WHAT’S BEHIND THE TREND?

The global look allows us to be adventurous with interiors and embrace small-scale, geometric, folk and tribal patterns that all work together to create a stylish setting with a bohemian edge. Incorporating simple embellishments such as tassels and metallic accents turns it into the perfect laid-back look for alfresco summer living.

PERSONAL FAVOURITE

What I love about this look is that it’s so versatile. The earthy palette of warm reds and terracottas can be brought to life with flashes of bright colour and fresh white – ideal for creating a summer party feel.

TOP TIPS

Invest in solar-powered lanterns and festoon lights to bring a beautiful warm glow to your outdoor space.

Go for relaxed, informal dining and make your table look amazing with patterned melamine pieces, and decorate with pretty flowers and leafy foliage.

Create a canopy using a large piece of patterned fabric to transform a space for entertaining and add copper pieces for an injection of glamour.
