Nature can be a real inspiration when it comes to interiors.

This summer and autumn bring the outdoors in. With a few carefully placed additions you can create that raw, natural look and forest feel.

Here are a few tips on how to achieve this:
1. Less is more. Placing one nature inspired item creates more of an impact than turning your house into a jungle.
2. The less regular the better. Nature is haphazard and often unnplanned. Try to avoid right angles and geometric items.
3. Cherry, teak, maple and other light woods look great in the sun and age beautifully. Put such items on windowsills.
4. Fill your containers with natural items, such as plants, nuts and fruit, or conkers and pinecones later on in the year.
5.Sit down and enjoy your favourite drink along with a few snacks. RELAX. CHILL.
