Sophisticated and versatile, Art Deco is an evergreen favourite in our homes for good reason. This season, George Home has really nailed the look with a vibrant update that combines punchy stripes in a range of shades and geometric patterns in a monochrome colourway, finished off with the sweetest ruffled edges and shell-shaped cushions. It’s a thoroughly modern way to reimagine a classic style and great value too.

Always easy-going, neutrals are adaptable and happy to be layered together to create a look that’s tranquil but with subtle depth.
