Is your favourite armchair looking a little worse for wear? Does your couch feel like it’s seen better days? Before you banish your beloved furniture to the rubbish dump, why not consider reupholstery!

 Here at Mary Interiors, we’re passionate about helping you create the perfect home, and that often means giving existing pieces a stylish refresh.

This year, upholstery is seeing exciting trends that cater to a variety of tastes. Here’s a look at what’s hot in 2024:

Nature’s Embrace:

Earthy tones and organic textures are taking centre stage. Think mossy greens, warm browns, and calming beiges. Upholstery featuring botanical prints or textures that resemble natural fibres like linen and wool will add a touch of tranquillity to your home.

Bold & Beautiful:

Don’t be afraid to make a statement! Jewel tones like emerald green and sapphire blue, along with rich, earthy hues like terracotta and mustard yellow, are very popular and add a touch of drama to furniture. Pair these bold colours with contrasting textures like velvet, leather, and boucle for a truly bold look.

Nostalgic Nod:

Vintage is making a comeback! Think curved silhouettes, button tufting, and rich velvets reminiscent of mid-century modern design are being used in modern homes everywhere. This trend adds a touch of timeless elegance to any room.

Tailored Chic:

On the other hand if vintage is not for you, then clean lines, geometric patterns, and a focus on comfort are also a hit and define the tailored look. Consider opting for upholstery with quilting or subtle piping details to add a touch of sophistication to furniture.

Sink-in Comfort:

Deep seating and plush cushions are all the rage this year. Upholstery that prioritises extra depth creates a truly inviting space where you can relax and unwind.

But why upholstery rather than just buying new furniture that fits all these trends?

Upholstery offers several advantages over buying entirely new furniture:

• Cost-Effective: Reupholstering a beloved piece can be cheaper than buying a whole new one, especially if it is a particularly unique or well-made piece.
• Sustainable Choice: It’s better for the environment to extend the life of your existing furniture rather than adding to landfill waste.
• Keeps Your Favourites: Sometimes our most comfortable furniture also holds sentimental value. Upholstery allows you to keep that piece you love while giving it a fresh, updated look.
• Endless Possibilities: With such a wide variety of fabrics and textures to choose from, upholstery allows you to completely customise your furniture to perfectly match your current style.
