Conservatories to be inspired by cityscapes?

 
18 February 2011

Individuals looking to improve the look of their conservatories may want to take inspiration from some of the world's best-known skylines.

This is because according to an article in the Express and Star, these cityscape views are becoming popular as a form of motivation when it comes to decorating.

Kirsten Bridge, founder of interiors company Lily & Lime, noted they have the ability to "capture the imagination" of individuals.

"Iconic skylines are being translated onto murals, artwork and soft furnishings. These combine brilliantly with high-gloss monochrome furniture for an edgy urban look," she added.

For those who are building a conservatory and are looking for ideas on how to transform it into a warm living room, this style could be appropriate.

Designer Sam Wingate observed people feel attached to buildings and so this is why prints of them have become fashionable.

It comes after Hannah Barnes of Hannah Barnes Designs said fresh colours are set to a big trend in 2011.
