Rise and Shine: 10 easy ways to refresh your home interior design

When, if not in summer, does the soul crave lightness and radiance? Infuse your home with new colors and bright accents by updating your interior. Radical changes aren't necessary; sometimes, just a few thoughtful details can breathe new life into your space. Here are some ideas to help you welcome the long-awaited summer, hinted at by the whispers of spring.

Paint the Canvas of Your Walls

If resources are enough, consider repainting one or two walls, or even the ceiling, in a new hue. In 2024, pastels and natural, earthy tones are in vogue. Highlight an accent wall with rich shades of green, khaki, plum, or the vibrant orange-red of Marigold flowers.

Illuminate with Warmth

For serene summer evenings, forgo the main lighting in favor of floor lamps, candles, or even mini-fireplaces that cast a soft, inviting glow.

Refresh with Textiles

Home textiles can rejuvenate any room. New curtains, blankets, and decorative pillows in natural materials and light shades, or bold, vibrant patterns, can make a significant difference. Summer is also the perfect time to switch to lighter bedding. Opt for sets made of Tencel or silk, which will pleasantly cool you in the summer and benefit your hair and skin.
