SUMMER HOME DECOR TRENDS
Our homes are not our wardrobes that need to be regularly updated for the weather, but that doesn’t mean you can’t infuse some summery moments into your abode for the season—or all year long.
The main themes designers are vibing now? Let nature take its course indoors, flowers are your friends, color can be wonderful, but so are airy whites, and keep your materials and fabrics distinctly summer-adjacent. The idea here is that no one needs to turn their Midcentury ranch, Gothic Revival, or Tudor into a coastal oasis just because June is almost over. No overt nautical elements need apply.
But allowing the airy, breezy, nature-loving energy of summer life to infuse its way into your living areas is nothing short of delightful. And as designer Nina Garbiras suggests, there’s no better time to pick up some unique and beautiful finds than on your summer road trips and adventures abroad. Just in case that’s not in the cards, we did some shopping for you too.
WHITE LINENS AND THINGS
Sometimes it’s just about letting the actual sun shine in and through a room with light fabrics on windows, as throws, and even as upholstery. “In the summer months, I am always drawn to gauzy, light fabrics with tons of texture,” Augusta Hoffman says. “I love to slipcover club chairs and sofas with creamy linens and toss oversized, graceful bedcovers over the end of the bed.” The approach should feel as carefree as the fabrics themselves, according to the designer. “This should feel effortless and airy. There is something about a room full of relaxed, white textiles that always sings summer to me.”
A GARDEN OF EARTHLY DELIGHTS
Is there anything better than a beautifully appointed al fresco meal in a garden with just the right bold glasswear, linen napkins, twinkling lights and subtle candlelight? Bring that outdoor vibe inside. When the warm weather hits, Annie Downing of Annie Downing Interiors recommends tossing the clutter and stashing any heavy bedding or throw blankets. “Lean into color by layering vibrant cocktail glassware, candle sticks in fun colors, and patterned tablecloths.” It’s really about creating an outdoor garden vibe inside with strategic use of color, patterns, and of course, flora and fauna. “Keep fresh flowers in constant rotation for good measure,” Downing remarks.
