Picking up the blue accents of the ottoman and the rugs, this dark blue, textured wall is the perfect backdrop for this Eastern-inspired living space. The timber floorboards and wicker basket serve to brighten up an otherwise rich colour scheme. Photography - Natalie Hunfalvay Styling - Adam Powell

The traditional colour palette of this Eastern-inspired interior is kept fresh by the addition of potted plants, and the silver hanging lanterns beautifully contrast the otherwise earthy colour palette. Photography - Denise Braki Styling - Jono Fleming

There’s no need to overhaul your entire space. As you can see from this outdoor scene the inclusion of just two colourful, Mexican pieces elevates the whole space, without it ending up in kitsch territory. Photography - Denise Braki Styling - Emmaly Stewart

Don’t be afraid to think outside the box – rugs aren’t just for floors! This colourful Mexican rug makes a beautiful wall hanging, with the pompom embellishments adding a playful element to an otherwise “mature” room.

This modern, bright blue chair shakes up the otherwise earthy feel of this Moroccan inspired interior. Likewise, the framed map artwork brings a contemporary feel to the space, creating the perfect balance of the exotic and the urban.

The rustic chairs and light fixture are transported to the “now” with the help of a colour-blocked feature wall (with a matching table leg!) and a colourful but understated Mexican rug.

This Mexi-themed space is bright and youthful, with each piece vying for attention. The orange chair is a unique conversation piece, while the rug’s fish pattern adds a playful touch, and the sand-coloured feature wall and cactus bring the outside in.
