The colour experts Pantone have announced the most up and coming colours for the new autumn/winter season. So for those people who love to be bang on trend with their interior design schemes, we've found several rugs that feature the new season's must have colours. 

Grenadine is a powerful, evocative, dynamic red and we have found just the right shade in our Gabbeh collection. This range is handmade in North Eastern India and this particular colour is just what you need to inject a pop of colour to your room.  



Autumn Maple is a quintessential autumn colour, introducing warmth into your colour scheme. This rug is also taken from our Gabbeh collection.

Neutral grey is described as the standard bearer of all neutrals and we have to agree. Many people don't appreciate just what a flexible and yes, neutral colour  grey is.  It works well in a minimalist, neutral interior scheme but will also provide the calm tone for colours such as navy blue.  It's one of our favourites which is why you can find a really wide collection of grey rugs. This one, is taken from our Ella Claire naturals collection.  These luxurious 100% Viscose pile rugs are available in a vast array of sizes.  

Marina is cool, fresh and bright.  This is the colour scheme for those who refuse to accept summer is over.  This rug is taken from our exclusive Vibrance collection and will ensure memories of the Med are never too far away - even in deepest winter.

Interior design trends for 2017

What's hot for the well-dressed home this spring/summer? Most wardrobes will have at least one fashionable piece for the season and similarly every home should have at least item of furniture that is bang on trend.

Greenery has been named the 2017 Pantone colour of the year and its meant to refresh and revitalise - it's certainly a lovely cheery shade that will brighten up any room. 

Patterns are also big this year.  Forget the usual rules of interior design when it comes to pattern feel free to mix and match.  A patterned rug, paisley cushions and zig zag curtains - you can go wild!  

Tropical prints have been seen on the international catwalks and interior stylists often take their lead from fashionistas. These bold designs are not to everyone's taste and the easiest way to go tropical if with a rug while keeping most other furniture items quite plain.

Navy is the new black when you are looking for the perfect accent colour. It works brilliantly with most other colours and unlike black it won't make a room feel too small.  

Finally, inventive geometrics that combine ancient culture with modern life are also a big theme for 2017. Simple lines and triangles are the key and our Moroccan style tribal rugs work the trend well.
