Summer mood in the flat - 5 ideas for holiday arrangements

Summer is a special time, associated with joy, carefree and relaxation. It is worth bringing this summer mood into your home as well, creating a cosy, chilled-out atmosphere. Discover a few simple ways to change your home so that you can enjoy the summer vibe, not only on holiday! 

1. Natural materials
   Rattan furniture is not only a solution for the terrace! The subtle design of the rattan chairs or coffee table will bring some lightness to the living room. Wicker accessories such as trinket baskets, pot holders or even smaller furniture are synonymous with summer. Textiles made from natural materials are also worth considering - heavy curtains, bedspreads or bedding can be swapped for those made from airy linen or cotton.
   
   
2. Plants
   Potted plants are the perfect way to have a summer jungle at home. Palms, succulents or lavender will certainly make you relax after a hard day and remind you of your last holiday! If you prefer a less demanding solution (potted plants are beautiful, but they can take some time to care for), make sure you have fresh flowers in vases. Bouquets created during summer walks near meadows, as well as arrangements of sunflowers, peonies, lilies, roses, carnations, zinnias or dahlias will all work well.

3. Fragrances
   If the scent of flowers in vases isn't enough (or you rely on potted plants), it's worth taking care of the summer aroma in your home. Scented candles, incense sticks and diffusers with delicate citrus, floral or marine notes would be a good choice.
   
   
4. Souvenirs from holiday trips
   Trinkets bought during summer trips can be elegant additions to your home. Interestingly arranged maps, original photos, handicrafts - such items will give your interior an individual character and remind you of a pleasant holiday time. 
   
   
5. Colours
   Summer is associated with bright, vivid colours that add energy and lift the mood. Yellow, orange, green, pink and blue are colours that will bring a breath of summer freshness into your interior. Use them in interesting accessories, cushions, curtains, carpets, bedding, vases or crockery. A small touch is all it takes to give a room a new character.

Do you want the holiday energy to stay in your home for longer? If you're planning renovation and construction work, consider using vibrant, juicy colours on larger surfaces! In the Architype range, you'll find decors to create durable, long-lasting kitchen countertops and islands, stairs, window sills or wall cladding. 

However, if you prefer more subdued colours and at the same time want the possibility of decorating your flat without worrying about a visual mishmash, we recommend using neutral solutions. Furniture, floors and walls in white, beige, grey or black will be the perfect background for a variety of accessories - not only summer, but also those associated with other seasons or holidays. Whether you want to decorate your living room with Halloween pumpkins, field flowers or Christmas garland, you are guaranteed a harmonious and classy look.

Implementing the above tips is easy, and the results will certainly surprise you! Bring a piece of the holidays into your home and enjoy them even when summer is over or the weather is a bit less sunny.
