As the colder months approach, many of us look to update our home décor to create a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Interior design winter trends for 2023 are about creating warmth, seeking and providing tranquillity, and using minimalistic designs throughout the home.
In this article, we will explore how you can incorporate Innovus’ Spirit décors into your home design across the kitchen, lounge, and bedroom to transition from summer to winter seamlessly.
The adaptable nature of Minimalist Design

Minimalism is a design style that has gained popularity over the past few years. At its core, minimalism is about simplifying and paring down to the essentials. It’s a philosophy that values clarity, simplicity, and function over decoration and excess.
Minimalist spaces tend to be clean, uncluttered, and full of natural light. The focus is on creating an environment that promotes calmness and tranquillity, especially now during the colder months when we spend more time indoors. By adopting a minimalist approach to design, we can create spaces that are both functional and beautiful, allowing us to embrace the spirit of the winter season fully.
Envisioning minimalist design through Spirit’s innovation
The Spirit collection from Innovus includes five premium décors in the Woodgrain category: Amber, Aurora, Nevada, Kingswood, and Eclipse. Each décor has unique characteristics that make them perfect for creating a pleasant and amiable atmosphere in your home.
By incorporating these décors into your winter colour palette, you can create a sense of ease in shifting seasons, break the vibrant colour splash of summer, and transition to a quieter and more reflective tonal expression.
Hail Amber, full of grace
Amber is a light, airy décor perfect for bright open spaces. With its woodgrain pattern and light gold complexion, it creates a welcoming yet contemporary look and feel. Incorporating Amber into your kitchen design, for example, can create a bright and cheerful atmosphere, especially when combined with white or light-coloured cabinets and countertops.
Not to mention the inclusion of as much natural lighting and the addition of a few biophilic elements to complete the look.
Aurora’s Plush Tertiaries
Aurora, with its woodgrain pattern and faded grey colour, is perfect for enhancing the look and feel of modern urban spaces. In a lounge setting, Aurora can create a calming and relaxing environment, especially when combined with earthy tones such as brown and beige. Adding a plush grey sofa, some soft blankets and cushions, with a textured rug can enhance that cosy atmosphere you’re looking to create.
Nevada’s Statement Two-tone
Nevada, with its sleek pattern resembling oakwood, is rich in both texture and in its colour palette. When used in a bedroom, it can accentuate an enticing and congenial ambience, especially when combined with other darker shades such as our Shadow Blue Unicolour.
A wooden headboard, warm lighting, and soft, poofy bedding complete the look, creating a scene which yearns for reading with a cup of hot chocolate just before bedtime.
Eclipse – Emergent Innovation
Eclipse, inspired by the neutral colour palette of contemporary design, has a woodgrain pattern that bears the hallmark stencilling of ebony wood. This décor aims to enhance one’s sense of presence and sophistication, especially when combined with warm and exuberant colours such as red, orange, or green.
Adding a statement piece such as an upholstered headboard, plush and light-coloured bedding, and a mohair throw blanket can create not just a luxurious atmosphere but an inviting sense of warmth.
Kingswood – A Regal Ascent
With its rich, chocolatey brown colour palette, Kingswood is a splendid décor perfect for vibrant interiors. Incorporating Kingswood into your lounge design, for example, exudes warmth and comfort within a natural aesthetic. This is especially true when combined with complementary hues. Beige, light brown and grey cabinetry are accentuated when Kingswood sets the stage.
Adding a statement piece like a velvet sofa, a soft rug, and decorative pillows brings out the warmth and comfort one hopes to achieve during the colder months.
Balancing warmth, serenity and minimalism
When incorporating the Spirit décors into your home design, it is important to balance warmth, calmness, and minimalism. A statement or focal piece can add interest and personality to your space, but remember to keep it simple.
Innovus’ Spirit decors provide an excellent canvas from which to incorporate these elements into your home décor. With the right balance of warmth, calmness, and minimalism, your home can be transformed into a cosy and inviting oasis for the colder months ahead.
