New Age

It’s time to find your inner hippie with a fabulous NEW AGE interior design. This trend is perfect for those who wish to create a relaxed and tranquil space with a hint of pattern and colour. This look can be used across modern and traditional home interiors and is a perfect way to find some calm in the hustle and bustle of day-to-day life. With many new age accessories available across the High Street this season it will be easy to recreate this stylish and cool interior look.

There are two distinct styles that you can go for when opting to create a new age look in your home interior. The first look consists of natural and earthy colour tones that bring a sense of the outdoors indoors. Opt for rich cream and beige colour tones and accentuate with sumptuous burnt orange, terracotta, red and fern green to create an eye-catching colour scheme that is relaxed and elegant. For a more bright and cheerful interior design then opt for more festival inspired colour schemes featuring bold and bright colours or monochrome colour palettes that will emphasise the bold patterns that we associate with new age fabrics and materials. Instead of a wallpaper opt for a rug or tapestry that can be hung from the wall; featuring classic tribal and bohemian patterns and prints that will create a focal point within your home interior.

Select vintage, tribal or bohemian patterned fabrics across your soft furnishings and accessories to create areas of eye-catching print and pattern within your chosen room. A plain set of linen curtains can be accentuated with beaded or fringed tiebacks and natural oak curtain poles to create a simple yet stylish feel within your living room, dining room or bedroom. Add some life to a vintage sofa with some tribal and bohemian patterned cushions and throws that can be displayed in natural or bold colour schemes featuring embroidery, beading, tassels and fringing to create texture and visual style within your chosen room. Opt for bedding featuring Indian or mandala style patterns in bright and vibrant colour schemes that will add a burst of colour to your bedroom interior.

Mixing and matching your furniture is the perfect look for a new age interior design. A variety of furniture in a range of styles and finishes come together to create character and a sense of travel within your chosen room. Partner furniture styles from around the world such as Moroccan tables or Mediterranean sideboards with vintage furniture items like lamp shades and pouffes to create a hodge podge of characters within your chosen room. Painted furniture also makes a great addition to a new age interior giving you a chance to get creative and hand paint your wardrobe doors or your drawer fronts in classic bohemian or Indian style patterns. Select a variety of accessories such as lanterns, rugs, candles, crystals or floral pattern vases that can be mismatched around the room creating areas of colour, pattern and visual style.
