Noteworthy Nuances: Designer Details for Spring

Now at Saybrook Home, our showroom floor is bursting with fresh design ideas to inspire your own spring home refresh. But you don't need a complete overhaul to achieve a stylish and inviting space. Sometimes, the secret lies in the details – the little touches that elevate your décor and add layers of personality.

This season, we're showcasing four small design elements that pack a big punch!

Whimsical Textures: Ditch the ordinary and embrace the unexpected with throw pillows featuring playful textures. Picture a plush leather lumbar pillow next to one with a delicate taping, or a pillow playfully adorned with eyelash fringe. This unexpected mix adds a touch of whimsy and visual intrigue to your sofa, chair or bench.

Custom Wood Finishes: Wood furniture is a timeless classic, but using custom finishes opens up a whole new world of possiblities when it comes to design. Explore the unique beauty of natural grains, or add a pop of color with a modern stain. Custom finishes allow you to create pieces that seamlessly blend with your existing décor or become statement features themselves. Many of our vendors at Saybrook Home, have options to customize wood finishes. 

Burlwood Accents: For a touch of luxury and organic elegance, consider incorporating burlwood accents into your space. Burlwood, with its distinctive swirling patterns, adds a touch of natural drama to side tables, cabinets or even accessories. We are loving this pair of lamps, and an absolutely stunning round burlwood mirror on our showroom floor. 

Embrace the Natural World: Bring the outdoors in with the calming beauty of natural elements. A wood stump coffee table adds a rustic charm to your living room, while incorporating materials like rattan, sea glass, cork and other natural textures creates a sense of organic serenity. Spring means getting outside, but it's also a great opportunity to celebrate what we love about the great outdoors in all our indoor living spaces.

These are just a few ideas to get your creative juices flowing. Visit our showroom in Old Saybrook, Connecticut, and explore our curated selection of high-end furniture and home accessories.
