A new year brings new styles and trends to the world of design. With the input of one of our Cellar Maison
concept designers, Samuel Deacon, we highlight for you, the top trends forecast for 2017. We also look at what’s
timeless, classic – and the importance of choosing what YOU like and what suits your tastes within the space of
your home or business.
COLOUR
A quick browse on Pinterest or style blogs will give you a good idea on the colours trending for 2017. It can be
inspirational to have a browse and see what you like. Sometimes it’s a good chance to refresh a few tired
furnishings or features of your home – Or perhaps, it’s time for a bigger renovation incorporating a long wished
for Wine Cellar, Wine Pod or Wine Wall?
This year we are bringing our interiors back to nature, introducing earthy tones and the incorporating blues
and greens to create a harmonious and calming environment.
Pantone’s colour of the year is the aptly named ‘Greenery’ a refreshing shade of green that ‘is symbolic of new
beginnings.’
This bold shade could be the much-needed breath of fresh air on your walls, or introduced into your accessories
and soft furnishings for a more subtle splash of this vivid burst of green. It echoes nature in its freshness
and vibe of spring time growth.
In contrast, Dulux have named ‘Denim Drift’ as the colour of the year, a less daring but nonetheless a natural
shade that will compliment many interior spaces.
Dulux have chosen this colour on review of current trends in architecture and fashion, selecting a cool tone that
would work well in any room of the house. The bluey-grey is a great choice as its neutral undertones can be
paired with many materials, enhancing their natural qualities – Think of this with beautiful natural wood, or
perhaps features of copper, brass or bronze – all used in our wine rooms, along with the sleek, frameless glass
of our signature cellars.
MATERIALS
The materials that are forecast to trend in 2017 are also themed on the concept of returning to nature. The use
of cork and terracotta are predicted to make a reappearance. Both provide a warm and textured aesthetic to your
interior. A functional and beautifully textured cork wall is a great backdrop for vibrant and natural plant
life. When incorporated into a wine cellar, we can bring in a variety of elements that not only compliment your
existing interiors, but that become a feature that people are immediately drawn to.
