For many it’s now time to think about the inside of our homes and how best to make the most from the coming chillier months. That can often mean creating a cosy and inviting nesting experience. Although, when it comes to choosing new indoor furniture or accessories it shouldn’t ever be a chore. Moreover, Autumn are the perfect months to begin thinking about any changes or upgrades that have been put on the back burner for months. Whatever your interior style there’s something to suit everybody in the range available through Inside Out Living. Today we intend to take you on a brisk autumnal walk through just some of our favourite modern decor options.
Take a Seat and Savour Your Home
Seating is rightly a huge factor to any interior style. We’ve got a majestic and stylish array of plush single seat armchairs, double sofas, occasional chairs, tub chairs, chairs with matching footstools and all in a variety of colours that are made from a host of different fabrics and materials. Here are some of our favourites so far this year:
The Leather ArmChair – Antique Brown
With its plump yet rib effect leather padded seat and back panel this suave sophisticated armchair speaks to all the right touch points of retro styled indoor furniture. We particularly like the relaxed slanted tilt and the fact it’s made from solid oak. Whether opting for the antique brown or the vintage black either option would slide into many homes with ease and slickness.
A no brainer of a pick in our estimation with it’s quintessential Nordic stylings and pleasingly easy on the eye curved lines, we’re of the thinking that this slice of modern decor would suit many contemporary homes. Birch wood contrasts nicely against the cement grey of the plush double cushions.
The Decadence Chair and Footstool in Chevron Grey
The clue is really in the name, darling. So, please grab your martini and nestle into the stately chic and comfort of this wonderfully unique chair and footstool. The chevron design sets it apart from the rest, but at no cost to comfort featuring a ideally heighted footstool for extra comfort whilst you kick back and enjoy your tipple.
The Warehouse Sofa – Toffee Brown Leather
Another leather pick and not at all too dissimilar to the Leather armchair, instead this time add a companion to your spongey seating experience but at absolutely no cost too visual appeal. This retro feeling sofa will surely endure for years to come and it’s a wholly versatile shade meaning it will slide all too easily next to your existing indoor furniture.
Reflections on mirrors.
A mirror is a great way to introduce more light into the home, whilst it also adds an illusion of depth for a room, too. It doesn’t need to be a bland utilitarian looking slab of glass either, why not get creative with shape and space?! Our selection proudly offers varying sizes and contours to best match your interior style; from round slim rims, to large rectangular bevelled options and even multi layer frames. Here’s just a few stand out options that have stood out this year:
Round mirrors have had somewhat of a renaissance in recent years and with this lovely modern version you’ll gain a symmetrical piece but with a nod to earthy organic modern decor. That’s because the lovely mahogany, teak and mango wood mix wood frame gives off a rich and broody colour. Boho yet contemporary, too.
Another round option but this time offering a more refined take on the circular mirror. The sleek protruding bronze border of this mirror ticks all the right boxes for modern indoor furniture. It’s somewhat stately but entirely understated, too.
This bevelled mirror doesn’t fit squarely (or should we say rectangularly) into the typical mould of the bevelled genre, that’s because it has a wonderfully intriguing triple corrugated bevel edge. Unique and arty, it’s an exercise of light refraction and distortion which will interest the eye and add texture to any interior style.
Perusing Pouffes
Although tried tested and ever enduring there’s something a simple footstool can’t quite deliver on, and that’s the mobility and versatility factors; something which all good pouffe’s do provide. Our selection certainly do just that, with options in thick knits, padded and patterned fabrics. Here’s some of the best.
You’ll never get bored of the appealing look of this thick knit wonder. Whether being used as a foot stool or for extra seating, it’s destined to provide plenty of use. It will also just look nice as a piece of décor and will pair excellently with other rustic or modern indoor furniture.
A striking pattern that takes its cues from the world of art and design make this a leg rest/seat that won’t be forgotten in a hurry. The grey tone of the chevron design enables easy integration into many modern decor arrangements. It’s size ensure easy storage when not needed, too.
As the name implies there’s a sunny shade displayed on this pouffe, in the form of an intricate woven design. This pouffe offers a more cube like shape and would simply uplift any room it’s placed in.
Illuminate the darker evenings with candles
A perfect accompaniment when placed on a mantlepiece or on indoor furniture such as a console table, sideboard or coffee table. The humble flicker of a candle in these incoming darker evenings will always provide and ambience and spectacle. And why not add some interest to your candle(s) by placing it in a holder. Here’s just a few options to consider:
The Kensington Townhouse Candle holder
This fine and majestic tall holder comes in a bronzed iron and is typified by its cylindrical glass casing, which is not only a means of protecting against any drafts but also refracts the flame nicely. We think it’s clearly versatile so will slot amongst all kinds of interior style.
Quadruple the light for your interior with this elegant yet simple four candle holder. A pleasingly uniform line of candles slots into the metal frame which comes complete with a centralised carry arm which in no way takes away from the fine aesthetic of this holder.
Sometimes less is more and with this singular tea light holder that doubles as an ornament you’ll achieve the unique sparkle that many a modern decor plan calls for. When not lit up it’ll serve nicely atop of a elevated console table or mantlepiece.
Ceramics will always be a fashionable choice in the world of indoor furniture and accessories, however easily broken and chipped. Which is why this faux ceramic resin displayed on the honeycomb small candle holder is a popular alternative with no less of the visual appeal of a traditional ceramic. We especially love the raised gold detailing.
Dine in Style
It’s not just the living room that has our attentions this year, the dining room and kitchen has also captured our imaginations. When scoping out dinnerware and serving options we thought the more creative the better, there’s something about the world of culinary design that allows a certain playfulness. See our mini-run down below:
You may recognise the Cheeseplant theme amongst a number of our accessories, ranging from prints on jugs to ornaments. This lovely unique serving plate is keeping with our obsession of the memorable leaf of this exotic plant. What’s not to love!
Maybe you’re a fan of sea food and shellfish? Us too. If you’re trying to perfect the art of plucking that slippery mussel from its shell with a fork or the like and getting nowhere – why not invest in these lovely mussel shaped tweezers – there’s definitely no confusing what their use is!
We’re all for a pun and this carved beechwood serving dish ensures you can serve salt and pepper to guests with a laugh thrown in.
Finishing this list (and all good meals in our estimation) is the cheese course. But there’s no use serving a selection of cheeses without a worthy utensil offering to tackle the gruyere from the gorgonzola. With this stainless steel set in a tasteful black it’s sure to suit much modern decor.
The above is just a small selection of the many indoor furniture and accessories available through Inside Out Living, in what is an expanding range, these are just some stand out favourites from this year.
