    Sculptural Furniture

    Sculptural Furniture

    The 'cave' trend that we observed in interiors, is also happening to furniture and decorative elements. Sofas, lamps, cupboards, tables and chairs, you name it! Organic, flowing shapes can be found everywhere, preferably in natural, soft colours.

    Art, especially sculpture, has long been an important inspiration for designing furniture. Both disciplines influence each other, but where should one draw the line? When is something art and when is it design? Sculptural furniture is located in the grey zone between functional sculptures and non-functional design.

    Sculptural furniture has obviously existed longer than today. The difference now is that they appear more and more in an organic and artisan form. The pieces of furniture seem to be handmade and for the construction they regularly rely on natural materials such as wood, natural stone or clay. The pieces of furniture are most beautiful in combination with an interior that is very sleek in terms of form, in this way the piece of furniture can claim all the attention. Are you still looking for a unique piece? Then I advise you to take a look at the Carved Collection of the Australian brand Future Collective or Ossicle, a furniture collection by Giobagnara in collaboration with Francesco Balzano. Or anywhere else, honestly, the possibilities are endless!

    Monochrome interiors

    Monochrome interiors

    Monochromatic interiors in natural shades such as beige, brown and grey are coming more and more to the fore in the interior scene. The term 'monochrome' is often used in the description of art, fashion or interiors. It means "consisting of or using a single colour or similar colour palette". Vincent Van Duysen, for example, has known this for a long time and regularly uses a simple colour palette to radiate timelessness. Posh Feng Shui, Andrew Trotter, Yaroslav Priadka and Photonic Studio have also tried this trend in their projects that you can see on the images.

    The difference with previous monochrome interiors is that now also the furniture is selected in a matching. The result is an interior that blends together and radiates tranquillity. The difficulty with a monochrome interior is that it quickly feels flat. To counteract this problem it is best to use textures and different materials. The choice of colour is therefore replaced by the choice of material. The materials you regularly find in these interiors are often natural with a rough undertone such as concrete, wood and plaster. A monochrome, sober colour palette radiates modesty and therefore luxury and refinement. By adding small details, this simplicity never becomes boring.

    Artistic designs

    Artistic designs

    Sometimes pieces of designer furniture or decoration are so unique an sculptural that we can almost regards them as art. Here, we bring together some beautiful and exclusieve pieces with at artsy touch and always with a luxurious aesthetics and feel.

    Think of it as the best of both worlds, because these designs are both functional and intriguing to look at and they tell a story like a real work of art does. That, of course, is the power of real top design, that it is designed from a completely different idea than simply starting from the function it should have in a household. We wouldn't be surprised if we saw these pieces in the middle of a museum space, but you can also use them at home.

    We are already big fans of this trend that also feels very summery, because because these pieces of furniture and decoration do not adhere to certain conditions for a standard interior, they literally colour outside the lines.

    Moreover, we didn't have to look far for examples of this trend, because in our own country there is already a lot of design talent that we recently put in the spotlight in the Spring 2020 edition of Imagicasa Magazine.

    Earthy colours

    Earthy colours

    The earth has many riches and in 2020 we embrace them all. A natural colour palette and the use of wood in an interior is nothing new of course, but the way we deal with it this year goes a step further. In colours, materials and shapes we bring nature inside. We see this also in these pieces of furniture and decorative objects that we put in the spotlight here.

    Nature has many form and the most striking is of course wood. This material may therefore be abundantly present in an interior and will always create a timeless atmosphere. Moreover, it is something very characterful and especially the colour variations in darker wood are visually very pleasing! The sustainable aspect of this material should of course not be forgotten, because that remains a very important fact if we want to enjoy our earth for as long as possible.

    Don't be put off by the rougher character of wood, stone and other natural materials. They give a space not only warmth, but also definition. Any imperfections are part of it and create a certain uniqueness.

    Feel free to play with relief in larger surfaces such as walls or cupboards for some extra liveliness. By staying within the earthy colours, this also provides a calming feeling.

    The revival of Art Deco

    The revival of Art Deco

    Although here at Imagicasa we have an obvious weak spot for mid-century modern, it's worth going a little further into history in search of inspiration. This is what a lot of contemporary designers and architects also do. It is now about a hundred years ago that the style movement Art Deco made its appearance. The successor to Art Nouveau was particularly popular in the 20s and 30s of the last century, but given the ever-increasing interest in vintage design, these designs are now also once again getting more and more attention.

