Summer Interior Design: Coordinating Upholstery for a Fresh, Seasonal Look
As the warm summer days approach, it’s the perfect time to refresh your home’s interior design. At Karantonis Fabrics & Home in Carle Place, New York, we understand the significant role upholstery plays in creating a cohesive and stylish space. Our experienced interior designers are excited to share tips on how to seamlessly integrate summer-inspired upholstery into your home’s decor.
Embrace a Summer Color Palette When selecting upholstery fabrics for summer, consider light and airy colors that reflect the season. Soft blues reminiscent of clear skies, gentle greens that echo lush foliage, and warm sandy neutrals can create a fresh, summery atmosphere. For a bolder look, introduce pops of sunny yellow or coral to energize your space.
Incorporate Light and Breezy Textures Summer calls for fabrics that feel cool and comfortable. Consider lightweight linens, crisp cottons, or breathable performance fabrics that can withstand the season’s heat and humidity. These textures not only look fresh but also provide comfort during warm days.
Play with Summer-Inspired Patterns Introduce patterns that evoke a summer feeling. Botanical prints, coastal stripes, or tropical motifs can add a seasonal touch to your upholstery. Remember to balance bold patterns with solid colors to maintain a cohesive look.
Create an Indoor-Outdoor Flow With summer being the perfect time for indoor-outdoor living, consider coordinating your interior upholstery with your outdoor furniture. This creates a seamless transition between spaces and expands your living area.
Prioritize Durability for Summer Living Summer often means increased indoor-outdoor traffic, entertaining, and family activities. Choose upholstery fabrics that are durable and easy to clean. Look for fade-resistant options to protect against strong summer sunlight, especially for pieces near windows.
Use Upholstery to Create a Seasonal Focal Point Make a statement with a summer-inspired focal piece. A sofa in a vibrant tropical print or an armchair in a serene ocean blue can become the centerpiece of your room, around which you can build the rest of your summer decor.
