Interior Design: Styling curved lines

A rising appetite for rounded furniture and details in home décor has certified curves as one of 2022’s key interior design trends. The resurgence of curves comes not only from a strong desire to soften and cosy-up our interior spaces, but a scientific human preference for curved objects.

We can’t deny our love for the aesthetic of contemporary clean lines. However, curves can effortlessly create familiarity and add playfulness to interiors compared with a sharp rectilinear design approach. Curved accents give something interesting for the eye to follow each day and can be introduced within home interiors in the following ways:

Curvy designed furniture

Incorporate stylish curved furniture in your living space. These curvy lounge chairs are designed with softness, an organic shape and a rounded seat for comfort in mind.

For those who appreciate the simpler things in life, this wooden coffee table has been crafted with highly skilled carpentry to create a beautifully rounded design. Inject curves in an elegant way by featuring exquisite dining chairs that subtly pay homage to curved lines.

Curved wall décor and accessories

Curved wall accessories are an excellent way to incorporate round shapes without the commitment of investing in lots of new furniture. Unique circular pieces such as this wall-hung modernist shelf can act as a practical platform whilst being an eye-catching addition to the home environment. This mirror's soothing and sophisticated round shape is refreshingly simple yet brings visual intrigue to spaces, making it as beautiful to look at as it is to look into.

Play around with curved line forms through home accessories. For example, Viv Lee’s clay ornaments draw influence from the human form, the shapes of her vessels echo the curves and lines of the body. 

Lighting

Curvilinear elements in interior design can also be added through soft lighting.

Pendants with sphere bulbs create a spectacular lighting effect whilst table lamps with distinct curves act as a stand-alone feature in the home space.
