Summer Splendour
Let your creativity and style blossom at home this summer
This summer, we enthusiastically step out into the world with the freedom and confidence to explore the outdoors and reconnect with friends and family; therefore, every moment of the summer deserves to be celebrated with refreshed vigour. “With everything growing, exploring, and blooming, we join our community in relishing the first summer we’ve had in two years where we can emerge from our cocoons to join everyone again,” says Dina Tantoco, marketing and communications head of Rustan’s Department Store.
Embrace life in full bloom and have your homes reflect your zesty energy and creativity with these design tips for the season:
BRING THE OUTDOORS IN
After spending most of the past years cooped up indoors, enliven the mood of your interior space with bright florals, green hues and pops of colour. Entertain guests at home with a nature-inspired tablescape. With woven textures as the cornerstone, top off your table with colour-glazed tableware from Royal Doulton, an embossed, light-reflecting cutlery set from Robert Welch, and vivid glassware to tie in the look for relaxed social gatherings.
ADD THE FLAIR OF FINE PORCELAIN
Marrying Eastern and Western influences in intricate detail and craftsmanship, the allure of porcelain plating lies in its history and timeless glamour. Host dinner parties with conversation pieces for the ages when you adorn your table with the finest Bone China, akin to works of art from Seletti’s Hybrid and Kintsugi plate collections. Complementing the vibrant trimmings and décor, the understated elegance of silverplated flatware from Christofle’s Rubans collection evokes the romantic charm of 18th century Europe as it takes on the decorative characteristic of the Louis XVI style, detailed through silk-like silver ribbons wrapping gracefully around the cutlery.
STAY COOL AND COMFORTABLE
What if your bedding felt as airy and light as your favourite chambray shirt? With neutral hues and soft fabrics that get better with every wash, the Graydon Collection from Lauren by Ralph Lauren brings a calm, comforting feel to your bedroom as the summer heat trickles in. Pair the subtly striped pieces with the bolder stripes and watercolour florals of cotton indigo throw pillows from the Maggie collection, which features decorative stitchwork for a playful contrast.
