Get The Look: Neutral Retreat

by Alice Sisson

We've named our new AW18 look Neutral Retreat: the perfect combination of neutral palettes and wooden, rustic elements. This neutrally focused collection is not only soothing, but simple to bring to life.

Creating a beautiful, cosy look, the Neutral Retreat trend focuses on giving emphasis to statement pieces of furniture that add the main impact to your interior with texture and depth.

Make your home inviting with Olivia's specially picked pieces - perfect for snuggling up on a cold winters day.  

If your feeling more adventurous, set off the look by adding a dash of complementary colour, such as Sage Green. A warm and calming shade of green, which lends itself perfectly to the more antiqued pieces of this collection to create an organic, vintage farmhouse look.

If you are looking to give your neutral interior a more opulent feeling, a deep, rich colour would work perfectly. On trend and classic, navy blue works fantastically in contrast with light and airy stone shades. 

A neutral aesthetic can be tricky to master in any interior. Too much, and it can look drab and flat. Too little, and it can roam away from the neutral sanctuary you had in mind.

With this style, the key is to call upon textures, shades and tones to bring depth and contrast. Wood is a real focal point to this style. Whether it’s in the form of panelled walls, etched white wash, luxury parquet or shabby pine, wood is sure to bring warmth and an earthy texture to any room.
