Interior design trends have been along for centuries. But, if you can't get your head round your Japandi or Mid-Century, we're here to help with our free guide to the latest interior design trends as picked by our team of experts.
It's true, some 'trends' come and go faster than you can say "In a world full of trends, I want to remain a classic'. Quote by Iman, model and actress, and muse of luxury fashion houses Versace, Donna Karan and Yves Saint Laurent, amongst others.
While it's crucial to follow your heart, choosing timeless pieces you feel passionate about rather than chasing trends, when first designing a home and selecting pieces to decorate, it's useful to see what the possibilities are and how you can craft the house of your dreams designed for your lifestyle.