    Here we highlight a few beautiful pieces that are clearly based on the specific style movement of a century ago in which geometry, colour and surprising decorative elements played an important role. The 'Monterey' chair by Marie's Corner plays with shapes and various influences, just like Elena Salmistraro's 'Roue' bookshelf for Emmemobili. The Belgian top architect and designer Vincent Van Duysen created a functional but dynamic collection for Molteni. In addition, the 'Irving' sideboards are made of a combination of wood, metal and natural stone, which is another characteristic of art deco.

    The use of natural materials and especially the combination of these is something we also see in Casalto's 'Vendôme' side table, Ferruccio Laviani's 'UFO' table and the 'Aiko' sideboard for Emmemobili and the 'Oliver Boiserie' system of the same brand, where brass profiles were placed on veneered wood panels.

    Bring in nature with green

    Bring in nature with green

    Various colours have already been proclaimed 'the colour of the year 2020', but green is also making its appearance this year and is already very fashionable. Lately we see a tendency of more daring interiors with busy patterns, special wallpaper and different textures and drawings being combined. Also in terms of colours, designers and home owners no longer stick to basic beige, grey and white, but are experimenting with brighter colours. We have already seen orange, terracotta and blue pass by, and now green is also making its reappearance in interiors. In the sixties and seventies this colour was also very fashionable for a while and it is no surprise that it is now trending again.

    It immediately gives your interior a natural look and feel and depending on the type of green it provides tranquillity or a bold pop of colour. Again, you can go as daring as you want. A few green accents in cushions, decorations or furniture can be enough to bring some colour into your interior and add that perfect finishing touch. Another option is to go green all the way and combine different shades in your furniture, wallpaper and decoration.

    Pantone Colour of 2020: Classic Blue

    Pantone Colour of 2020: Classic Blue

    Since the beginning of this century, Pantone has been presenting the 'colour of the year' every year. As is the case every year, many interior, design and fashion brands start working with this trend colour and present existing or new designs with which you can give your life extra colour. For 2020, the colour specialist proposes a slightly more traditional colour. After less obvious colours such as 'Greenery', 'Ultra Violet' and 'Living Coral', the timeless 'Classic Blue' is now in the spotlight. That choice was not made without reason. Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, explained the following: "We are living in a time that requires trust and faith. It is this kind of constancy and confidence that is expressed by Pantone 19-4052 Classic Blue, a solid and dependable blue hue we can always rely on."

    The great thing about this colour is that many people probably already have it in their homes. This royal blue gives a stylish touch to an interior without distracting too much. Also, the colour is not specifically for winter, nor is it very summery, so you can let the colour accents shine in your home throughout the year. 

    Are you a fan of this colour and you want to give your interior a small or larger update, then you will find a lot of beautiful inspiration nowadays. What do you think of this table lamp by Living Spaces, the geometric tray by Hay or the side table by Patricia Urquiola for Editions Milano? The velvet sofa from Ethnicraft is also a beautiful statement piece, just like the lounge chair designed by Carlo De Carli (available at Gubi) and the 'Floss' coffee table from our partner Nestor & Rotsen.

    Not afraid of something that’s a little bit ‘extra’? Then go for an eye-catching staircase, intermediate wall or even an entire room dressed in blue.

    Terracotta: timeless and warm

    Terracotta: timeless and warm

    A colour and also a material that has been fashionable for a while now and will undoubtedly remain so for some time to come is terracotta. Earthy colours may be popular and trending now, but according to Imagicasa, they are also truly timeless. Choose shades of brown, terracotta, orange, etc. and combine them. Cosy, warm and stylish. 

    You can bring earthy colours and materials into your interior in different ways. With decorative objects, fabrics, furniture and even in your wallpaper or wall colour. Brown, nude and pink tones often play the leading role here and form the soft basis of the palette. You can make this stand out even more by adding accents of orange, bright pink or bordeaux. You can also perfectly bring this colour into several elements. Tone on tone fits very nicely with red, pink and terracotta tones. In combination with dramatic, dark bordeaux you get a stylish and warm effect. A colour that probably doesn't occur to you first but is also very easy to combine with terracotta colours, is green. This fits in nicely with the natural atmosphere. Just make sure you don't exaggerate with bright shades and opt for olive or lime green. Pastel colours also make for a beautiful whole when combined with these trend colours.

    Don't be afraid to use the terracotta palette beyond your living room. Why not in your bathroom for example!

    Terrazzo: Stylish specks

    Terrazzo: Stylish specks

    The Terrazzo look made a comeback this year and we think this playful and stylish trend will stay in fashion for a while! 

    Terrazzo is a subtle material that consists of marble grains or grains of other materials that are printed in (sometimes coloured) cement or clay and polished after drying. It is THE alternative to marble and has a unique character with quirky prints and many different colours. In this way, you have a beautiful stone with texture and a fine motif to give your interior a special eye-catcher. The stone is also very durable. 

