A Guide to Warming Up Your Space



With Winter upon us most people lean into the cozy season and like to make their home extra warm and inviting for their friends and families. It’s a great time to start collecting a few new design elements that will bring that lived-in warmth to your space. Today we’re going to highlight some of our favorite pieces in the textures and colors that we think bring immense warmth into a room and some styling tips to make it all come together.


The power of incorporating color and texture can truly make a huge difference in design. Moody tones and darker accent colors like black and brushed gold not only elevate your design but bring forward warmth as well. Artwork with antique inspired frames, cozy throw pillows, and textured accessories are all examples of pieces that can warm up your home.



Lighting also plays a key role in making a space feel warm and inviting. Table lamps in unique designs are perfect for bringing in the warm lighting element. Even better if the lamps throughout your home are a bit mix-matched to really give it that eclectic design aesthetic.

Layering is an extremely important element in interior design and especially if you’re going for the lived-in home look that will make everyone feel like part of the family. Try using a decorative tray styled with vases in a variety of shapes or have different sized photo frames next to each other on your shelves with unique figurines curated throughout. Another great tip is to use items that will create layers of different heights in your decor. An easy way to do this is stacking beautiful books on top of one another to feature different home accessories.



Layering also comes into play with furniture. Add a few extra pillows on to your sofa and finish it off with a chunky knit throw blanket. Add your collected treasures to your side table to spark up conversation and make the space feel full. A warm and inviting atmosphere is what we’re going for.


Warming up your space for the cozy season is a must and all of your friends and family who are coming over for the holidays will love your attention to detail. There’s no need for a full home redesign, simply add in a few of those key pieces that encapsulate cozy textures and warm colors. You can utilize accessories you already have to create the layering effect and move around some artwork to create a refreshed and warm space for you family and any guests you may have in this festive season. Follow these tips and a warm and inviting home is achievable for anyone.
