New Year, New Space: Refresh Your Home This January
As we enter a new year, many of us are inspired to embrace change. Whether it’s starting new habits, decluttering, or refreshing our spaces, January offers the perfect opportunity to reset. Your home is no exception. A refreshed interior can reinvigorate your daily routine, spark creativity, and enhance your overall well-being. At Chapter Seven Design, we’re here to help you create a space that feels renewed and uniquely yours.
Patterns and Textures: Layering for Depth and Personality
One of the defining trends this year will be using patterns and textures to add depth and personality to your interiors. Think about using tactile materials like bouclé, velvet, and natural wool paired with geometric, organic patterns. These elements will create visual interest and invite a sense of cosiness—perfect for winter. For a timeless touch, consider using subtle layering with neutral tones and adding some colour inspired by nature and the outside, such as a shade of green, like moss.
Declutter and Organise
A clutter-free space is the foundation of a rejuvenating environment. Start by identifying areas that need attention, whether it’s your kitchen worktops, wardrobes, or bookshelves. Use smart storage solutions like baskets, built-in or multi-functional furniture to maximise space and maintain a clean, polished look. Don’t forget to donate items you no longer need!
Embrace Colour
Nothing transforms a room faster than a new colour palette. For 2025, earthy tones and calming shades like sage green, terracotta, and soft neutrals are trending. Consider incorporating colourful decor like cushions, rugs, or artwork for a subtle yet impactful change.
Reimagine Furniture Layouts
Sometimes, the simplest tweaks make the biggest difference. Rearrange your furniture to improve flow and functionality. Move your sofa to face a window or reposition your dining table for better lighting.
Natural Finishes: The Beauty of Imperfection
Embrace the imperfect beauty of any natural finishes. Materials such as reclaimed wood, ceramics, and stone will add character to your interiors. Their organic textures and irregularities make each piece unique, contributing to a home that feels personal.
By incorporating these trends, you could create beautiful, functional, sustainable spaces that will be very much connected to nature.
