Trend Home feature at Decorex Cape Town
DECOREX CAPE TOWN INSPIRES WITH @home TREND HOME FEATURE
Setting itself apart as a leading exhibition, Decorex Cape Town – sponsored by Plascon – showcases the latest #rhythmoflife décor trends in unique and inventive features, offering visitors the chance to engage with all the products through effective home-style simulations. The @home Trend Home presented by Decorex is one of the most innovative home-space features forming part of this enlightening exhibition, running at the Cape Town International Convention Centre from 27 April to 1 May.
For this particular home installation, Creative Director of Decorex, Anita Bloom and her inspired team have collaborated with leading suppliers, selecting on-trend pieces of designer furniture and décor pieces from the @home homeware store and @homelivingspace. Sugarplum Interiors will be designing the bathroom space while HH Joinery and Carpentry – in collaboration with Stone Henge -will bring the open-plan kitchen space to life, set to feature the latest colour range of stone from Caesarstone. The finishing touch on the @home Trend Home patio will be provided by Hertex Fabrics.
“Decorating a home can be quite an overwhelming experience,” explained Bloom. “It’s often difficult to imagine how a décor or furniture piece could work, or how to combine various elements without physically seeing them in the space. This year’s @home Trend Home will give visitors a really unique experience, incorporating some of our favourite trends in a gorgeous setting that will definitely leave individuals inspired.”
The 2018 @home Trend Home presented by Decorex will centre on the dominant Hygge trend, expressing pure simplicity. “The @home trend home is all about minimalism and really embraces the quality of life,” explained Bloom. “It’s a space that makes you feel like curling up on the couch with a good book.”
There will be large-scale wall art in the bedroom which is visually inspiring, creates a depth of space, and brings colour and life to the room. This is coupled with wooden room dividers which provide a really effective way to divide the living room area, making open-plan spaces feel cosier while giving an element of surprise to the home.
“We will bring in the natural element with indoor plants, as well as a variation of greenery and fresh flowers,” said Bloom. “This will be complemented by the Linear trend reflected in furniture pieces that show thin, black lines of steel furniture with a subtle wood finish.”
The home is coated in the Decorex colour of the year – Mature Pink – painted in the Plascon match, Pasta Primavera, with the edging in Beijing Moon framing the windows and doors. The installation will incorporate beautiful muted tones of grey, mixed with metallics and touches of black. This entire feature is an expression of the #rhythmoflife theme, mixing the soft pink hues with beautiful, muted minerals, hanging greenery and plants. Draped material from Hertex’s latest outdoor ranges of fabric enrich the patio, giving the outdoor area a warm, homely feel.
True to the Capetonian style, the @home Trend Home is open-plan living, merging the kitchen, dining area and living area, creating a much more multi-purpose home space better suited to serving the modern lifestyle. The installation showcases the best in surface design, functionality, innovation and pure inspiration.
“With Cape Town being the gem of South African cities, characterised by unbelievable mountain locations stretching across the beautiful turquoise seas of the peninsula – this sensational trend home reflects simple living, industrial elements and minimalist design so as not to overwhelm,” explained Bloom. “The layout of the home is contemporary with simple storage, pops of colour within a spacious layout. This eye-catching space merges the beautiful rooms through the open-plan layout. Despite the minimalism, the space is comfortable and cosy…a true homely interior.”
