Now that winter is over, you're undoubtedly spending more time outside, taking advantage of the warm weather, lush vegetation, and natural beauty that spring and summer bring. You can also be seeking for décor ideas to brighten up your living space in preparation for the long summer days and relaxing nights ahead.
The good news is that transforming your home into a summer retreat doesn't have to be expensive. According to Sarah Barnard, an interior designer and proprietor of Sarah Barnard Design in Los Angeles, paying attention to even minor details may have a "quite profound effect" on the aesthetic of a space.
"Summer brings brighter, warmer days that encourage exercise, so we should assess our indoor activities as well," Barnard says. When designing for spring and summer, she suggests paying attention to sensory aspects such as sight, smell, and feel. "It's critical to choose materials that provide a visual link to the outside world with care."
