Homeowners looking to add warmth to the home this winter should step away from the central heating thermostat and instead consider revamping their interior schemes, says eco paint brand Victory Colours.
And founder Victoria Yardley says choosing cosy colours can bring a warm feeling into any room.
The family-run business, which specialises in its own range of environmentally friendly paints, also stocks a range of wallpapers from independent design house Ohpopsi.
Victoria Yardley, Founder of Victory Colours, said: “Ohpopsi are renowned for their characterful designs in a range of bold hues. Get the colour and pattern just right, and it will have a cocooning impact on the space, which is ideal as temperatures dip.”
According to Victoria, the key to creating a cosy room is to choose a wallpaper that incorporates warm hues and a pattern that brings depth.
Ohpopsi’s Orb is a stunning geometric print bursting with overlapping circles. It is available in a range of colourways, including Fox, which brings together shades of brown and amber to naturally evoke a feeling of warmth.
It pairs beautifully with Victory Colours’ Conker and Coco Bean.
Another option is Twisted Geo in Stone. Packed with curves, there is a freedom to Twisted Geo that invites relaxation and comfort, offering the ultimate escape from the great outdoors.
Victoria added: “Wallpapers can be incredibly impactful when it comes to creating a cosy space where you just want to hunker down and relax in. Patterned papers, like Orb and Twisted Geo from Ohpopsi, are brilliant for making a room feel enveloped and cocooned, ideal for winter.”
Twisted Geo in Stone and Orb in Fox by Ohpopsi are available now from Victory Colours, with prices starting at £69 per roll.
