Arteriors: First Impressions

This season, global luxury brand Arteriors presents a range of styling options to transform entrances into statements of elegance. From lighting to sculptured objects and impactful mirrors, these are the perfect additions to create memorable hallways for guests.

Premium lighting fixtures can create a warm, inviting atmosphere that encourages exploration. Consider the height of your space when choosing fixtures. For low ceilings, incorporating elongated scones are a great choice, while high ceilings can benefit from low placed table lamps.

Mirrors are not just functional, they’re a statement piece that can further enhance and expand a hallway. Opulent, oversized options ensure that your entryway reflects both light and style, acting as an intriguing conversation piece.

Incorporate sculptural elements to add a captivating artistic touch. Arteriors’ range, crafted with meticulous attention to detail from natural materials, can serve as an eye-catching focal point or opt for a more subtle option to complement your decor, infusing the space with personality and grace.

To finish the look, breathe life into your hallway with planters and flowers. These natural accents not only bring a refreshing vibrancy but also contribute to a serene and welcoming environment.

At Arteriors, we aim to beautify any space, blending interiors with art to create a harmonious atmosphere.

Collaboration with Industry Visionaries

CECOCECO is also proud to collaborate with leading design firms Gensler and Sheppard Robson to enhance the show’s sensory appeal. At the Design Talks lounge, Gensler has incorporated CECOCECO’s ArtMorph into a breathtaking feature wall under the theme “Awaken.” This wall, adorned with a cloud and blue sky design, is enhanced by light effects simulating sunrise and sunset, adding depth to discussions on modern workspace evolution.

Meanwhile, Sheppard Robson has reimagined the show’s entrance with ArtMorph Voyager, crafting a multi-sensory gateway that blends colors, shapes, and textures to ignite visitors’ imaginations from the moment they arrive.

Real-World Applications of ArtMorph

CECOCECO’s innovative ArtMorph technology has been successfully implemented in various real-world settings, exemplifying its versatility and impact. A notable example is the G&D Executive Briefing Center Project in Houston, Texas. In this project, CECOCECO collaborated with G&D to install an ArtMorph wall in the lobby, enhancing the visual appeal and creating a memorable first impression for visitors. The design was inspired by Texas Limestone, with a 3D texture applied to the wall’s faceplate, mirroring the authentic look and feel of stone. This installation not only boosts the visual appeal but also creates a dynamic interplay between the digital content and the physical space, embodying both companies’ commitment to quality and seamlessly blending aesthetics with functionality.

These real-world applications showcase the transformative potential of ArtMorph in reimagining spaces to inspire and delight.

A Vision for the Future

“It’s an honor to collaborate with Gensler and Sheppard Robson to create an innovative experience for the Workspace Design Show 2025,” says Henry, Product Director of CECOCECO. “Through these partnerships, we aim to push the boundaries of workspace innovation, merging artistic expression with cutting-edge technology. We look forward to sharing this journey with all attendees.”

One of Arteriors' aims is to create well-balanced and harmonious environments through our meticulously curated range of products. Selecting the right shapes and pieces that are both outstanding and complementary is essential when achieving a cohesive aesthetic, particularly with mirrors.

This season, Arteriors champions the move away from harsh angles, embracing the soft allure of curves. By choosing mirrors with gentle, rounded shapes, you can cultivate a more inviting and fluid atmosphere in your home.

The global brand’s AW24 collection features a variety of round and arch-top mirrors that seamlessly introduce these elegant curves into any space.

Creating a functional, comfortable, yet stylish space hinges on thoughtful composition. Consider the layout of any space – bare walls or unoccupied floor spaces can be transformed by a strategically placed leaner mirror to reflect existing furniture, completing the look and feel of your space while adding depth and dimension. The reflections created will also enhance light and create a sense of spaciousness, making your interiors feel more expansive and inviting, ideal for the colder months.

Explore Arteriors to create sophisticated yet striking vignettes in any space with our luxurious range.

