Midcentury mod with brass and copper finishes are invading the UK so make sure you ride this trend before everyone else does – get in there before Christmas!

Have a look at a few ways to make this work in your home…

Wallpaper

I love this metallic wallpaper by Calico. It’s delicate and subtle and would look fabulous anywhere from the dining room to the bathroom. Team with simple ornaments like these globed vases and an oriental plant.

Tiles

This is a great example of mixing metallics and metal – another trend for 2016. These cool metallic tiles will modernise any kitchen and look super slick next to the aged bronze cage lights, straight out of a Scandi apartment.

Furniture

Don’t stop at walls and floors, you can add a touch of metal to any aspect of your home. I absolutely adore these cool copper stalls paired with the slate and marble decor – decadent yet super simple.

Curtains

A touch of metallic can be incorporated easily through switching up your curtains. Silk or grey velvet will bring that depth to your home and will be bang on trend for 2016. If you go for silk curtains, make sure you get them interlined to avoid fading.
