  • Mix Up the Texture 🧶
    Allowing different textures to live cohesively in one space will instantly bring a depth to your rooms that creates a cosy, welcoming space.

  • Lighting is EVERYTHING 💡
    You’ve heard me say it before and you’ll hear me say it again:

    You👏🏼Can👏🏼Never👏🏼Have👏🏼Too👏🏼Many👏🏼Lamps👏🏼

    Play around with different bulb wattage, filaments and colours. And for the love of God avoid white light unless your idea of ‘cosy and relaxing’ is Patrick Bateman’s apartment. 

  • Fill the Space 🪴
    Consider using vases, a stack of magazines, empty wine bottles as candlesticks or pottery to make your space feel lived in and warm.

  • Introduce Colour 🎨
    If your space is feeling a little 2-dimensional it may be that your palette isn’t varied enough. You don’t need to go full-out-maximalist here, just add splashes of colour with cushions, artwork and plants to create a homely environment you’ll never want to leave. 

  • Don’t Forget Your Tribe 🐶
    Framed photos of your nearest and dearest are the quickest way to inject some fuzzy-feels into your home. Vary the sizes, styles and colours of the frames for bonus points.
