Prepare your home for spring

07 March 2022

New season, new house. Spring is about to arrive and with it comes the contagious colours, the softness of the fabrics, the light that invades every corner, and a whole cycle of changes. To make this season feel inside you and your home, take the opportunity to compose your environments with some elements that transmit joy and vivacity, in that which is your refuge.

 

It’s important to strip your home of its winter decorating style and fill it with life. Therefore, the bet is on a mixture of colours, wooden furniture, and plants that bring lightness and amplitude to the environment.

 

See how you can decorate and prepare your home for the arrival of spring.

 

 

Deep cleaning

 

The first step can be the most difficult but also the most important. After a winter snuggled by the fireplace, family moments, and hectic daily life, there is certainly the need to reorganise and refresh your spaces with a deep clean.

 

From glass, windows, and even carpets, take the opportunity to clean everything in greater depth, since you have the good weather allying you in for this task. If your house needs a new paint job, bet on a new wall colour to give it a renewed home feeling and an extra freshness.

 

Take the opportunity to tidy up heavy blankets and warm sheets, but not before sanitising them, for example with a floral-scented laundry detergent. Decoration pieces, in particular lamps, bookcases, decorative items or even curtains are elements that need your care, as they are present throughout the year and need you to disinfect, organise and even renew them so that the details of your home are not lost.

 

 

 

Colour Selection

 

Colours are the literal expression of spring inside our homes. This season is intuitively synonymous with joy and serenity, and all these sensations call for a lighter colour palette, for a greater entry of light into the environments. Pastel shades contrasted with more vibrant colours will make the decoration of your spaces by themselves.

 

As this is a season of transition we can leave the dark and closed shades of winter, to adopt warmer tones and bring more life to the environment.

 

An important aspect to take into consideration when decorating for spring is to evaluate the environment and see which are the best combinations, considering factors such as space and light, since some colours may give a darker tone to the environment and that is not the intention.

 

Warm colours can bring the room the vitality it so desperately needs, subtly but with personalityEither way, the introduction of accents such as colourful cushions, or a single chair with an irreverent and elegant style, can add new life to your spaces.

 

 

 

Nature in space

 

Nature will enter the house this season, so invest in it. Plants bring more life into the home, as well as being excellent decorative elements. Indoor plants help to boost your mood and improve the air quality inside your home.

 

By selecting design decorative elements such as planters, you can add a unique sophistication to the decoration of empty spaces. These pieces compose the space in an elegant and practical way, maintaining the cosiness of the home.

 

In the living room, a way to mark the spring decoration in the environment is to bet on a vase with flowers for the coffee table, or on the dining table of the environment. Using striking colours to match the flowers in the space is another way to reinforce the composition. The living room carpet can, for example, feature a shade that is in harmony with the chosen flowers, as well as the curtains and cushions.

 

In the bedroom, floral bedding sets are excellent options to highlight the presence of nature in your resting space. Decorative elements such as pictures, vases, and lampshades with prints that refer to nature are an incredible complement that help to decorate the space.

 

 

 

 

Wood Furniture

 

Furniture has the power to transform any environment and when you want to bring lighter finishes to your spaces, this is a great option. In spring, the more natural the materials are, the fresher and lighter the space becomes. This season’s bet is on wooden furniture, as it combines warmth and comfort.

 

Wooden furniture is versatile, so don’t be afraid to take risks with your decor. From rustic to contemporary, they are practical and provide a loose but aesthetically appealing look.

 

Wood has a variety of applications. By keeping it raw, the tones, and imperfections are reflected like a work of art, with a matt finish that echoes an elegant touch. Found in the form of a dining table, on the wall, on a lamp, or even a chair, this is definitely the decorating idea for spring that recalls the raw material in its pure state.

 

A great idea to give a fresh touch to your decor is to put decorative baskets and furniture in straw, with a structure of our armchair Natur. As decorative objects, an interesting choice will be macramé. It is the natural elements that will brighten up the environment and make your home more ecological.

 

Changing the arrangement of furniture makes you feel that your home has a new air. If you don’t intend to renew your furniture, rearrange the position of some of the furniture in your home, so that good energy can flow into the space, feeling that you have a totally renewed environment without much effort.
