Trend Focus: Botanics, Bugs & Butterflies
By Amy Kilvington
The botanical trend is one of the most exciting of the season, with its fascinating foliage, feathered friends and colourful creepy crawlies. Fresh and fashionable, the botanical trend is sure to bring a bright and energetic character to your interior design scheme.
As we begin to spend more time outdoors, we can see the botanical trend working its way into our homes. These delightful designs bring flair and excitement into our homes, perfect for the warmer weather.
The botanical trend reminds us of the beauty and diversity of nature, from the bugs and birds in our own back gardens, to the unique species that dwell in forests and deserts across the globe. With its glorious palette of colours and Charles Darwin-esque illustrations, it is truly inspiring and uplifting.
The look exudes a gentle, natural feeling without being overtly feminine. It is also incredibly versatile; botanics, bugs, birds and butterflies are all timeless motifs, so you needn’t worry about your interior style dating. The trend works tremendously well within country design schemes, along with contemporary interiors that need a little uplift.
For a more subtle nod towards the look, you could try series of frames featuring your favourite botanical designs, or even pressed leaves and petals. Statement wallpapers are a bold choice, while botanical bedding and cushions can be a more flexible option. Or dress your windows with a patterned Roman blind or pair of curtains, framing the view outside with some botanical beauty. With the botanical trend, you can go as big or small as you desire, choosing the blooms, bugs, butterflies and birds that best appeal to you.
