LEAFY LOOKS

Give your home some "green shoots" of design recovery


Although we may be in the grip of the coldest winter in over ten years and the green shoots of economic recovery still a distant prospect, the leaf pattern is springing up across many areas of interior design from wallpaper to cushions and blinds.

"It is perhaps symbolic of our desire for a simpler life and a need for a stronger connection with the natural world," says Sarah Quilliam, head of product design for Hillarys. "When times get tough it's goodbye to bling and too much opulence and a return to a more organic, holistic and nature-inspired feel in the home."
