How to keep a clean and fashionable space
When we think of fashion we think of colour, texture and all of the beautiful spaces in between. Now, the new way of living is beyond the aesthetic - we have entered into an unprecedented culture of the ultra-clean.
Along with fabrics comes fashion. Christian LaCroix is a prime example of contemporary design. Groundbreaking on the catwalk, his creativity has manifested into some of the most profound interior design movements that the modern decor world has ever seen; or Tricia Guild’s reinterpretation of the Buckingham Palace fabrics, for any fan of colour and design, Designers Guild is gold!
Whether it be the trademark flowers and lush green prints of Designers Guild or the paradoxical designs of Christian LaCroix, over the decades, the textile industry has been woven together magnificently.
COVID-19 and contamination
It can go without saying that decor fans, whether professional or recreational, are always transforming their spaces to keep up with the latest trends. However, the interior design world has entered new territory this year; a space beyond glamour, where caution, contamination and uncertainty has tainted this otherwise creative balance.
Caution is the new contemporary
The COVID-19 pandemic has not left any person unaffected. In light of these challenges, see living, working and recreational spaces from a fresh perspective, from a practical and hygienic point of view.
Design with a purpose in mind
In the new world where remote working is commonplace, it is very difficult to separate work from home and this makes interior design more important than ever. Create structure in your environment and establish purpose; allocate spaces that are organised and functional.
Remember the less clutter - the less there is to clean! For peace of mind, create a space that is neutral, beautiful and hygienic.

Once again, to avoid a room appearing flat and one-dimensional, you need to get creative with your monochrome colours. A solution: bring in patterns!
You can stick to your monochrome colours (for example the greens in the patterns below) but choose patterned fabrics and wallpaper. A patterned green wallpaper, for example, is more compelling to look at than a plain green wallpaper.
