The Hot List: Brighten up your space

It's not for the faint-hearted, but if minimal, neutral-looking interiors aren't your thing, then experiment with brilliantly bright, beautifully intricate, ethic-inspired prints.

1 Boho bedding

Kas Australia's new autumn/winter collection is infused with bohemian and folk-art influences, carefully combined with the brand's signature pops of bright, contrasting colours. The conspicuous yellow-and-berry Nyasha design is inspired by Russian folk art, and is to be found liberally splashed across a range of bed linens and cushion covers.

2 Bird on the wall

Interior 360 is now stocking wallpapers by the Sydney-based Signature Prints. Owned by husband and wife team David and Helen Lennie, Signature Prints has evolved from a niche, cottage-industry business into an international supplier of premium textiles, wallpaper, limited-edition art and luxury luggage. The company also owns the exclusive, worldwide commercial rights to the design library of Australian icon Florence Broadhurst. We love the Refresh collection of Broadhurst wallpapers, which features 24 designs in up to nine colourways, including this evocative Birds of Paradise motif.
