Furniture Refresh! Brighten Up Your Space With These Exciting Pieces
Are you ready for a lighter touch? Brighten up your interior design with these exciting pieces of light-colored furniture.
Looking for a Design Refresh?
Any time is a fantastic time to revitalize the look of your interior and maybe even buy a few core pieces of furniture to liven up your space. Lighter color profiles, pops of pastels, or even a fresh new pattern to upholstery can make your rooms feel new again.
Enlivening Design Elements
When you're looking to create a light, airy, and energetic feel to your interior design using light-colored furniture, choose elements that celebrate nature.
Color
For a design refresh featuring a lighter color profile, consider a palette with bright pastels mixed with natural greens and crisp whites.
Natural Materials
Materials that work well for this look include light natural wood (white-washed wood also works), rattan, and lighter-colored leather.
The Siesta Key Woven Bed with Rattan and Banana Leaf comes to us from the Tommy Bahama Home Ocean Breeze collection. It looks amazing in this setting with floral and light-blue accessories.
Texture
For a profile room with a lighter color, consider textures that are as soft as morning rain. That means that your beds should be well-dressed with fluffy bedding, and your sofas should feel like sitting on a cloud.
The Tommy Bahama Home Coral Gables Sofa from the Ocean Breeze collection is welcoming seating with a blank canvas - dress it up with throw pillows in your favorite palette.
Simplicity
Starting fresh gives you the opportunity to scale down. Over time, items make their way into the living rooms, hallways, and foyers of all our homes.
Redecorating is a time to pull back and get organized. Whether you like minimalist décor or want your décor of choice to own the space, storage furniture is always worth the investment.
We’re pretty excited about the Tommy Bahama Home Turtle Point Buffet. It features a sandblasted glass wave design and interior lights that give it an ethereal ambient effect. This is a subtly beautiful piece of furniture with clean lines, soft edges, and a natural wood finish. Not to mention, it is a great way to organize your living room or dining room space.
How to Approach Your Design Refresh
How you decide to go about refreshing your space depends largely on two things: budget and vision. If you’re considering doing a full makeover — paint, furniture, accessories, etc., just make certain that you’ve allocated the resources for the project.
Otherwise, focus on making smaller changes that bring you the maximum level of enjoyment. Here are a few starting points:
Choose a Color Palette – You may want to work with your existing furniture or color scheme, so pick a lighter color palette that goes with whatever you want to keep. We advocate a 60-30-10 color scheme. 60% of the room should be the primary color, 30% the secondary color, and 10% for trim and accessories. If your decorative tastes lean more toward’s neutrals, make the lightest color your primary.
Choose your Furniture Wisely – Replacing an entire bedroom, living room, dining room, etc., is a long-term decision. By selecting high-quality pieces that will age slowly, you can avoid a cycle of rapid replacement. Moreover, durable, high-quality pieces are more sustainable, and there’s no better way to celebrate a fresh approach than by looking after the environment.
Use Accents – You don’t need to change your entire space for a design refresh. By adding a new accent piece and a few accessories, you can change the look of an entire room. Check out the design elements in this Tommy Bahama Home Island Estate Loose Back Wicker Rum Beach Chair. The light-colored, soft-textured cushions exude airiness, while the rattan frame fits nicely with any color palette.
