Go with the flow: Summer living

17 Dec 2024

The silly season is well and truly on its way! With all the hustle and bustle that summer brings, introducing a fresh new design in your home is easier than you think. With the help of Resene paint and nood furniture, you can fill your space with vibrant, fun tones and get you ready for entertaining season. 

In Summer 2024/25, rich, bold hues take centre stage, beautifully complementing the softer tones of spring. You’ll find caramel and green shades are trending in furniture and home décor – proving that they can look great in any season. Fun stripes and playful patterns can also add an extra layer to your space, creating a lively atmosphere that’s perfect for summer gatherings. 

The intense orange toned yellow, Resene Fuel Yellow, is sure to brighten up any day this summer. Paired with nood’sRico Baker and Wild Flower Mixing Bowls in Resene Biscotti you’ll have yourself a bright and cheerful summer entertaining space.  

Green is a great choice for summer, reminding us of lush trees and freshly mown grass. In this spaceResene Summer Green (left wall) and Resene Green Pea (right wall) are paired with the fun Little Birds Set in Green and Floral Bloom Vase in Sunshine from nood.  

These fun and colourful Lottie Glass Vases from nood come in a variety of colours to pair with any wall colour. They are a beautiful combination with the wall painted in pink toned terracotta, Resene Soiree.  

If a natural aesthetic is more your thing, you might want to opt for a variety of soft textures, gentle ruffles and subtle flecks that add character without overwhelming your space with colour. 

For a stylish backdrop, Resene Half Tea remains a go-to choice, providing an effortless canvas for showcasing those statement pieces that truly stand out, like this Abbot Modular Sofa in Donkey from nood, where you can combine different pieces to create your own unique setting and change it up as you please.
