DECORATE YOUR LIVING ROOM WITH AN ORGANIC STYLE

Friday, 1 May 2015

by Towne Home Furnishings

In 2015, trending living rooms are mostly oriented towards a refined and natural style.

This year, neutral color palettes and organic materials are favored. Indeed, exposed wood, stone walls or a warm fireplace at the heart of the room are decorations that keep modern comfort.

Adopting an organic style living room doesn’t mean a less luxurious lifestyle. It’s just about embracing aesthetics that are unpretentious, elegant and closer to nature.

Your home is your haven; a place to rest, nest and simply relax. When you have a natural connection to your home, you feel immediately comfortable.

How to create an organic style?

With a more “organic” approach to home decor, you can establish a subtle yet notable flow between your interior space and the great outdoors. More than that, you can show off your naturally good taste and personal style in a way that looks effortless and feels right.

Two main ideas to incorporate organic elements at home:

1) You can mix some materials:

One of the main keys of organic style is mixing elements. Think rustic wood slab tabletops with earthy metal bases. You can add a piece of wood furniture, maybe something with a highly distressed finish incorporates rich, to give an organic character. Feel free to mix wood and metal with leather accent pieces, too. In addition, you can incorporate natural plants highlighted with a simple home accent urn.

2) You can pile on the textile:

Blend seagrass baskets in the corner, a wool poof, a braided rug that’s perfectly imperfect, textures and even in the most subtle tones.

Bright idea: The latest in area rugs and poofs offers a new spin on organic style by incorporating hair-on-hide leather, cowhide patchwork designs and more. The look is rich, the feel decadent and the mood: home on the range.

2015 TRENDS: NEUTRAL PALETTE

The New Neutral Palette

When decorating your living room, keep in mind one simple mantra—neutral works in any setting. Now if you’re afraid of expressing your personality with a neutral palette, think again.

Neutral Style Guide

The key to delivering a cohesive living room look is to stay within your palette, for all the elements in the room. For example, if your walls are a flat gray, consider incorporating some of these elements (all in tones of silver and gray):

·         Shimmery silk drapes over sheer

·         Home accent chandelier with metallic shades

·         Smooth leather upholstery on pouf, chair or bench

·         Mirrored coffee tables

·         Sofa linens in an assortment of textures

·         White floor and table lamps

·         Baseboards, crowns, doors and windows painted high gloss white

Beyond the Pale

The new neutrals come in a surprising assortment of hues. You can focus on one color (the palest of pinks, lavenders, taupes or creams) or you can pair it with another cool color to add interest and you’re on your way to a gorgeous living room makeover.

Your Dream Theme

When outfitting your retreat, let the wall color guide the look of the room. If you have stark white walls, consider going with a whitewashed, or distressed wood motif. Use seashells, rope, baskets and linen to bring the look together. Taupe walls would pair well with creams, sleek metals and glass. You get the idea. Just remember to keep everything light and pale, nothing too saturated. Your living room is not the place for bold colors. It should be your peaceful, quiet sanctuary.

White and cream are very trendy colors for living rooms this year. Indeed, matched with simple and sheer colors, you can mix with smooth textures. We suggest a simple and refined style which remains natural and peaceful. A sophisticated and a relaxed ambiance together make up a perfect living room.

Be careful, try to favor as far as possible neutral and sober elements that you may match with some shimmery and elegant hues giving a personal bracing shade.

This year, we emphasize on a simple, refined style and a stylized lighting that enhances your home. There is some advice for living room organization:

Personality: Simple, refined, elegant, modern, current, spacious, minimalist

Strongest colors: Black, white, blue, green

Matter: Leather, soft and smooth textures

Furniture and accessories: Coffee tables, vases, flowers, candelabrums, sofas, mirrors, contemporary chairs, sofa bed.

Decoration elements: tiles, stools, bay windows

Different styles: soft style, industrial style, design style

Bedroom: Fresh Looks

by Towne Home Furnishings

When the summer is there and the winter is just a memory, it’s time to make some changes! One of the first things to be changed certainly is the bedding. Heavy drapes are replaced with sheers, and light-weight coverlets are very welcomed. There’s simply no better way to start the new season of sun and grass than withnew bedding! Take a look at the fresh bedroom styles that we found for you.

Light and neutral

Spring is the right time to bring out linen sheets and offer yourself a fresh, restful and soothing bedroom atmosphere. The mixes of toasted almond and dust blue or tangerine are good choices for a smooth decor.

Bright and colorful

You can only feel happy when your gaze is set on a colorful pattern in shades of bright blue, green or orange. It’s the perfect way to make a transition between the last days of cold and the warmer season.

Warm and floral

Now that the sky is bright blue and the sun makes flowers come out off the ground, why not make flowers appear on your bed too? A warm colored print of big or small flowers would undoubtedly lift the mood.

Accessorize your home: Indoor spring dinner.

Spring is here!

Now that the weather allows it, you can start planning your next party.

Planning a spring party is always fun. It doesn’t need to be expensive. You just need to be creative and original when planning and finding ways to decorate your home.

Here are a few tricks that will help you find that look you have in mind for your room.

 1.  Start by asking yourself:

• Fresh flowers or artificial ones: You can give your indoor party a fresh feel by using glass accessories. This will provide a sense of being in contact with nature when using fresh flowers. If you want to keep that same feel when using artificial flowers or plants, you need to choose colorful ones.

Accessory group

If what you wish is to keep everything simple, you can always choose an accessory group according to your home decor and add something else to keep a fresh feel.

•  Accessories:  A good way to accessorize your indoor party is to coordinate your home décor elements. For example, if you wish to have a table with a glass centerpiece, you will need to coordinate the rest of your setup: Glass centerpiece, buffet decoration: glass bowls.

• If you are using mix-matched elements, choose the same style in different colors and use the same flowers to keep the same spirit. This brings a fresh look to your table and buffet.

Succulents To Liven Up Your Home!

by Towne Home Furnishings

You want some indoor plants, but don’t have much time to take care of them? The fake ones are not that beautiful and look fake? Don’t make any compromises, there is nothing like real greens to add a touch of life in a house; choose succulents. They virtually take care of themselves! With only occasional watering, you will have plants all season long.

Each variety might require slightly different care, but don’t worry, it's still easy! You may ask an employee at the store where you’re purchasing your plants for the required care of the plant.

Succulents are small in stature but they make a big difference in the atmosphere when they are in a group! Mix and match different varieties are good ways to make a real statement. You can plant succulents in separate pots and line them along a window sill, or plant several together in the same terrarium. You can’t go wrong either way.

Be creative! Turn a serving tray into a succulent garden; make terrariums using a glass box lantern.

You can use whatever you have at home. Here are few ideas of what can make beautiful miniature gardens!
