Read on and find out how you can get ahead of the curve on this rising trend!
Celebrate Existing Curves in your Home
Make sure to showcase any curved lines already present, such as curved archways or window frames, emphasizing them as a focal point.
Rounded finishes produce a room that flows, allowing your home to feel more inviting and effortless. Ensure curved archways, doorways, and windows become focal points within your space, accentuating with striking geometric prints and finishes found within our Cuba Collection. Drive your space in a maximalist direction with the collection’s conversational prints, channeling characterful Cuban architecture. Set the perfect backdrop to contemporary living through floor-length curtains set within towering archways, offset against impactful embroideries and bouclé finishes for added depth and intrigue.
Stay Down to Earth with Calming Neutral Tones
Gentle shades of white and earthy tones go hand-in-hand with curves to create a serene scheme, and complement dramatic monochrome hues perfectly.
Softer, warming neutrals, off-white tones, and cosy creams contrast striking monochrome geometrics perfectly, and feel more inviting than cooler tones of white. Instantly transform your room into a cocooning retreat by pairing with thick, enveloping fabrics sporting bouclé finishes, complete with circular furnishings and accessories. Neutral tones also give a nod to the serenity of the outdoors, so pair with natural materials such as exposed brickwork and curated pampas fronds for a light and airy feel.
Make a Sweeping Statement with Curved Furniture and Accessories
Rounded edges and arched shapes are perfect for creating a relaxed design scheme, with statement furniture pieces the perfect place to start instilling curves into your home.
Soft, curved lines create a sense of continuous movement, inviting a luxuriously spacious feel into your home. Intriguing, curved vases, circular coffee tables, and scalloped armchairs or sofas are perfect for showcasing dramatic twists and turns within your space, creating an inviting and enveloping atmosphere for your guests. Present with indulgent cut velvets reminiscent of the Art Deco era finished in opulent jewel tones for a cocooning scheme brimming with interest.
