Wild and Woolly

This winter, why not create a WILD and WOOLLY interior design that brings together cosy fabrics and colour schemes and nature inspired accessories and decor to create a snug and stylish finish in any room of the home. This look is perfect for the colder months but also brings a sense of the outdoors indoors to create a fresh and airy interior design.

There are a wide variety of colour schemes to choose from when creating the stylish interior look. For a traditional wild outdoor feel then opt for woodland inspired colour palettes featuring soft cream, forest green, brown and russet tones that will create a fresh yet homely feel in your chosen room. For a more arctic inspired design then partner crisp white with cool grey, blue and mint that are sure to create a bright glacial feel in your chosen room. A ranch inspired interior look can be created by pairing rich chocolate brown, beige, mustard and orange to create a warm and cosy feel that looks great in more rustic home interiors. You can also include outdoor inspired wallpapers featuring leaves, trees and foliage or add a modern stag head, fox or hare print wallpaper that will look great on a large feature wall, chimney breast or alcove space.

As the trend suggests, opt for woollen and cosy fabrics and furnishings that will create an area of texture, pattern and colour within your home. Combine natural materials such as linen, cotton and wool across your curtains, cushions, bedding and rugs to create a warm and inviting interior feel. Chunky knitted cushions and throws will look fabulous scattered across a bed or draped on a sofa or armchair and can be displayed in crisp white and grey colour schemes for a Nordic inspired look or warm orange, red and mustard for a more traditional highland interior design. These woolly accessories can be teamed with faux fur and tartan cushions, throws, bedding and rugs for added variation in pattern and texture or even include some photographic animal or forest print cushions for a more modern interior feel.

Rustic furniture works particularly well with this look as it brings together the warmth of the outdoors with the cosiness of the soft furnishings. Chunky or weathered oak furniture will look particularly great within this interior design trend and can be paired with warm orange, red and chocolate colour schemes to create a cosy country inspired design. For a more fresh and open interior feel then pair an arctic colour scheme with white or grey painted furniture items that will create a cosy feel that maintains a crisp and bright ambiance.  Add some antler light fittings and candleholders, woodland animal ornaments and some chunky oak mirrors and photo frames that will tie together this look and add a stylish finishing touch to any room of the home.
