How To Fill Your Home with Bright, Colourful Soft Furnishings

There’s a new interior design trend that we’re very excited about at Jennie Fynn. ‘Dopamine decor’ is a trend that’s all about vibrant colours, bold patterns and maximalism. Everything we love! It focuses on filling your home with things that bring you joy, releasing feel-good chemicals in your brain. Dopamine décor interiors tend to be brightly coloured, feature bold patterns and should express the personality and creativity of the inhabitants. 

So, if you’re bored of the neutral interiors that have been fashionable in recent years, this is a trend worth looking into. If you’re unsure about using large amounts of bold colours and patterns on the walls in your rooms, start small by incorporating them through accessories and soft furnishings such as cushions. Now is the perfect time to replace your grey and beige accessories with something more colourful and the hand-painted patterns we have on our website can bring happiness to your living spaces. 

The collection of floral and botanical fabrics we provide can take your home from mundane to somewhere you love spending time, bringing joy to your everyday routine. Here’s how you can fill your home with bright, colourful soft furnishings.

The Magic of Soft Furnishings

Soft furnishings are an important part of home decor. They are the quickest way to transform a room and can help you add a splash of colour. Whether it’s cushions, blinds, curtains or throws, they add texture, colour and personality to your space, making it feel welcoming and lived-in. It's not just about aesthetics either, these elements also improve comfort and create a cosy environment. 

Why Go Bright and Colourful?

If you’re wondering why you should choose bright and colourful fabrics, here’s a few reasons; 

  • Mood Booster - Embracing the dopamine decor trend can help boost your mood. Filling your home with colourful fabrics and floral patterns can make you feel good every day. It’s like having a dose of happiness every time you walk into a room.

  • Seasonal Freshness - With our botanical and floral upholstery fabric, you can bring the essence of spring and summer into your home. No matter the season, you can enjoy the cheerfulness of blooming flowers and lush greenery.

  • Personal Touch - Using vibrant fabrics can add some personality to your living space. It’s about creating a home that reflects who you are, bright, bold and beautiful. This personal approach to interior design makes your home unique and ensures every space resonates with your style preferences, making every inch of space a reflection of you.

  • Visual Impact - Bright and colourful fabrics make a strong statement that can define the ambience of a room. They draw the eye, creating focal points and elevating the space aesthetically. This can be particularly useful in larger rooms with neutral walls and floors, where bursts of colour can add depth and interest.
