79 A third trend to look out for is one to take us back in time. For that ultimate living- room experience, the glamour of the 70s will add new textures and rustic tones such as orange and brown with a contemporary twist. As a cheaper option to give your house that 70s feel without giving it a complete makeover, you can introduce patterned wallpapers and crochet accessories. Retro- piece furnishings can help finish off the look and even be paired with the velvets and soft luxury style furniture from the 80s for a real nostalgia feel. Spring 2020 will be about embracing the old with the new; classic furniture pieces and colours will be re-imagined and embellished with new materials to provide a sustainable and eco-friendly feel that has encapsulated the minds of people on a wider scale. www.willowandhall.co.uk
