It’s the time of year where trend forecasts begin so I thought I’d create my own set of micro styles based on some of the many fabulous interiors I’ve collected from instagram and beyond. Maybe they’ll be big in 2026!
Bubblegum
Filled with light pastel shades of baby pink and powder blue as well as whimsical patterns, gentle curves, and unexpected textural accents, Bubblegum is an adorable take on maximalism, curated for maximum sweetness.
Poetic Minimalism
Telling a story with unusual accents, warm neutral shades, and a considered use of detail, Poetic Minimalism is selective with its clutter and uses a curated palette to infuse character and tell a tale.
Retro Futures
Taking funky cues from the 70s, elegant Mid Mod shapes, and a contemporary eye for colour, Retro Futures is the perfect 21st century take on vintage. Playful colour combinations, eclectic furniture, and wacky patterns create interiors exploding with personality.
Primal Dream
Colours of the earth, hand made textures, and organic shapes create imagined histories for Primal Dream. Mixing in a few modern comforts adds a stylised layer whilst the irregular shapes and patterns offer grounding and charm.
Memphis Modern
Colourful geometrics in classic Memphis style pair with contemporary restraint and refinement for a new take on this 80s Art Deco/Pop Art mash-up. Whether it’s a feature wall, decorative bar, or funky fireplace, a touch of Memphis makes magic.
