Posted by LF Shop on May 12th, 2022

Summer calls for decor updates to your home! Take this time to introduce some cheery and colourful additions to your space. While there are multiple decorating styles for homeswith different personalities, each can be customised to add a summary element that fits the character of your home and fits right in like a missing piece of puzzle.

So, if you have been looking for luxe home decor ideas for this season, make sure to bookmark the following easy, but innovative ideas:

Swap the bedding: Replace your heavier beddingwith your wispy linens for the summer. This will add lightness to your room. Stick to whites and neutrals if you want to keep it bright. You can also do the same with your curtains to let in all the cool breeze.

Add some natural colours: Summer is as much about beautiful whites as they are about cheerful colours. And the easiest, fastest way to do that is by adding some fruits in a bowl. You can keep them on your kitchen countertop as well as the living room. A bowl of oranges, for example, will lighten the place up right away.

Add pops of colour and pattern: Even if you love all-whites and neutral colours, you can always add in a pop of colour with a cushion, chairs, rug, or a piece of art. Opt for tangerine, yellow, and teal which are vibrant but not overwhelmingly so. You can also experiment with patterns and mix-match them for a visually striking look that shows off the interior designing skills in you. This is one of the best ways to give your home decor a luxe but fun update.

Consider adding a statement piece: Surprise yourself and your guests by adding an unexpected surprise in your living room, like an inspiring piece of art, a customised rug, or an antique piece of furniture that are now available in luxury home decor brands across the globe. Find something which exudes character and takes up its rightful space in your home.

Prep the patio/backyard: After sundown, spend as much time outdoors as you can. If you were planning a casual get-together, there’s nothing more appealing than a fun game party on the patio or a movie party. Bring out some colourful cushions, outdoor rugs, and some outdoor furniture for the perfect set up.

Change the furniture: If you are bored of the furniture in your living space, home office, or study, why not add some earthy, organic, and neutral elements to it? Distressed wooden furniture, wicker armchairs, rattan baskets and seagrass accessories add a beautiful, chilled-out vibe and instantly elevate your space. However, if you are not up to buying new furniture, why not get your hands dirty and give the old ones a new lease of life with some polish and colour?

Install an outdoor shower: If you have the space and the budget, nothing spells luxury more than an outdoor shower. There’s no better way to wash off the day than under the open sky, and it’s something the whole family can enjoy. Make sure you plan this with an engineer to ensure efficient planning.

Have a napping nook: Sure you can always crash in your bed, but if you don’t get a napping nook in summers, when will you? While you can take the extravagant route of putting up a daybed with billowy white curtains under a shed in your backyard, a hammock or a lounge chair will also be just fine for those power, or longer, naps. Look through catalogues of some luxury home decor brands for ideas!

Introduce summery scents: Last but never the least: fragrance. We know how transformative scent can be to a space, so why not take the time to pick out a fragrance that you associate with summer and the energy you want in your home to truly set the tone for the season? From rustic wooden scents to ones with citrusy notes, choose whichever helps you transform your home into your own summer paradise.
