As the days grow shorter and the chill of winter settles in, our homes become more than just a place to retreat—they’re sanctuaries of warmth and comfort.

A few small updates can make a big impression

Here’s how you can elevate your interiors this season, with inspiration from top brands like Soho Home, Barker and Stonehouse, Loaf, Neptune, and Cox & Cox.



Layer Up with Throws and Cushions

Soft layers are essential for warmth, both physically and aesthetically. Pile up cushions and throws in seasonal hues like deep plum, burnt orange, or earthy greens for an instant update.

A green throw
Soho Home’s Maria Alpaca Throw in olive green is a versatile choice, perfect for draping over a sofa or layering on a bed. Its subtle fringe detailing adds a touch of elegance.
Colourful cushions on a sofa
Loaf’s Nuzzler merino wool cushions in sumptuous merino wool bring a playful pop of colour, while their plump fillings ensure the ultimate snug factor.


Opt for Luxurious Rugs

A well-placed rug can anchor a room and introduce a cosy underfoot feel. This winter, choose natural textures like wool or jute to complement your space.

For something a little more bohemian, Cox & Cox’s Striped Holm Rug combines rich texture with a contemporary pattern, adding visual interest.


Enhance Ambience with Curtains and Blinds

Heavy curtains are not only practical for keeping out the draughts but also create a cocooning effect that makes a room feel wonderfully enclosed.

For a modern twist, the Opulence Deep Teal Curtains from Graham and Brown add a luxurious sheen and make an excellent statement in a study, living room or bedroom.
Floral patterned curtains
Artemis print curtains from House of Hackney are a rich and sumptuous choice for your curtains. Inspired by William Morris, a vivid array of unfurling flowers creates a contemporary take on traditional florals.


Invest in Comfortable Seating

Winter evenings are made for curling up with a good book or a festive film. A comfy armchair or sofa is a must-have.

Finish with Seasonal Accessories

It’s the little touches that make all the difference. Think softly glowing candles, tactile table runners, and even decorative throws for dining chairs.

The Chloe Faux-Fur Throw Blanket from Anthropologie features feather-fine tipping on the long-pile fibres, providing a plush softness that feels incredible.
