An ode to comfort, the beauty of beige, chocolate brown and sweet chestnut are natural hues that are so easy to come home to.
Especially when blended with bleached woods, solid oak and faux fur.
Adding depth and warmth, they’re the new neutrals in the world of interiors… versatile and welcoming, brown breaks with tradition when you style it with contemporary pieces.
But it also retains that wonderful cocooning, fireside feel with a fun throw over an accent chair, or scented candle styled with pine cones.
Here’s what’s lending richness and texture…
