Summer looks: The ultimate guide

Your curated guide to effortless style, warm-weather living, and the pieces that define summer at home.

A fresh season calls for spaces that feel open, light, and inspired. This summer, it’s all about creating a home that blends relaxed living with timeless and design—where comfort meets effortless style. From coastal-inspired pieces to sculptural furniture and sun-washed textures, discover how to bring the ultimate summer vibe into every room.

Lighten Your Palette

Swap out moody hues for fresh whites, sandy neutrals, and coastal-inspired tones. A lighter palette instantly reflects natural light, making your rooms feel bigger, brighter, and more relaxed. Think soft cream throws on the sofa, pale timber finishes, and crisp bedding that sets the tone for summer living.

Bring the outdoors in

Extend your florals and garden into your home. Greenery has the power to instantly freshen up your interiors. A simple palm in a corner, or a fresh vase of flowers on the table, can transform the energy of a room and give it that breezy, holiday feel.

Switch up your styling!

Rotate in decorative pieces that capture the spirit of summer. Swap heavier layers for lightweight throws, update your artwork with coastal or sun-drenched tones, and experiment with accessories in ocean blues, terracotta, or washed-out yellow. These styling moments add vibrancy without needing to redesign the whole room.

Create spaces for entertaining

Summer is a season of connection — a time when homes open their doors to family and friends. From long lunches that spill into the evening to casual catch-ups over coffee, your interiors should support these moments. Think open dining spaces, versatile seating, and layered styling that makes every guest feel welcome.