    You certainly don't have to stick to the traditional finish, as in floors. Now, there are a lot of beautiful decorative pieces and furniture in this material available as well. In the kitchen, Terrazzo is mainly used as a floor or in the kitchen worktop, but it can also be very nice to use it as an accent wall, for example as a splash wall. 

    Also in the bathroom you can use this finish beautifully. Give the room a little extra by, for example, making the shower in Terrazzo or go all the way and finish the whole bathroom, walls and floors, in the playful stone.

    Furthermore, it can also be a nice detail for the bedroom, living room, hallway and so on. With Terrazzo you can go far and dramatic with, for example, busy and colourful prints, but also subtle and refined with small, inconspicuous specks. If you don't want a whole wall or floor in the material and you're a little afraid that it will be too overwhelming, you can choose furniture and accessories such as cushions, carpets and vases in Terrazzo-print.

    Spot on!

    Organic curves are a thing

    Organic curves are a thing

    This year, soft, round shapes were re-introduced and are now once again an integral part of our interiors. The organic forms break through the clean, straight lines and make your interior more playful. The forms that derive from nature create an instant feelgood atmosphere.

    The organic shaped it item is by far the round pouffe. Yet, there are many other fun ways to bring this trend into your home.

    Round dining table
    A round (or oval) dining table offers many advantages. First of all, it takes up less space than a rectangular table and still has the same number of seats, so it's perfect for those who live in a small home. On top of that, it is also much more comfortable to sit around a round table with your guests, because it makes it much easier to talk to each other.

    Tip
    A nice addition to a round dining table is to place a round carpet underneath it to create an extra sense of coziness.

    Softly shaped chairs
    A round table requires to be surrounded by softly shaped chairs, instead of sleek and angular models. In this way you keep the playfulness that you brought into your interior through the round table. A velvet version gives the whole an additional luxurious touch.

    Curvy sofa
    The curvy sofa is also an unmissable trend. Large benches with rounded corners and wavy lines are beautiful to look at from all sides. Does such a sofa take up more space than an ordinary rectangular sofa? It might, but who lives to be boring and not to take any risks? You lose a few centimeters but gain a ton of style!

    Round mirror
    There’s nothing wrong with hanging your rectangular mirror perfectly parallel to that rectangular cabinet but you could also try breaking through those clean lines with a round mirror. You'll be amazed by the soothing effect. Besides, with a round mirror you can't see if it's hanging crookedly!

    Nowadays, there are so many beautiful, fun and surprising things you can do with wallpaper and other wall coverings to give your interior that little bit extra. Arte has an extensive range of different, unique coverings and, just like in the world of fashion, the interior trends are constantly changing. At the moment, we are seeing different trends in the decoration of your walls. Here, Imagicasa and Arte put them together.

    A first style that we see appearing more and more, is the jungle theme. "That is still and will remain hot," says Arte, "inside and outside this theme, there are a lot of animals visually present." We see a lot of tropical wallpaper with applicable birds, butterflies, leaves and flowers. Of course, green tones are often found in jungle wallpaper. Golden details in your interior can be perfectly combined with this.

    Natural tactile materials, real or imitation but real-looking, are also very popular to cover your walls with. You can go for a leather look or a nice texture. In the Atelier collection of Arte you will find beautiful examples of this.

    Geometric shapes and the combination of round and straight patterns are also making their advance in wall design. Or as Arte calls it: the 'Memphis style'.

    Finally, Arte shows us a colour that is very fashionable – and according to Imagicasa timeless – namely earthy colours. You can choose shades of brown, terracotta, orange and so on. Cosy, warm and stylish!

    Trending - dark tones, lines and geometry in your interior

    Ferm LIVING is a Danish design studio with a true passion for design, craftsmanship and aesthetics.

The interiors exude tranquillity and elegance and the colour palette of grey, green, blue, black and burgundy is timeless. The collection is based on geometric shapes, but remains faithful to the distinctive style of the Danish brand. You'll find a beautiful balance of glossy surfaces, textures, simple lines and sculptural shapes. Vertical lines are not only reflected in the wallpaper, but also in their collection of glasses and flowerpots.

    Natural stone and tile trends 2019-2020

    Natural stone and tile trends 2019-2020

    Spring cleaning? Need for something new? Do you want to give your home a fresh update? With a new sofe or coffee table, your living room will get a new look in no time at all. And a fresh lick of paint in the kitchen makes it shine again. But know that with natural stone you can truly give an interior just that little bit extra. Imagicasa consulted her partner Beltrami for the trends in floor and wall coverings. Also know that with natural stone you always choose a timeless and sustainable material that becomes even more beautiful with time!

