yellow furniture • The interiors world can’t get enough of this sunny shade – dopamine-boosting design never looked so good

summery paving • Take inspiration from the Med for outdoor flooring that feels sunny all year long

spherical feet • Forget tapered legs on furniture – round is the shape of things to come as these designs show

powder blue • Join the blue brigade – this ethereal pastel has made its way from the catwalk to the home and we are forever grateful

enduring style • B&B Italia has pioneered modern Italian furniture design since 1966 – but its latest collection feels as fresh as ever

good mood swings • Designers have turned indoor swings into a micro-trend, one that embraces joy and happiness and hangs wellness principles in the centre of your home

holiday at home • Four creatives reveal the travel destinations they’ve been inspired by – and how you can get the beauty of these places without stepping on a plane

sophisticated scallops • We’ve long been in love with this trim detail – and on window dressings its undulating edges make the views more marvellous

the green outdoors • You can lounge in the sun with a clean conscience thanks to innovations in alfresco furnishings – the next wave is built from sustainable materials

divide and conquer • Designer Linda Boronkay has fallen for the joy of screens, using them as hero pieces instead of just zoning devices, as she tells our editor Pip Rich

colour decoded • As with all successful schemes, there’s much more going on beneath the surface of this space than first appears–Livingetc’s colour expert Amy Moorea Wong reveals all
