Natural materials, such as stone, wood and glass, dominate this style.  Natural elements,  represents a contemporary feeling in design and form, with natural materials in furniture and permanent fittings. It’s an exciting mix of wood, metal and leather (which is making a comeback, but in a new way). 14 Basket weave and other plaited details will be appearing on furniture. Expect to see pre-patinated surfaces on both wood and textiles, and a lot of washed linen ahead of next season, both on sofas and bedding. Natural colours will be prevalent. Cold shades of brown, in combination with granite, and with hints of leafy green in nature’s colour scheme. THE ESSENTIAL COSTA DEL SOL WEBSITE - www.simplymedia-group.com
