Africa and NATURE-INSPIRED DESIGNS

I am excited to see that the term “local” is finally receiving the attention and celebration it deserves. The concern for green living is being embraced by local designers choosing locally sourced material that is environmentally friendly. Find out what is trending this year on page 16 and we take this discussion further on page 96 on how the idea of 2020 vision is expressed in an African context. In this issue we bring you what is trending when it comes to your interior spaces. Starting with kitchens on page 42, functionality remains key while allowing the kitchen to merge seamlessly with the living room. Moving on to bathrooms on page 48 we see how sustainability in design is a necessity, as is functionality that is in sync with the…

Design and décor TRENDS FOR 2020

Silars Hlungwani, managing director of Chivalry Designs, talks about humanity’s innate need to connect with nature A new year means a fresh start, and is the perfect time to revamp your home. If you’re trying to figure out what to do with your home next year, here are a few trends we believe will make their way into homes in 2020. NEUTRALS COLOURS Neutrals come in pretty classic and serene shades; shades of grey and beige. Neutrals are not super-busy, and therefore are not heavy on the eye. Our prediction for 2020 sees warm neutrals making their way in, while cool neutrals fade into the background. The reason for this is that in a world where everything is becoming more and more sophisticated, homes are increasingly becoming a space for…

Design and décor TRENDS FOR 2020

“As considered as this home may be, there are still a few elements that manage to surprise.” While the need for a house filled with natural light and a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience may have served as the catalyst for this build, it’s the mix of textures and personal touches that really make it feel like home. “A home is something that feels intimate,” says the owner. “And what makes it intimate are the personal touches that one puts in a house, such as their choice of décor. It’s a place that one feels personally attached to and at peace in.” For the owner, a feeling of peace is felt even before she sets foot through her front door thanks to the inclusion of a stunning koi pond that runs…

Making it MODERN

Nestled in the eastern suburbs of Johannesburg, this recently renovated home was designed for family living comprising a spacious open layout, communal living areas and entertainment spaces. “The design of the home is very open-plan, which is exactly what we wanted. We love that the living areas all flow into each other. The open-plan bar-and-patio space that overlooks the pool and garden is perfect for us to enjoy our weekends with family and friends. And, when the sun goes down, the home cinema is the ideal spot to bring the family together to relax and enjoy an awesome movie experience.” For the finishes of the interiors, the owners wanted to keep it natural and neutral. “There are many natural elements we tried to incorporate: the wooden floors and wooden ceilings,…

Making it MODERN

NATURAL innovation

The kitchen is central to everyday modern life, and for this reason it needs to offer more than just cooking functionality – it should be as inviting and as comfortable as the living and dining areas that surround it. For these reasons, the current décor trends will continue to find direct translation in kitchen spaces, allowing the kitchen to merge seamlessly with the living environment. CONSIDERED CRAFTSMANSHIP As far as look and feel are concerned, 2020 will bring even more texture, natural materials and cosy, cocoon-like colours to the kitchen. Heidi Arenstein of Future Classics says, “Kitchens are becoming more and more focal as a living space, rather than just an eating or cooking space. Kitchen elements are going to look increasingly like furniture. Appliances will, of course, be present…

Inspired INTERIORS

The general trend for home owners is to create homes and spaces that offer easy living but remain fashionable and on-trend. “According to Italian design architect Armando Ferriani, the research and development in new materials, textures, finishes, lots of mirrors, glass and the mixing up of colours are the main differences in the 2020 trends when compared to the past years,” says Anthea Adam of Diva Cucine Italian Kitchens and Lifestyle Furniture Johannesburg. Louise Vorster, the @home trend specialist and product developer, highlights what you can look forward to in 2020: “The biggest trend for furniture and fabric will be raw sophistication, elevated natural materials such as wood, geological minerals, marble, forged bronze metals, cane, rattan, shagreen and organic colour, functional furniture as an art form, beautiful lines, minimal styling,…

