As the nights draw in, you may be thinking about a home renovation project. At Designs for Life Kitchen & Bathroom showroom in St Helens, we are on hand to guide you through current trends and
help your transformation. Here are our top tips to inspire your design…
1: Global Inspiration
Our desire to travel continues to expand as it becomes easier to explore different destinations. If there is a certain country’s style you have loved – white-washed walls and blue doors reminiscent of the Greek Islands, or terracotta paint and intricate patterns indicative of Morocco – why not look for ways to embrace your favourite culture, in your home.
2: Subtle colours and abstract shapes
In 2025, it’s time to inject some more fun into your home, especially with the use of tiles in your bathroom or kitchen. Using vibrant textures and abstract shapes, your walls and floors can
take on a life of their own. Especially perfect for those who sway towards a more linear design, abstract shapes can break up areas in inspirational ways and create a space that is truly unique.
3: Upcycling and self-making
The world has gone ‘craft-mad’, and our affinity for Pinterest is certainly something to do with that. When you combine our love of crafts with a newfound eco-consciousness, upcycling and self
making is the obvious outcome. If you’ve got a crafty streak, then displaying your ‘makes’ is a great idea. Whether you crochet or build furniture, there are myriad ways to display your designs and creations in your home. And, if you aren’t very crafty, many stores offer unique home accessories, so you don’t need to make a thing. Or, why not try to find a local craft class or club and try your hand at something new – loom-weaving anybody?
4: Biophilic design
Indoor plants have been increasingly popular for some time now. Why not do more than just bringing plants inside, biophilic design involves bringing nature inside. We are here to help design a perfect kitchen that brings the outside in! Also adding wooden tones, tertiary colours and more natural textures like hemp and cotton, you can give a more natural flair to any space.
5: Grandmillennial
A new word in the design world, “grandmillennial” embraces both a type of person, and a style of design. Bringing olde-world style designs to a modern space, this is perfect for someone who loves a more traditionally styled space. If you have a loved item you bought at a charity shop or an online auction, share it with us and we can use this to create an individual kitchen or bathroom style that you will love.
6: Social Spaces
As staying in becomes the new going out, having social spaces in our homes is more important than ever. If you do want to make your space more social, then altering the kitchen is the perfect
place to start.
