Home improvements: Key interior design trends for the autumn season



Here are some of the key design trends for the autumn/winter 2014 season that can be easily incorporated into any home interior project.

Impact of accent colours: For the autumn of 2014, opt for a versatile colour range with soft geometric prints and contrast. Sofas and accent chairs should remain in neutral colours, such as rusty orange or mustard yellow.

Window sheers are back: Transparent, fresh and bright are the words that best describe living and dining window coverings this autumn. It is an easy way to add a little extra drama without having to sacrifice a beautiful view.

Be unique: One-of-a-kind pieces, such as an entry chest or coffee table, will be trending this season. Introduce a different and unique piece into your home.

A splash of colour: Accent walls remain an easy way to add colour to a room and warm up the tone of your living area. Dramatically enhance your space by coating an accent wall in a bright shade.

Old and new: Combining vintage and modern is a key trend this season. The look introduces contrast and is a great way to incorporate a favourite antique.
