Spring Refresh, Designer Style

Simple Spring Home Refresh Ideas
As the seasons shift, so does the energy in our homes. Spring is the perfect time to lighten things up, bring in a breath of fresh air, and re-style your spaces with intention. The good news, is you don't always need to start from scratch. Here are five of our favorite spring styling ideas, each inspired by recent projects we’ve had the joy of designing.
1. Swap Out Your Textiles
Nothing transforms a room faster than updated pillows and bedding. In the bedroom, we replaced cozy winter layers with a lighter look—mixing crisp whites with soft blues and floral patterns. You might also consider breathable cottons, textured linens, and soft pastels.
2. Update Your Bathroom Details
Even the smallest space can benefit from a seasonal refresh. A new hand towel, a sleek soap dispenser, or a scented candle in a spring fragrance (think lavender, citrus, or eucalyptus) can elevate the everyday.
3. Style a Shelf with Seasonal Decor
Open shelving offers the perfect opportunity to rotate in new textures, tones, and objects. This spring, we brought in soft ceramic pieces, fresh greenery, and a few sculptural objects to style a kitchen shelf. Leave a little negative space to let each piece breathe—it creates a more curated, intentional look.
4. Lighten Up Your Office
Curtains can have a surprising impact on a space. In this home office, sheer panels let in natural light while floral curtains add a soft, balanced touch. A patterned rug brings in color and personality without overwhelming the room, creating a space that feels calm, open, and energizing.
5. Floral Touches
Fresh flowers are one of our favorite seasonal styling tricks. Whether it’s a bundle of peonies on the kitchen counter or a few flowering branches in a tall vase, flowers bring energy, color, and movement into your home.
