Style Advice: Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day is just next week, so in today’s blog we thought that we’d give you a little advice on how to introduce a romantic theme to your interiors. Creating a warm atmosphere in your home will help make your day even more special. Don’t worry, we’re not suggesting you completely restyle your home just for February 14th. However, using it as inspiration to add a few small pieces of furniture and a selection of home decorations will help transform your space, creating a look perfect for the other 364 days of the year as well.

If you’ve been too afraid to bring in some bold red furniture up until now, then let Valentine’s Day inspire you. This day is so easily associated with all things red; cards illustrated with cartoon hearts, gorgeous bunches of red roses and boxes of chocolate tied with beautiful red ribbons - so why should our furniture be any different? The Moroso Soft Heart Armchair will make for a bold addition to any room with its stunning red colour, but its heart shape is what especially makes this piece unique.

The Dare Studio Hardy Wingback Sofa will also have an excellent impact on your space and is a fantastic example of how unique designer sofas can completely transform the look of a room. Its compact size makes for a sofa perfect for cuddling up on while watching a movie.

For a more subtle approach to bringing in a romantic charm, introduce items that incorporate elements of red, such as the gorgeous SkLO Float 10 Pendant which has a stunning gradient effect in its glass shade. This light will inject a warm glow into your space, making for a romantic look, especially when placed over a dining table set out for a delicious meal. Similarly, the Waterford Half & Half Rose Vase will act as a beautiful yet understated accent piece in homes with more neutral styles. Its rose glass base will contrast with the green stems of any flower you place in it, while complementing pink and red petals.

Including red accent pieces in your home isn’t the only way to achieve a romantic vibe. Creating a cosy and comfortable environment filled with different textures and layers is ideal for this time of the year. For example, the Asiatic Plush Rug will help to infuse a level of comfort into your home, while adorning contemporary sofas and modern chairs with throws and other soft furnishings will add a Hygge feel.

For another interior style that will still have a fantastic impact, try introducing some curved and soft shaped furniture pieces. These cool and casual shapes will help relax you in your home, while finding products that also boast pastel shades with darker hues will make for a beautiful aesthetic. For example the Artifort Little Tulip Chair will make for a wonderfully subtle accent piece while infusing a modern elegance into your room. For an interesting contrast, installing some more sophisticated products, such as the Linea Verdace Baroozi Pendant Chandelier, which will make for a fabulous centre piece in a room every day of the year, is also an option.
