The naturalist trend of Summer comes inside for Autumn. Inspired by the cosy comfort of a holiday lodge. Rich moody earth tones, soft neutral faux furs with plush textures, chunky knits and natural blended fabrics will be perfect for the cooler seasons.

 

Colour

This season the emphasis is on colour and creating a cosy, comforting scheme, olive green and soft grey toned blues combine with earthy terracotta tones and a splash of spicy mustard to add some relaxed warmth to your space.

Texture

The cooler months are the perfect time to layer up your home. We are seeing texture increasingly being used to add interest to rooms. A look that we are loving is layering up different textures in the same, or very similar colours. It’s perfect if you are big on neutrals and need to find different ways to decorate your rooms without using too many colours.

In a living room, cushions and blankets are an obvious way of doing this but in other rooms, try bringing in textures with plants (dried flowers are everywhere this year) prints and well curated knick knacks.

Shape

Nature’s presence in the home is a trend that repeats and repeats. This autumn, it is not simply the colours that are inspired by Mother Nature, but the form of the latest furniture and home accessories too. A rounded hallway console, curved sofa, organic wavy artwork or shapes in fabric.

Floral

Be brave and bold with beautiful colour influenced by flora and fauna. Floral is back with a modern update. Large and small, bold coloured, metallic and in the form of prints, ceilings, cushions, walls and couches. You can use dark floral upholstery, wallpapers or paintings to incorporate this trend.

Style tip – When mixing florals, make sure there’s a common colour on each item to tie them together.

Rhino is proud to be one of New Zealand’s Most Trusted Carpet brands.

The results of the latest Most Trusted Brands survey for New Zealand are out, and we’re thrilled to have secured a top slot.

Reader’s Digest commissioned Catalyst Market Research to survey New Zealanders’ opinions of a range of NZ brands. Our Rhino brand achieved a Highly Commended rating in the Carpet category.

Reader’s Digest Australasian editor-in-chief Louise Waterson says being a Trusted Brand top place getter is a great achievement, well deserving of acknowledgement. Consumers appreciate being able to turn to brands they trust, especially in challenging times.

“This is an unprecedented time in history right now with the COVID 19 situation and trust has never been more tested in our community. With the pandemic taking hold, consumers have turned to those trusted and familiar brands to protect themselves and their families,” she says.

The Trusted Brands survey (now in its 21st year) has grown to include 69 categories of products and services.

Catalyst Research surveyed a representative sample of 1,601 New Zealand adults, selected to reflect the demographics of the general population. They were tasked with completing an on-line questionnaire.

The range of categories included, for example: beds, tyres, carpet, paint, cleaning products, insurance, hair care, home-builders, jewellers, real estate, supermarkets, kindergartens and charities.
