How to create a London inspired decor

Here is how to introduce a touch of Britain into your decor with a few steps. 

Urban Harmony

Draw your inspiration from London’s urban landscape; turn new into vintage or vintage into new. Dare to mix styles and textures but, for a well-matched decor, explore one single theme. That’s the key to a successfully vibrant, current and elegant British decor.

Painting London

Be bold when creating your London decor using Union Jack colours as inspiration for painting your walls. To perfect the look, use these, or similar, colours:

Use Natural White as a base to paint the ceiling and a few walls. A coat of Nautica Blue on another wall will add intensity. Then tie it all together by introducing Fire Station Red accessories such as curtains, cushions or a carpet. You can also choose to paint some walls Fire Station Red and complete the look with blue accessories.

British Charm

If you prefer more subtle British accents in your decor, choose a monochrome background of white, grey or black on walls and furniture and add blue or red accessories. Choose curtains, cushions, indoor carpets and occasional chairs to brighten the room and enhance your British atmosphere. Here are a few suggestions to add that British touch to your interior decoration:

Hang electric blue curtains on your windows. They will combine perfectly with streamlined red or white shelves that you can decorate with matching-colour storage boxes.

Lastly, energize your decor with prints showing off London’s busy urban lifestyle.
