2018 INTERIOR TREND : JEWEL TONES

With the recent trend of adding precious metals like gold, copper and rose gold as accents for the interior, it is no surprise that luscious shades of precious stones are soon to be added into the mix this coming year!

On its way to take 2018 by storm, jewel tones furniture and decor is the way to up your interior decorating game! Often seen in moody interiors, the jewel tone palette is finding its way into brighter interiors as a hero piece in the space or for playful colour injection. 

As a statement piece, an elegant chesterfield sofa is the most bang for the buck if you were to ask. The tufted cushion details will never go out of style. Pick a deep Sapphire Blue, Amethyst Purple or even Emerald Green upholstery to go with it. They make a classic combination that will withstand the test of time. Some things just never go out of style.  

If the deeper jewel tones are not up your alley, pastel shades of Poudretteit & Aquamarine are perfect for a fresher take on the upcoming trend. 

For a piece that exhibits charm in the day and amplifies luxury in the evening's ambient glow from lamps, pick a velvet, silk or viscose upholstery. These fabrics catch light, diffuse a lovely shine and give off a look of elegance.

If you are still unsure about going big with the trend, refreshing your space with throw cushions of the jewel colours is definitely a great way to start!

A stylish box to hold your knickknacks in is surely the nifty to put clutter out of sight! It can be used for keys at the entry way, for lighter, matches or even coasters at the dining credenza!

LIGHTING YOUR INTERIOR WITH AMBIENCE

Updated on 28 December 2020

We are featured by "Best in Singapore" as having the 6 Best Bedside Lamps in Singapore recently.

If you think that creating a cosy home is simply collating furniture and home accessories, think again! It is often the finishing touch that changes how the space will feel ultimately.

Up on the blog today, we shine our spotlight on one important key factor for achieving cosy ambience- lighting. Read on to get inspiration for styling ambient spaces, one lamp at a time. 

 

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION
Ever been to a cosy lounge and wonder what made it so comfortable? Perhaps it's clever use of lighting up areas with lamps instead of even lighting from the ceiling throughout.  

Place lamps at areas that allow you to receive a glow for reading or to have a drink. Consider one on a side table by your sofa, one on your TV console, credenza or entry console.

 

 

SIZE MATTERS

If you have a tall side table, then it goes without saying that a shorter lamp will look proportionate on it and vice versa. Another rule of thumb here is to pick a lamp where the bottom of the shade is at your eye level when you are seated or resting. Make sure that you are not able to see the glaring naked bulb in either position. This works whether you are shopping for a table lamp that fits your reading nook, a bed side lamp, or even one that goes next to the sofa in the living room.


 
 

 

COLOUR TEMPERATURE 

For cosier ambience, try using warm white light. They make the perfect choice for a soft, orangey glow to unwind and relax in. 
 
Cool white lighting is best for emphasizing details or to call for productivity at work. They are great for indirect lighting at display shelves or areas where you need proper lighting for reading like at the work desk.  
 
Not forgetting, dimmers are bonuses to help you adjust the light intensity to get the most ideal mood for any occasion! 

 

 

 

STYLE FACTOR 
Like everything else, the design of the lamps ought to match the rest of your interior. After all, styling a space is to seamlessly blend comfort and style. 

With our NEW collection of lamps, having every piece of ambient lighting in your interior looking stylish is pretty much effortless. See them here!