UPDATE YOUR HOME WITH THE TRENDIEST FABRIC AND FURNITURE

The outdoor trends for 2020 range from green consciousness and easy-to-maintain to creating ideal living spaces. But ultimately the theme that runs throughout is to establish an exterior space that affords you easy living at its finest. POOLS When it comes to pools, “Green consciousness must be the trend in the very near future, and with it, an awareness of how we use our water,” explains David Roberts, network partner at EcoPools International and owner of EcoPools Gauteng. “Our company empowers people to participate in treading lightly on the planet by creating wetlands in their gardens, cleaning their pool water, grey water and rain water with our biological systems.” Turning your pool into an EcoPool will invite nature into your backyard and swimming pools can also be converted into massive…

South Africa’s GOT TALENT

GEMMA ORKIN Ceramicist Gemma Orkin has been a ceramicist for 25 years. Following her completion of a degree in fine art and training in ceramics under Barbara Jackson, she taught ceramics for 10 years. Orkin is inspired by the beauty of nature which seems “so effortless, present and quiet”. Her whimsical creations are available to purchase both locally and internationally. All of my ceramics are handmade and hand-painted by me. I use no moulds, wheels – just my hands. My work is high-fired stoneware, food-safe and dishwasher-safe. I fell in love with the creamy glossiness of old ceramics when I was in my early 20s. I have a major in print making, and ceramics gives the same, if not more, of a thrill. It takes weeks to put a piece…

Smarter, SAFER, SECURE

Our experts in the audio and security solutions spaces say that consumers will be reaping the rewards of newer smarter systems in 2020, systems that work with your mobile phones and personal assistants for more control than ever. TURNKEY SOLUTIONS Clint Jones is the marketing and product manager at Yale SA. He says they are keeping an eye on two big trends for 2020. Firstly, consumers are upgrading and replacing “door furniture” – door handles and security fittings – “not only for aesthetics, but for added security. We have a range of stainless steel handles that are ideal for first fitment or replacement”. He says, “We also see a trend in smart home technology where ‘personal assistants’ like Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa are starting to become more integrated into…

KEEP IT comfortable

Temperature control options for the home have evolved substantially over the decades with more industry leaders looking for ways to help home owners create and regulate the ideal interior climate. TURN UP THE HEAT When it comes to fireplaces, Jared Baker, a sales consultant at Home Fires, suggests that the most popular trends for 2020 will remain freestanding closed-combustion units and drop-in flueless gas fireplaces. Malcolm Sims, managing director of Infiniti Fires, agrees and explains why closed-combustion wood stoves are growing in popularity. “Whether burning gas or wood in these newer styles of fireplace, you have already cut your fuel consumption by 80%, lowered your carbon footprint and reduced your home’s heating costs.” In terms of fireplace designs, Fernando Ramos, CEO of Fire and Gas Lifestyles, explains: “Interior design trends…

KEEP IT comfortable

Flooring, staircases and balustrades are all defining elements of a home. If you’re upgrading or installing these new features into your home, here’s the latest round-up of trends to consider. FINE FLOORS Laminate and wooden flooring have dominated the market for a long time. For some it’s the charming and warm appeal, while for others it’s the aesthetic beauty of the natural or look-alike product. According to Hanél Appleby of Lalegno: “Natural Oak flooring continues to be the most popular choice for the discerning eye; it’s the perfect combination of subtle and sublime: subtle in its beautiful natural colour, with beautiful light shades of freshly sawn oak; and sublime, due to the matte wear layer offering a protective varnish, which guarantees very easy maintenance.” When it comes to the latest…

STORYTELLING through art

African-inspired spaces and décor will remain a prominent trend in 2020 with emphasis on bold colours, prints, patterns and textures. Patterns and prints play an essential role in the vibrancy and energy of a space. They contribute to the visual look and feel in providing an individual aesthetic that speaks to the occupants of the space. Patterns and prints from an African perspective contribute beautifully to the cultural appreciation and celebration of a space; they honour the pride and joy of culture in a colourful and vibrant way. They represent who we are. We connect to them visually, emotionally and spiritually as they speak to us individually, and it is that connection that informs how we use them in our living spaces. I also feel the trend will take a…
