Living Room Refresh
Whether your living room is centrally located in an open plan kitchen, living, dining space, or tucked away in a quieter position in your home, it’s the space for relaxation and unwinding — so a refresh in here will go a long way. Start by giving your living room a good deep clean and declutter, including windows and window furnishing. This in itself will transform your space.
As you do this, decide which furniture and home decor pieces have outstayed their welcome and could do with an update.
For a smaller refresh, you might invest in a new rug or coffee table, or for a larger transformation, treat yourself to a well-deserved new sofa. When deciding which pieces to update, consider what will have the biggest impact on your use of the space and choose home decor pieces that will maximise both comfort and aesthetics. We’ve refreshed this space with home furnishings from Castlery Furniture. Castlery craft furniture that is timeless, using the highest quality raw materials. We’ve paired the Jonathan Sofa in Creamy White with the soft Lilou Jute Area Rug and the Vincent Coffee Table Set in Oak. Castlery offers free fabric swatches so you can check any colours to ensure they’re a good match, plus have a 14-day return policy and warranty so you can try your new sofa at home with no risk!

Create A Time-Out Zone
Creating a quiet, calming space in the corner of a room, is the ultimate addition to promote self-care and time out in the New Year. Whether it’s for reading or scrolling on your phone, it’s an easy way to elevate a space and can be integrated into a bedroom, living room or the corner of your home office. To create your cosy nook, choose a spot that
benefits from natural light, add a beautiful, comfortable armchair and side table, and you’re set.
Here we used the Castlery Amber Swivel Chair in Smoke Grey. The Amber Swivel Chair is perfectly proportioned — it’s compact enough to fit into modest spaces, yet large enough that it has the comfort of an armchair. A quiet zone is the perfect way to create a new year routine centred around self care and will quickly become your go-to spot for a morning coffee.

Office Refresh
Want to maximise productivity and smash your New Year goals from day 1? An office declutter + refresh is just the ticket! Start by sorting through any paperwork and giving your space a thorough clean. Be ruthless and remove any items that really aren’t serving the space or productivity. Then upgrade any home decor that’s tired and add some greenery with a potted plant. We upgraded our office chair for the Castlery Levi Mid Back Office Chair. The seat is wide and comfortable, and PVC leather upholstery is soft and easy to wipe.

New Lighting
If there’s one simple switch that completely transforms the mood in a space or home, it’s lighting. Whether it’s a table lamp or a taller floor lamp — a new light will create an ambience by night, whilst also adding to your home decor and space by day. Choose lighting to complement your other furniture + set a calming tone for your space. We added the Castlery Cedric Table Lamp to our space, which has an organic shape and minimal design, and white glass that diffuses light to create a no-glare, soft glow. Adding no-glare lighting to any space will create a warm, layered look and make spaces feel inviting at night.
Add A Side Table
Adding a side table is a quick and easy way to add valuable storage and refresh any space. Whether it’s a new bedside table for your bedroom, or a side table to sit by your favourite chair or to add storage beside the bath — consider whether you need additional storage underneath or just a simple tabletop to sit your coffee cup and some home decor pieces.

Open side tables are the most flexible of side table options as their light, open design, makes them easy to manoeuvre and reposition in your space — to cater to where you need them. They can also be tucked away when not in use making them super-functional! Here we used the Vincent Coffee Table Set in Oak, which is a set of two Solid Oak Wood tables, that can be styled or nested to sit together or used separately.
