Embrace warm shades and earthy tones through soft furnishings and textured rugs. Let these rooms inspire you …
The Rug Company’s Crescendo collection of rugs is made using materials like nettle, linen, wool and silk, and hand-knotted by artisans in Nepal; from a selection at www.maoliosa.com.
Earthy neutrals continue to dominate the interiors landscape. Clay tones, rusts, Mouse’s Back browns and soothing taupes are coming through, bringing natural warmth and depth. These cocooning paint colours bring an end to years of cold, stark-feeling interiors. With Pantone’s 2025 Colour of the Year Mocha Mousse leading the charge, earthy tones offer a timeless, comforting foundation for any interior.
