Retreat
With a homely aesthetic, Retreat draws on a nostalgic mix of comfort and security. From sleeping to eating, and working to working out – most homes are becoming the interior hub for many busy, action-packed days. What was once a place for rest and relaxation now embodies a living environment of family, work and play.

Embrace the blurred balance.
As our home and work lives continue to blur, we should upgrade our spaces accordingly to become a hybrid of functionality. This offers the ultimate palette for flexible living.
Draw on nostalgia, comfort and security. And make way for textures that are naturally authentic, like stained timber and feature materials that are sourced sustainably.

Styling tip:
Use decorative items that have a personal meaning and are well-loved. Balance deeper hues with natural and authentic textures.
