TREND 3: SENTIENCE
Representing a retreat from our always-on, technology-driven landscape, this look incorporates warmth and texture through tactile materials and a subtle, neutral palette. “It evokes a calming, peaceful mood designed to transform your home into a nurturing cocoon,” says stylist Stephanie Powell. “The palette is earthy to help ground us in everyday living.” Beige, dusty pinks and earth tones deliver the goods. “We look at beige tones as a safe, neutral base,” says Shaynna Blaze, brand ambassador for Taubmans, “but when you add light oak timbers, nature’s greenery and raw fibres, it gives a sense of going back to our roots and of simplicity. Steer away from beiges with a buttery-yellow undertone so they don’t feel old-fashioned. Dusty pinks are the ‘in’ friend right now. They take us to a feminine place but are far from whimsical.” Colours: Taubmans Fossil Find, Deep Desire, Elephant Pink.
“To keep the look from falling into ‘fussy’, keep the accents strong with leather and brass” ~ Shaynna Blaze, Taubmans brand ambassador
