Winter Trends
As the year comes to a close, winter interiors embrace deep, warm hues, setting the tone for cosy nights and festive gatherings.
Whether you're refreshing the home or looking to add final finishing touches, it's time to dust the cobwebs away and welcome this season's latest trends to see you into the new year.
Midnight Blue
This Winter, the blues are making an early and delightful appearance, although on a much happier note. Instead of muted hues, imagine deep, rich blue tones reminiscent of the night sky.
Perfectly suited to both traditional and modern interiors, midnight blue takes centre stage as a statement colour for festive décor or beautifully transforms a winter living room when used on the walls, soft furnishings and flooring.
Pair with pops of emerald green or natural foliage to complement this elegant shade, welcoming warmth and texture, to create a space that feels both inviting and luxurious.
Aditi Sharma Maheshwari, Design Editor at Livingetc explains,
"Sure, it's a bold choice but it can feel classic, new, and fresh if you use it creatively — via paints, furnishings, or decorations. The tone is extremely versatile and works in almost every style of decor. Use it on the walls when you want to go dark but not quite black. Or use it to contrast against white trim to highlight architectural details."
Dining In Style
As festive celebrations draw near, the dining room and kitchen will become the heart of your home for hosting and entertaining.
Creating a thoughtful set-up for social gatherings or elaborate dinners will not only make hosting easier, but also leave a lasting impression on your guests.
Elevate your entertaining by adding a standout statement piece to your décor. A striking centrepiece for your tablescape or a bespoke rug under the dining table can help to zone the space, adding both style and a sense of occasion.

Unexpected Flooring
This joyful season, let your flooring take the spotlight.
When it comes to adding a pop of colour to your home, paint and wallpaper are not the only options. Wool carpets and rugs offer a creative way to add personality to your interiors while keeping those winter blues at bay.
Introducing vibrant hues like blues, deep greens, and dusky pinks can seamlessly tie together the accents and furniture pieces in your living space. Not only do these colours add depth, but they also bring a layer of warmth and comfort underfoot, perfect for cosying up during the colder months.
British Heritage
“Traditional British interior design is characterised by elegance, comfort and understated luxury”
says Callender Howorth, a leading Interior and Architectural Design Agency. As the days grow colder, many look to make their home a place of warmth and relaxation and embracing the elements of classic British design is a great way to do so.
Whether you’re updating a quaint countryside cottage or designing a modern townhouse, incorporating traditional British style into your home can infuse your space with character and cosiness.
Consider ornate patterns like delicate florals, ginghams or stripes to add depth and a touch of nostalgia.
Further enhance your living spaces with considered details such as trims on rugs, patterned upholstery or refined striped carpets, that pair beautifully with rich, dark pieces of furniture to create a timeless and classic yet comfortable interior.
Designs For Life
With celebrations and hosting filling up our calendars this winter, consider curating collections of sustainable, thoughtfully made pieces when choosing new styles or finishing touches for your home.
Embrace the trends you love and priortise pieces crafted from natural materials like wood, linen or recycled materials to ensure they last a lifetime and transcend into micro trends.
Our recycled Anywhere Ca-rPET fibre offers a blend of style and sustainability. With fibres made from 100% recycled consumer plastics, the innovative range allows you to introduce new trends while being mindful of your environmental impact.
Ideal for home updates or bespoke designs, it’s the perfect choice for those who want to make a lasting, eco-friendly addition to their interiors.
Cosy Minimalism
A new take on minimalist interiors is emerging this season, moving away from stark blank canvases and instead welcoming the warmth of richer neutrals. For those hesitant about bold patterns or vibrant colours, this is an interior ‘trend’ to definitely explore.
To achieve this cosy minimalist aesthetic, focus on warm, rich hues that bring a toasty and organic feel.
Earthy, natural materials like golden jutes, and warm-toned woods infuse living rooms, kitchens and bedrooms with a cocooning atmosphere. Extending these tones throughout soft furnishings such as textured rugs, layered bedding and linen cushions, helps to create a cohesive design that feels curated yet effortless.
More than a fleeting trend, it’s a chance to design your home to reflect your desired lifestyle.
