03. MIX MATERIALS
Mix in wood, woven textures and ceramics to make the most of your space and bring the warmth of the Summer inside your living room. Add some patterns, whether it be in vases, rugs or pillows, for that perfect cozy look.
04. LEAN BACK
Achieve that perfect laid-back look with artworks that you don’t necessarily need to hang, but rather lean against your colorful walls for a bigger contrast and a lot of personality. We recommend some abstract artworks for a bigger impact. Overlap different sizes to create variation in heights around the room.
