Fresh Spring Colours to Brighten Your Space

Spring 2026 is embracing a balance of soft pastels and grounded, nature-inspired tones, perfect for creating a calm yet uplifting interior.

These shades work beautifully together, allowing you to layer cushions without overwhelming your space. Soft pastels bring a light, airy feel, while earthy tones add warmth and depth. 

Styling tip: Start with a neutral base cushion and add 2–3 accent colours for a balanced, designer look.

Trending textures include:

Styling tip: Mix at least two textures on your sofa to avoid a flat, one-dimensional look. If you are struggling to achieve this look, shopping our Cushion Combinations is a great place to start!

Patterns Making a Comeback

Spring is the perfect time to introduce pattern and this year, it’s all about soft, nature-inspired and timeless designs.

On-trend patterns:

Styling tip: Combine one patterned cushion with two plain ones to keep the look cohesive. Our Spring Pastel Combination is perfect for this!

The Overall Look: Effortless, Layered & Natural

Natural materials, calming colours, and thoughtful layering all play a role in achieving this look.
