Tips for tropical styling in your home
Introducing tropical elements to your styling will make your home feel light, airy and relaxed. Perfectly capturing the essence of the tropics, the palm tree has been used as a motif on textiles for centuries with its origins in ancient symbolic traditions. Palm trees traditionally represent peace and harmony and therefore offer a sense of tranquility when styled in your home. Our palm tree motif was designed in-house by our textile team and has featured throughout our collections for many years. Read on to discover our latest palm tree pieces plus our tips for styling them in your home.
Bedroom styling
Offering a gentle nod to the tropics, styling palm trees on the bed is the perfect way to embrace this look without overpowering or dominating the room. Choose bed linen designed with a white base to lighten the look and style with crisp white sheets. Mix in plain white European pillowcases or pick out colours within the palm tree design to use in accent pieces such as natural or green tones.
Complete tropical styling in the bedroom by adding elements that suggest palm tree destinations and living in the tropics. Use wooden or rattan bed side tables and a rattan headboard. If you have space, add a lush green tropical plant or two and update your window treatments to include white wooden shutters or timber blinds. Flowy linen curtains also evoke warm summers and tropical living.
