As the temperatures rise and days grow longer, we’re finding inspiration in the fresh and vibrant energy of the summer season ahead! Our team has curated a list of this summer’s interior design trends and home decor, featuring pieces that will infuse warmth and brightness into your home. Dive in and discover our must-have items to transform your space this summer.
HERE’S WHAT WE’RE LOVING AT BASIL + TATE THIS SEASON…
1. Bold palettes & botanical prints
While pastels had their moment in the spring, summer is about embracing bold, vibrant color palettes. Think rich emerald greens, deep ocean blues, and sunny yellows. These hues can be introduced through accent walls, statement furniture pieces, or playful decor items like throw pillows and rugs.
Bring the outside indoors with bold color palettes and botanical prints and patterns. From tropical leaves to blooming florals, incorporating these vibrant themes can be done through wallpaper, upholstery, decor pieces and even kitchen tile backsplashes.
We’re particularly excited about statement wallpapers that feature oversized botanical motifs — instantly adding a fresh, lively vibe to any room or space. Pairing these prints with neutral furnishings allow the patterns to take center stage — or mix and match bold pieces for a more maximalist approach.

2. Natural textures & recycled materials
Eco-conscious design continues to grow in popularity, and this summer, sustainability and natural, recycled materials are taking the spotlight. Furniture and decor made from organic, earthy textures — think reclaimed wood tables, rattan and bamboo, or repurposed glass or metal — add a unique, story-filled charm and eclectic feel to any space. Plus, these natural textures and earthy tones perfectly complement the relaxed, airy summer aesthetic.

3. Indoor-outdoor living spaces
The summer season is the perfect time of year to blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living. This year, we love seeing so many designs that seamlessly integrate interior spaces with the outdoors. Large sliding doors or windows, indoor gardens, and furniture designed to work both indoors and out are all key elements of this trend.
To achieve this look, consider extending your living room into your patio or a three-season space with comfortable, weather-resistant furniture and plenty of greenery (real or faux!). This extension not only creates a cohesive flow, but also maximizes your living and entertaining space — allowing you to enjoy the best of both worlds.
