Spring/Summer 2019 Home Decor Trends We Love

Spring is the perfect time to redecorate your home and try something totally new. BentallGreenOak Residential Services has five spring decor trends that you'll love and that won't cost you a fortune.

 

Floral Patterns
If you're looking for ways to liven up your space, incorporating floral patterns might do the trick. There are many ways you can work them in and it doesn't have to be expensive. Floral bed sheets are an easy and affordable way to upgrade your bedroom and give it some character. A floral rug is a great way to make a statement in your living room. It works best if the rest of your furniture is not very busy. Floral pillows and throws are two other great options and are probably the least expensive way to change the look of your space. Check out Ikea or Bed Bath and Beyond for some good options.

Living Coral
Living coral is the hot, new colour of 2019. This soft, salmon-pink shade works well for all decor styles and can be easily incorporated into any room in your apartment. You can add living coral as a statement colour or accent colour and it will look great! A beautiful linen chair can be a great statement piece in your living room, or add a punch of colour to a neutral piece of furniture with living coral cushion covers. If you want to go for something a little more subtle, consider getting some coral-coloured scented candles or even coral-coloured towels for your bathroom. This way you'll add a touch of pink but won't make it the main focus.

Velvet
Incorporating velvet into your home will give your place a hint of glamour. To make a statement, invest in a velvet couch. If that's not in your budget, think about getting some velvet pillows or a side chair. You can also add a few velvet cushions, which is a nice and subtle way to add velvet to any space.

Mustard Yellow
This is a classic colour that never seems to go out of style. It's exciting, chic and works with everything because it's muted. Check out this beautiful area rug by Urban Outfitters, which is perfect for adding a pop of colour to your bedroom, den or living room. You can also add some flair to your dining room with mustard yellow chairs or yellow curtains.

Mix and Match Patterns
Mixing and matching patterns is not always easy or advisable. Not all patterns looks great together, so going in with a few tips and tricks can help you make the right choices when layering different patterns together. First, make sure to combine patterns in different sizes. If your rug has large patterns, choose pillows and floor cushions that have smaller patterns. This way, the smaller pieces will stand out. Second, pick a colour that's consistent throughout your decor. Even if you choose different patterns, one single colour will create cohesion in the room.

Happy decorating from BentallGreenOak Properties. We hope you enjoy trying out these spring decor trends in your apartment!
