We change our wardrobes seasonally, paying close attention to current trends and fashions, while trying to maintain our own style. Well why not our home décor too? You have the opportunity to express your personal style by surrounding yourself with items that are not only practical, but also bring you joy. Consider how you can start with a blank canvas, but change your environment through furnishings, fabrics and texture regularly. When you are looking for inspiration for your seasonal home, it is worth looking at the homes of other fashion designers to see how they dress their interior space.
Andrew Gn
Andrew Gn’s Paris apartment is constantly evolving, heavily influenced by his experience and changing tastes. For many years, it was decadent and lush, following in the style of Paul Poirot. It was filled with lavish Louis XV furniture and Rococo-style interiors. There was a mix of animal prints (he also featured print mixes in his collections), heavy paints and ornamental features – all elements we saw in his runway shows too. But as Andrew Gn’s world experience and view has changed, so has his apartment. His home is now streamlined, combining a color-palette that is reminiscent of Mediterranean holidays. He has taken the move to contemporary modern with a heavy botanical influence. Both his fashion design and personal home decor have evolved with the times to create a thing of beauty.
Lisa Perry
Lisa Perry’s home is designed without compromise. If you want to create your ideal space too, it’s worth making a financial investment, so you can remodel your home to suit your needs and aesthetic taste. A remortgage is a good way of organizing capital to purchase decor and furnishings that are right for you. Ultimately, you are not only adding to the value of your home, but also creating a personal haven that brings you happiness. Lisa Perry’s style is a complete reflection of her fashion design – the walls are sleek and white with vibrant pops of color. Her home is bold, crisp and clean, and very carefully considered: a masterclass in interior design.
Joseph Mimran and Kimberley Newport-Mimran
If you want to change your home seasonally, then the apartment of Joe Fresh founders is great inspiration. They mix furnishings and fabrics in neutral colors, but still focusing on texture – there is a heavy use of faux fur and velvet. Where their decor is completely unique is in the use of striking oversized artwork on the walls. The Mimran powerhouse are not relying on dull paint or wallpaper – their home is making a statement through incredible modern art.
If you want your home to be as fashion-forward as you are, then look to the designers for some incredible inspiration. Your living space should reflect your personality as much as the clothes you wear everyday.
Your environment is a very important part of your everyday experience, as it has a clear influence on the way you feel and on how you do things. The colors, shapes and details you surround yourself with have an immediate impact on yourself, so it is very important to make sure that your home and office are the best they can be so that you can obtain the goals you are striving for.
