With spring in the air, there’s a natural pull toward fresh starts and intentional refreshes. Lately, I’ve been drawn to a mood that feels both artful and refined, layered with quiet luxury and moments of contrast. It’s a design philosophy that’s shaping not only my projects but also the way I think about interiors as a whole—timeless yet unexpected, inviting yet elevated.

For this month’s design moodboard, I’m exploring a palette of warm whites, deep blacks, and crisp silvers, punctuated by hints of golden yellow and rich textures. It’s about balance—between light and shadow, softness and structure, restraint and indulgence.

What’s Defining My Moodboard Right Now

no. 1 Artful Intention

I’m seeing a shift toward interiors that feel more curated and collected over time—spaces that tell a story. Whether it’s a perfectly imperfect piece of vintage furniture or layered artwork alongside a well read stack of books, there’s an emphasis on making a home feel elevated yet lived in.

no. 2 Layered Details

A space feels rich and inviting when it has depth—think textural contrasts, patterned upholstery, sculptural lighting, and unexpected material pairings. This season, I’m loving the interplay of sleek marble with soft linen, the mix of antique brass with high-shine silver, and the way a bold pattern can ground a room in sophistication.

no 3. Hints of Golden Yellow

There’s something about a pop of golden yellow that feels like sunshine in a room—fresh, vibrant, and full of warmth. Whether it’s a statement vase, an abstract painting, or even a subtle thread in a patterned fabric, this color brings a sense of optimism that feels perfect for spring.

no 4. Silver Everything!

Move over brass—silver is having a moment. It’s cool, sleek, and undeniably chic, lending a modern edge to interiors. From polished nickel hardware to reflective metallic materials, silver tones feel fresh and timeless all at once.

no 5. Warm Whites & Black-and-White Contrast

Crisp white will always have a place in design, but warm whites feel especially inviting right now. Paired with deep, inky blacks or classic black-and-white patterns, they create a striking yet livable contrast that feels equal parts modern and classic.

no 6. Patterned Furniture as a Statement

Pattern is moving beyond just wallpaper and textiles—patterned furniture is making a statement. From checkerboard chairs to striped upholstery, these pieces add a sense of playfulness and personality that I can’t get enough of.

How to Bring the Mood Home

If you’re looking to refresh your home this season, take your cues from my current moodboard and try a few of the ideas at home!

• Introduce a bold patterned accent—a reupholstered chair, a rug, or even a statement tile.
  
• Layer in mixed metals to add depth—try silver julep cups as vase next to your warm brass fixtures.
  
• Play with black and white contrast for instant sophistication.
  
• Bring in golden yellow in small ways, like fresh florals, artwork, or a single accent pillow.
