Al fresco brought inside with Miller Homes

House buyers in the East Midlands are bringing the outdoors into their homes this year, according to stylists from leading housebuilder Miller Homes.

Increasing numbers of customers at Miller Homes’ dedicated Options Centre are choosing the natural look for their interior décor, with the help of the centre’s talented options advisors. They offer their expertise to new home owners on all aspects of decorating and have highlighted a distinct rise in demand for earthy tones and natural wood fittings in their new properties.

As home owners move away from carpeted interiors, practical hard-wearing wooden floors are making an entrance, often in lighter, more gentle toned woods such as oak and pine. Browns and olives are also being complemented with floral designs on furnishings, adding detail and focus to living rooms and dining rooms.

“The demand for natural tones appears to reflect the growing trend for al fresco dining and entertaining, with people wanting to bring elements of the outdoors inside,” commented Sarah Brentnall from Miller Homes’ Options Centre.

“With the country just emerging from a recession, many people are choosing to entertain at home, instead of going out, and are consequently choosing interior décor that produces both a relaxing atmosphere for the family and a stylish al fresco look for entertaining.”

Buyers of new homes at Miller’s developments across the East Midlands can use the bespoke styling service to create their perfect home before they move in. Miller Homes offers home buyers the opportunity to begin designing the interior of their property as soon as possible, meaning that customers can relax and enjoy their new homes as soon as they move in.

Sarah added: “We take great pride in creating dream homes for life for our customers. Although many people are currently opting for the natural look, we can cater for all tastes and enjoy the challenge that each new design brings.”
