Interior decorating: Soft focus

An elegant palette brings calm to an otherwise busy space

A living room should always feel like a comfortable, cosy area in your home. This space (left) achieves just that with casual, affordable pieces, whilst still maintaining an undeniable sense of style.

It’s a tremendously busy room, but thanks to the pale palette, the contents don’t overwhelm the space, despite it being crammed to the brim.

When I was out shopping for this lovely lounge, I could have filled it 10 times over, as the theme allows such a breadth of options. The eclectic look comprises functional furniture, as well as antiques and a hint of vintage.

But it’s the personal belongings that make a home so cosy – particularly to the owner. Myidea of perfection is sticking to these soft, earthy tones and throwing in a couple of hints of colour to bring it all to life.
