This trend is all about contrast; soft greyed-off pastels against powerful brights, delicate floral patterns against crisp lines, and natural wood against raw metal. Storage is always a win or lose element to a room so choose pieces that will add to the eclectic feel. The natural wicker of this quirky little piece looks great against the drama of bold gloss.
With traditional techniques being key to this look, it's a great excuse to go textile crazy - with beautiful quilting, embriodery and crochet.
The woodland motifs of this trend have been filtering through for a while now with many high-end and high street designers featuring owls, frogs, squirrels and other furry friends in their work. These touches evoke the feeling of fun and warmth found in fairytales.
