Staple tones such as black, tan, denim and white don't need to be boring, especially when it comes to fashion and interiors. Inspired by key designs from homegrown fashion houses, we explore shapes and colours of lust-worthy interior pieces. 

Sophisticated Black

When it comes to timeless fashion, nothing beats a strong black silhouette, and the same goes for interiors. Rounded shoulders, cinched waists and ruched fabrics are recreated in ageless yet trend-driven vases. Decor formed from organic materials such as clay and ceramic create textured surfaces which can be especially enjoyed for years to come, just like that LBD in your wardrobe.

 

Tailored Timber

Stylish but comfortable knits in natural fibres encourage nesting at home. Rib trims and seam details create a linear look with a soft drape and remind us of curved timber furniture. Our favourite feature of the Anika range's console table and coffee table is the fluted mango wood panelling - a perfect piece for everyday use at the forefront of design.

    

Chic Chalk

Not quite white but definitely not cream, chalk is a lovely neutral compromise. Textured matte fabrics like boucle in chalk colourways truly sing when combined with elegant shapes and exaggerated necklines. Inspiring simple but statement armchairs in this tone and texture elevate modern design with its enduring potential. 

Classic Denim

Much like a sofa is the centrepiece of any living room, denim clothing is the backbone of any good wardrobe. Oversized and relaxed-fit denim pieces show off durable heavyweight cotton for everyday wear, echoing the plush comfort of the Cumulus denim slipcover sofa with flange border detailing. Sturdy but comfortable upholstery withstands the test of time and adds a casual element to living room bliss.

Clean geometric clothing pieces add a refined sculptural quality to all-white outfits, creating an understated but sharp look. Just as layering whites in fashion adds a sense of playfulness to an otherwise monochromatic ensemble, mixing sculptured decor such as vases and ornaments adds a cohesive but spirited energy to your interiors.
