As the hustle and bustle of life picks back up again, keep your home feeling fresh and relaxed this summer by following these simple tricks to create resort living, at home.
The easiest way to add a relaxing vibe to any room is to use elements that reflect your favourite holiday destination. Want to be transported to a tropical paradise? Include large doors to extend open living, bringing the outside inside and creating cross ventilation. Add big leafy palms and consider using a dark colour palette when it comes to furniture and finishes.
If a luxe island escape is what you are after, set the tone for the whole home by choosing a palette of natural materials, matte white colours and brass accents.
For feelings of grandeur, adding wooden paneling to ceilings and emphasising floor ceiling height with drop down pendants and ceiling fans will evoke a grandeur resort seen in the likes of Fiji or the Whitsunday Islands.
Get the resort look by starting with bamboo ceiling fans.