    Warmth
    Declared the trend colour of 2019, 'living coral' is the mature version of the pink shades that have become increasingly popular in recent years. This coral orange has a rose-red and golden undertone and therefore radiates more warmth. A travertine floor fits in perfectly with this trend, but Beltrami also has a lot of distinct marbles and breccias that fall within this characteristic colour palette. There is the Rosso Francia, the Quatre Saison d'été or the Breccia Pernice.
    Want to bring a little contrast or drama to your interior in another way? Then choose blue or green tones combined with colourful accents, textured metallics or messing? The Paonazzo Calcatta, for example, combines beautifully as a kitchen worktop with taps in brushed or glossy messing. Other warm stones recommended by Beltrami are Verde Luano, Azul Celeste, Ice Jade Green and Sodalite Blue.

    Authenticity
    Our March edition of Imagicasa Magazine was all about the best that Belgium has to offer in architecture, design, art etc. You don't always have to look far when it comes to natural stone either. The demand for European natural stone (Belgian Bluestone or German Muschelkalk) is rising and also authentic types 'with a soul' (Burgundian Castle Valleys and the Irish Fossil Stone) are doing well.

    Playful forms
    Another trend is daring to play with shapes and textures on walls. This can be done with the Beltralinea 3D strips from Beltrami, for example. These are available in numerous finishes, various widths, lengths and thicknesses and can be placed both horizontally and vertically. The natural stone supplier also has a large, new range of tiles for a unique and original result.
    Round shapes and geometric patterns are also totally 'on trend’ this year. Curved-shaped marbles – such as the Verde Luano, Donatello or Arabescato Orobico – and natural stone placed in hexagon mosaic or herringbone motif will undoubtedly create a ‘wow’ effect in your kitchen, bathroom or living room. We're already excited to try it out!

    The best colour combinatios for 2018

    The best colour combinatios for 2018

    Spring is here and summer isn’t too far away. A perfect time to freshen up your interior or to try something new. In today’s blog we will tell you more about the best colour combinations for 2018.

    A first combination would be peach and black. There are many different shades of the versatile peach colour that is so on trend right now. If you want to give your interior a more formal look, try pairing peach with black. Aquamarine and electric blue go very well together too. By paring colour shades of the same family you get bold combinations and colour blocking in your interior creates dimension and contrast. A third combination is hot pink and turquoise. This pair might be too feminine for some, but it works wonders in brightening a space. Individually, they are happy colours, but brought together they infuse an upbeat energy.

    Hot pink is also perfect in combination with mint green. By combining an intense colour as pink with soft mint green you create a dramatic contrast while still feeling soft and inviting. Orange and pink are our next perfect pair. And charcoal and burnt orange go perfect together too, especially for lovers of modern interiors. It’s best used in spaces that need to be more ‘gender-neutral’, like bedrooms or guest rooms. The final colour combination trending at this moment is cream and soft pink. Which combination will you try?

    These are the 2019 interior trends

    These are the 2019 interior trends

    A new year brings with it the corresponding new interior trends. Rather than listing new fitness goals, another new year’s resolution may be to refresh your interior. And admit it, you are probably not the same person as so many years ago. Especially for you, Imagicasa therefore went looking for some nice ways to give your home a new look. And rest assured, you will not have to completely change your interior next year, these trends are also quite timeless!

    Marble
    Marble in all colours remains a trend in 2019. From the kitchen unit to the washbasin or a side table. The natural limestone looks simple, but still has a luxurious appearance due to the fossils and veins that make each piece of marble unique. The nice thing about marble is that over the years it only becomes more beautiful.

    Retro
    Retro is translated into your interior in the broad sense. Think of coloured walls, retro furniture, a patterned floor tile or everything in combination with each other. Inspirations from nature are a must in the retro interior of 2019. Round shapes, such as a mirror or pouffe, cannot be left out.

    Colour Variations
    In 2019, warm colours will make their (re-)appearance in our interiors. Especially colours with some pizazz in them such as mustard yellow, dark purple, velvet blue and gold. And don’t be afraid to combine them! The colours create a homely warm atmosphere and make a clear statement as a highlight in your interior. Accent walls or accent decorations are also must in this trend.

    Terrazzo Flooring
    Terrazzo floors that have been out of the picture for so long will be back in 2019. The strong, style-safe screed has a unique and authentic look. By mixing different materials, the floor can be adapted entirely to your taste.

    Art Gallery
    Art is gaining more and more popularity in interiors. Rules on art in your interior? They do not exist. What is important in this trend is that you position your paintings, photos or lithographs perfectly. When it comes to small works, it is best to position them in groups, for example. Make sure you check out our webshop soon for art that is perfect for this trend.
