Nice Things This Week

This week, we turn to Marie Antoinette and its cinematic splendour for interiors inspiration.
A heroine of excess and escapism, her world is as expressive as her wardrobe - indulgent, playful, and impossibly ornate. Think lacquered pastels, sugared almond hues, and gilded detailing, where every surface feels dressed for the occasion.
Bedrooms become confectionery dreams of silk drapery and powder-soft florals, while tablescapes are layered with porcelain, ribbons, and fruit. There’s a sense of theatricality in every corner.
Bring a touch of Versailles fantasy home with pieces that feel decadent, decorative, and just a little bit undone.

In 2026, let your interiors moodboard begin on screen. These five films are immersive worlds where colour, composition and object placement feel quietly intentional. Watch for painted walls that set the emotional temperature, fabrics that catch the light, and rooms styled with a restrained confidence: a few standout pieces, thoughtfully spaced, doing more than a crowded shelf ever could. There are motifs worth borrowing too - florals that feel modern, metals that read softly rather than shiny, and palettes that balance sweetness with edge. Consider each film a design reference point: part escapism, part study in how atmosphere is built.

The secret isn’t more lighting, it’s softer lighting, placed with intention, and switched on before the evening goes grey. Boutique hotels have a particular kind of magic. You walk in and everything feels calm. The sofa looks inviting. The corners are warm. Nobody is being blasted by a ceiling light. Even the air seems better lit. And then you get home and your living room is… fine. Technically. But it doesn’t have that low, flattering glow that makes you want to order olives and speak quietly. It’s either dim and a bit sad, or bright in a way that makes you feel like you should be cleaning. The good news is you don’t need to redesign your living room to get that boutique hotel feeling. You just need to borrow their lighting rules - the ones they’ve been quietly perfecting for years.

Light Like a Hotel

This month’s Colour Pairing brings together Olive & Chocolate – a grounded earthy green with earthy depth, and a rich, chocolate brown. Olive speaks of nature’s resilience, organic and enduring, while Chocolate brings warmth, indulgence and quiet sophistication. Together, they create a harmony that feels both rooted and refined. Think natural textures, soft leathers, and deep woven fabrics that invite touch and comfort. Whether in interiors, fashion, or everyday accents, this pairing offers balance – earthy calm with a decadent edge, grounding yet deeply inviting.

Pistachio green is the interior design trend that whispers luxury while feeling effortlessly fresh. Softer than emerald, more intriguing than sage, this versatile shade slips easily into home décor without demanding attention - yet always draws the eye. Pair this soothing colour palette with warm neutrals for calm, or with chrome and glass for a sharper mood. Whether as a statement vase, lamp, or linen accent, pistachio interiors bring quiet vitality to any room.

The Pistachio Edit

For vintage seller and content creator Sophia Barrese, home is a homage to mid-century shades and shapes. Her new home is a renovation, a work in progress, a place that’s slowly taking shape, with sunny corners and warm, mellow tones leading the way.
