, has won numerous awards thanks to its inspiring and insightful content, acting as a sourcebook for modern living.
A firm believer in the idea that a home should tell a story, Kate describes her style as Urban Glamour with natural wood and touches of metal never far from her styling. Kate opted for the industrial-style Brunel collection which combines solid oak and powder coated steel legs in each design.
Kate used Brunel to create a chic and comfortable apartment space with the dining table dividing sleeping from sitting. She decided to add various shades of pink to unite the scheme across each room and used a mix of rugs, cushions and accessories to bring the space to life.
Her dining area reflected today’s need for small spaces to be multifunctional – a typewriter sits next to a selection of tableware giving the impression that someone may have just popped away to make a cup of tea before they sit back down to work.
She used two of the Brunel Lean To Shelves in her living room space to display an array of homeware, making sure to keep things minimal to highlight the beauty of the design. The Brunel Lean To Shelves is great for renters in particular as they don't need to be screwed into the walls and can easily be taken apart and moved.
In the bedroom, she offset her grey bedding with colourful scatter cushions, a wool throw and a patterned lampshade by Scion which echoes a similar scheme in her living room.
Known for its uncomplicated, clean aesthetic mid-century modern style still looks as fresh today as it did 50 years ago. Organic shapes, tapered legs, and natural materials combine to create designs that are both stylish and comfortable.
Dating back to the period between the mid-1930s and the mid-1960s, mid-century modern style emerged as a popular design aesthetic after WWII. More than just interior design and décor, the term refers to architecture, art, literature, furniture and accessories.
Nowadays, as an interior design and decorating style, mid-century modern encompasses everything from an Arne Jacobsen’s Egg chair to a gold and wood Starburst wall clock. It can regularly be seen filtering through the work of 21st-century designers and has achieved cult-like status with design-lovers everywhere. If you want to embrace mid-century modern style in your home, these are the most common elements to consider.
Furniture
You will know mid-century furniture when you see it – it’s sleek, with clean lines and sophisticated curves that make it instantly recognisable. Seating For a sofa that boasts a vintage yet glamourous look, explore the Mistral sofa range.
These large visual pieces have beautiful upholstery, with matching piping and strong symmetrical lines. Its tapered feet are classic features of modernist design and the sofa can easily be accessorised with mid-century-inspired patterned scatter cushions.
The Mistral sofa
If you’re looking to invest in something with a smaller footprint, consider a statement chair. Although there are many designer chairs available today, there are two mid-century modern designers who stand out from the competition: Eero Saarinen and Charles & Ray Eames. Eero Saarinen's designs employ modern materials in graceful, organic shapes that create perfectly-curved chairs such as the famous Womb and Tulip chairs.
These ground-breaking pieces were designed to support countless lounging positions providing ultimate comfort. Another staple of mid-century design is the Ottoman lounge chair by Charles and Ray Eames.
It’s the ideal way to combine comfort, sophistication and functionality in your home - perfect as a standalone feature or paired with a wooden table. These chairs are conveniently available in a variety of colours to suit every mid-century style home.
Charles & Ray Eames, 1956
Style notes: Mid-century modern interiors rely on the use of fewer choice pieces. The aim is to not clutter your space. It’s about adopting a minimalist style in open plan rooms to draw attention to each piece of furniture. Organic Forms Mid-century design is often free-form, unpredictable and flowing in appearance. Fortunately, the modernist design approach hasn’t changed much over the centuries.
We can incorporate fascinating pieces, such as the organic glass coffee table from Isamu Noguchi, into our homes. The Noguchi table has a solid wood base consisting of two identical pieces that create symmetry and stability. It’s the perfect centrepiece for a mid-century style living room.
The Noguchi table
Style notes: Mid-century modern homes embrace the sensibility of clean, easy to maintain and functional living spaces. You should keep your look simple and unique. Wood Mid-20th-century designers commonly used natural materials in their designs. Using wood can give even the most contemporary space a mid-century modern look.
To create a nature-inspired style, consider using a wooden dining room table, chest of drawers, television AV unit or wardrobe. The Romana dining table by Ercol is one of those rare designs that never dates ensuring stylish practicality for years to come.
The Romana dining table by Ercol
Ercol emerged in the post-war era with a passion for creating furniture that was both well-designed and well-made. Nearly 70 years later the brand’s design icons are still as stylish today as they were in the 1950s and its long-lasting reputation for creating pieces that stand the test of time is what sets it apart from other modern-day furniture makers.
A staple part of the Heal’s offering, Ercol embodies everything that we love about good design: expert craftsmanship, quality materials, and a beautiful mid-century aesthetic that captures the optimism that Britain felt about its design potential at the time.
Wood cabinets, ceiling details and doors can also be used to add warmth to your space. Whichever way you choose to use timber, investing in carved wood furnishings will bring everything together nicely.
The Butterfly Chair by Ercol
Style notes: When working wood into your space, be sure to utilise one range of colours and avoid using contrasting hues. Finding pieces with similar undertones – warm yellows, reds and oranges, cool greys, or neutral beiges – will help to keep a room unified.
Home Accessories
Lighting When it comes to lighting, there’s no need to be modest and using unique and eye-catching fixtures are encouraged. For lighting inspiration, explore the collection of highly sought-after pendant lights, and table and floor lamps in unique shapes from American modernism designer George Nelson.
Colour and Pattern
For your interior, be sure to explore earthy hues of orange, mustard yellow, olive green, soft blue and brown. Consider George Nelson’s iconic atomic and sunburst clock designs, which are ideal for hanging alongside modern art and sculptures in a living room.
Or you can simply decorate your space with an amber vase, yellow velvet cushions or a vintage desk lamp to give it a mid-century modern feel. Use asymmetrical and abstract patterned cushions and throws for an effective way to add interest to a mid-century modern style home.
With a strong affinity for the aesthetics and philosophy of mid-century design, Eleanor Pritchard’s textile collections and rectangular cushions reinterpret such iconic styles for a modern day audience. Using understated geometric patterns, calm greys and blues are mixed with shots of yellow and green to bring a modern twist to British heritage.
The Charlock Throw by Eleanor Pritchard
Style notes: Home accessories are the place to add creativity, texture and pizzazz to mid-century modern style. Reject the minimalist approach here in favour of pieces that pack a punch.
