Shimmering like sunsets, these flaxen hues give interiors a touch of pure luxe

MIDAS TOUCH

Calm, sophistica­ted yet still on the decadent side, lighter shades of gold may be the more liveable option for most homes. The pale golden tones of this beauty suit the inviting elegance of its design. Supplì armchair, from £2,090, Luca Nichetto for Arflex

OFF TO BED

Designer Bethan Gray says ‘nature, craft and culture’ were the focus of her new Dhow collection. She has translated the distinctiv­e patterning and colour palette of her hugely successful Nizwa and Dhow cabinetry range into customisab­le headboards, tallboy chests and bedside cabinets. Dhow Monochrome bed, £20,520; bedside cabinets, £6,240 each, all Bethan Gray

BACK TO THE FUTURE

What inspired this new retro looking print? Kirkby Design, who teamed up with global fashion house Eley Kishimoto for a collection of wallcoveri­ngs, says this print is inspired by ‘the effect of multiple folded paper aeroplanes in flight, created by an arrangemen­t of basic geometric shapes and creating an overall complex looking design’. And it is rather mesmerisin­g, isn’t it? It’s also available in fabric form. Origami Rockets wallcoveri­ng in Bohemia, £100 a roll, Kirkby Design x Eley Kishimoto

TURNING TIDE

The ombré-style effect on the Marea dresser looks akin to liquid gold. The inner structure is actually made of titanium oak, while the skin is a patinated metal. House of Dome describes this piece thus: ‘Like the tide leaves its mark, wave after wave, even here the hand of the craftsman has left its sign, oxidation after oxidation, creating a painterly effect that resembles water’s erosion of the material’. The Marea is part of a four-piece collection that also includes a sideboard, a chest of drawers and a cabinet. Marea six-drawer dresser, price on request, Zanellato/bortotto for House of Dome
