An unique furniture journal

In the field of interior design, trends often change quickly and surprise us with various innovations. However, some design elements have been popular for years. One such hot trend that has recently been gaining more and more attention is rattan.

Rattan, a natural material derived from palm trees, has been used for centuries in various fields, including furniture and decorative elements. Its unique charm, natural texture and versatility make rattan an increasingly popular choice for both traditional and modern style interiors.

Making a decision on what furniture you require and that is suitable for a small living room can be quite daunting. It often imposes many limitations, but with some imagination and creativity, these can be resolved. Practicality is the key factor in these decisions, as we need to make sure we get the maximum amount of functionality within the space. So which seating is best - a sofa, a corner sofa, a modular arrangement or armchairs and pouffes? Where do you start with furnishing a smaller living room? We’ll start with the basics.

Luxe style is all about glamour and opulence. It makes an interior feel sumptuous, with shiny metallic surfaces, sumptuous velvets and silks, reflective glass and mirrors. It is a refined, but welcoming space with stylish but comfortable sofas, often with boutique hotel vibes. Most of all, it is easy to achieve in whatever space you have available but is particularly popular in living rooms and bedrooms. At SLF24 we have so many upholstered furniture options to choose from, to make your home as luxurious as you want it to be.

Do you have a ‘more is more’ kind of approach, or do you prefer a subtle and maybe more understated look. Whatever your preference, Christmas is a time when you are able to enhance your home with joy and cosiness. The festive season is a time for celebrating with family and friends, and what better way to welcome your guests then with a beautifully decorated interior.

Nostalgia is a term often overused in conjunction with Christmas, but decorations can offer a wonderful sentimental feel. Special decorations are often passed down through the generations, and happy memories can be triggered by thoughts of loved ones past and present. Homemade decorations are another feature that evoke special times, especially when they have been lovingly made by your children or grandchildren. If you are particularly creative, it is a great reason to showcase your talents, and make items that are unique and bespoke just for your home.

The smaller the space, the more challenging it can be to successfully arrange the layout. With a few clever interior design tips and tricks, we can make sure the space works well for you and the whole household. Whilst access for furniture is one of the main considerations, it is possible to create an original, functional, bright, and airy room. Let’s look at where we can get further inspiration.

Sofas, armchairs, and complete suites in pale colours. Whilst they look great, some customers are afraid of committing to them in their own interior because of the risk of spills and marks. We want to focus on those that need a little more persuasion when it comes to this particular colour palette and reassure the doubters that it doesn’t need to be such a scary choice. In the minds of many people, questions begin to arise as to the practicality and durability of such light-coloured furniture. Who would buy a white or cream corner sofa when they have children? Pale coloured armchairs in a home with a dog or cat? Can it work? It can!
