TREND #1: CLASHING PATTERNS
It’s time to be brave with clashing patterns. We’re talking stripes with spots, florals with checks or animal print with monochrome, layered together. It might sound daunting, but you’ll be surprised at how energetic and playful it makes any nursery. Here’s how to work the trend – apply Happy Dreams Liberty Wallpaper with the Multi Dots Rug – easy! Who said clashing patterns couldn’t be elegant?
TREND #2: PANTONE COLOURS OF THE YEAR 2021
This year, Pantone has released not one, but two Colours of the Year. And we couldn’t be happier with the winning shades of 2021. Get friendly with the chosen duo: Illuminating (a bright yellow) and Ultimate Gray (a pale grey). The best news? When mingled together they look ultra-modern and uplifting. Try the nursery trend for yourself with the London Grey Collection Changing Mat and Washable Yellow Mountains Rug.
TREND #3: JAPANESE x SCANDI DÉCOR = JAPANDI
