Style your home with colourful posters

Colours play a fundamental role in interior design, acting as powerful tool to evoke emotions, set moods, and create atmospheres within a space. It's easy to decorate your home with posters, but the right poster can make all the difference in how inviting your space feels. Let's take a closer look at how we can jazz up our interiors with colourful posters.

In 2024, we've witnessed a remarkable surge in the use of colour within interior design. Taking direct influence from 70s free-spirited styles and mixing it with Scandinavian design features filled with rich and organic hues. Think leafy greens, warm terracottas, and mid-shade pastels that are having a moment this year. Art prints featuring landscapes, abstract interpretations of nature, and botanical motifs in these hues will add a soothing touch to any room.

While minimalism continues to be a timeless style with in Scandinavian interiors, we anticipate an evolution within this trend. Minimalist art prints infused with subtle bursts of colour or unexpected textures is poised to gain traction. These prints are an interpretation of simplicity, perfectly suited for contemporary settings. For inspiration, our Atelier no. 2 collection features prints that uniquely blend minimalism with playful food art motifs.

The interplay of colours isn't just about individual pieces—it's about creating a visual symphony that flows seamlessly from one element to the next. A cohesive colour flow not only ties the space together but also infuses it with a sense of harmony and tranquility.

You can pick 2-3 colours from your wall art and use that as your colour palette. This base palette will serve as a cornerstone from which you can build upon with additional layers, textures, and, above all, your unique personality for your space. In fact, the simplest way to decorate a room is to start with this base and then obtain home accessories in complementary colours. This way you can create balance with colourful prints and the neutral as well as vibrant accessories in your room.

While thinking about the colour mood for this year, we can’t help but think about the Japanese concept of "Yugen", which encapsulates a profound sense of mystery and depth often found in the beauty of nature. When combined with colourful posters, this philosophy transforms spaces into depth and intrigue. Consider prints depicting natural vistas or abstract forms, it can either be a painting or a photo, evoking a sense of wonder and serenity. We believe incorporating a touch of 'yugen' into our homes could enrich our lives, with colour choices that make us feel connected to nature and each other.

An interior tip to consider is incorporating soft, feather-like neutrals and cozy warm beiges into your space, reminiscent of natural elements. Pairing these soothing tones with colourful posters—whether they boast dark, bold hues or gentle pastels—will create a contrast allowing the vibrant colours in the posters to pop against the backdrop of neutral tones, enhancing the overall ambiance of your space.

Decorating with colourful posters is a fun way to make your home feel more like you. By understanding a bit about colours and following a few simple rules, you can turn your living space into a masterpiece that not only reflects your style and personality but tells a unique story about you.
