Now is the ideal time to delve into the cosy and transformative essence of The Cocoon Bloom trend.

Offering a harmonious blend of the vibrant floral hues of summer and the comforting warmth of autumn, this trend invites us to create serene spaces.

To help you fully embrace this enchanting look, we’ve reached out to some of our trusted friends in the interiors world to share their top styling tips.

Pick Your Blooming Colour

Choosing a single floral colour that resonates with you is the heart of the Cocoon Bloom trend.

At the forefront of this trend, our dusky pink of Flora’s Tale, with its earthy roots encourages us to cultivate spaces that offer both warmth and comfort.

Adding varying tonal shades of your chosen colour can help to enhance depth and intrigue in your space.

Looking for complementary tonal hues for Flora’s Tale? Consider our rich burgundy Lady Bug or our soft cream Peach Baby.

Using one or more of these colours to saturate your walls and ceiling, will help to create a striking focal point that captivates.

You could also extend your chosen colour onto woodwork such as skirting, doors and window frames by using our Eggshell No.17.

Get Funky with Furniture

When it comes to furniture, opting for handcrafted, solid wood pieces is the key to conjuring the earthy allure of the Cocoon Bloom trend.

Emily Hackett from Funky Chunky Furniture tells us “The use of natural materials helps create a warm, inviting atmosphere, aligning beautifully with the trend’s focus on comfort and connection to nature.

Think rustic dining tables, wooden coffee tables, and bedside tables like the Whitburn Bedside Table that effortlessly blend in with the floral tones”.

Each thoughtfully chosen piece will enrich your space, instilling a sense of cosiness and connection to the natural world.

Lay It All Out with Linen

Textiles and layering play a pivotal role in bringing the Cocoon Bloom vibe to life, adding just the right touch of snugness.

We asked Molly Freshwater, Creative Director and Co-Founder of Secret Linen Store how to incorporate the trend into textiles.

“It all starts with choosing the right fabrics and textures to make your space feel as snug as a well-loved jumper”.

“For a touch of romance (and a bit of flower power), vintage rose textile are the way to go.

They add a soft, floral charm that works a treat with natural textures like wood, wicker, and rattan—because who doesn’t love that indoor-outdoor connection?

And if you want to level up your layering game, vintage rose 100% linen mixed with cotton throws and cushions will keep things interesting without sacrificing cosiness.

Glow For It

Lighting is a crucial ingredient in establishing a cocooning atmosphere.

Incorporating warm pendant lights or softly glowing wall sconces can beautifully transform your space into a cosy sanctuary.

Tom Raffield, founder and designer, captures this essence perfectly: “Our nature-inspired lighting designs enhance the grounding effect of Cocoon Bloom, transforming spaces into a sanctuary of solace, with the flick of a switch.”

“The calming, natural wooden hues and textures of our handcrafted pendants, balanced with energising layers of organic-inspired light and shadow work in harmony to create a cosy retreat”.

Embrace the Cocoon Bloom Trend

As we bring together these elements—choosing floral colours, opting for solid wooden furniture, layering soft linens, and incorporating warm lighting—we can truly embrace the Cocoon Bloom trend.

This transformation not only enhances the comfort and aesthetic of our spaces but also fosters a deep connection to the changing seasons.

With expert insights and creative styling advice at your fingertips, you have everything you need to cultivate an inviting, serene retreat this autumn.

Let the Cocoon Bloom trend inspire you to create not just a home, but a sanctuary filled with warmth, beauty, and a touch of nature’s magic!