The arrival of autumn heralds the ideal time to explore Arteriors' latest AW24 collection, where lighting transcends functionality to becomes the centrepiece of any room. Renowned for seamlessly blending craftsmanship with innovation, the luxury brand introduces a range of lighting that glows from within, infusing warmth and style to any environment. More than just illumination, these statement pieces are designed to define spaces, create focal points, and transform the ambiance of a room. Featuring a dynamic combination of natural materials and textures, this collection is crafted to capture attention and elevate interiors throughout the UK.

Refined Reflections

Table lamps offer a unique opportunity to experiment with material contrasts, especially given their prominent placement at eye level within the home. The Chanell table lamp is a masterclass of this approach, where the gleam of metallic finishes meets the timeless elegance of marble. Its tapered brass shade not only reflects light but also diffuses it, casting a glow that transforms any space. This interplay between materials makes the Chanell a versatile piece, seamlessly enhancing contemporary and classic interiors.

Natural Light

Pendant lighting offers an unparalleled opportunity to showcase innovative crafting techniques, becoming a focal point in any room. The Large Indi Chandelier draws inspiration from the rugged beauty of nature, merging traditional motifs with eye-catching, unconventional design. Its expansive dimensions command attention but its intricate craftsmanship is what sets it apart. Indi is composed of a white iron foundation encased in matching white coconut wood, intricately carved to mimic the silhouette of a cactus. Each arm is adorned with clusters of coconut shells which create captivating shadow patterns, adding depth and drama to any interior.

Shapes and Shadows

Floor lamps provide a playful canvas for exploring shapes and forms, thanks to their elongated structure. The Elvis table lamp illustrates how industrial elements can be reimagined to create visual intrigue. The lamp’s gear-like structure serves as both a bold anchor and a source of compelling shadows, adding depth and dimension to your space. The lamp balances impactful geometry with a soft, diffused glow bringing spaces to life with texture, contrast, and character.

Four distinct product ranges, each with its own design ethos, form the new 300 strong collection launch at Arteriors. Spanning across furniture, lighting, accessory and wall décor designs which seamlessly merge the boundaries of art and interiors. Combining inspiration sourced as much from the natural world as from the history of art and architecture, items are designed to reinterpret classic forms for a modern, luxury clientele.

Refined Geometry: A selection of products which borrow inspiration in shape from Classical architecture, with sweeping curves and arches, and triangular detailing reminiscent of temple tympanums. Use of materials including sumptuously-smooth leather and elaborately detailed wood veneers fashions a mid-century look which is proving timeless.

Deep Luxe: Luxury in its truest form is presented through plush materials and extravagant, yet understated details which take inspiration from sophisticated European interiors. Rich velvet textures, subtle golden detailing on furniture and accessories, and magnificent statement lighting all bestow elegance.

Material Contrasts: Designs selected to sit beautifully as pieces of art in their own right create spectacular contradictions when placed together. Mixed materials form a juxtaposition of the man-made and natural, with finely machined metals, imperfect natural woods, high-sheen resins and organic ceramics.

Artisanal Modern: Timeless design with a polished twist is central to this collection. Expressive detailing and thoughtful shapes bring a fresh perspective to designs inspired by the early 20th century – traditional winged-back armchairs, art-deco inspired desks, and opulent chandeliers recall a familiar yet innovative aesthetic, each design combining artisanal and traditional techniques.

Highlights from the collection presented within Arteriors’ new showroom at Chelsea Harbour’s Design Centre.

For 35 years, Arteriors have been proud to work with artisan craftsmen from across the globe to create the highest quality furniture, lighting, wall décor and accessories.

To cater for our extensive and always growing network of interior design clientele, each season we cherry pick pieces of inspiration from around the world, curating product collections tailored to a wide range of design led interiors.

For the past few seasons, we’ve taken direct inspiration from a range of global destinations to produce statement pieces that combine unique location-specific elements with our signature aesthetic.

Berlin Bauhaus

An architectural movement that proceeded to inspire art and interior design for generations, Bauhaus combines contemporary geometric shaping with unique materials. Material of choice for this collection is luxurious leather. This is seen across an assortment of upholstered furniture, as accent detailing on accessories, and as part of lighting designs. A variety of finishes and forms creates distinctive, design-led products that showcase the juxtaposition of using a material ordinarily associated with a more traditional aesthetic within sculpted and soft designs.

Bel Air Luxe, & Monaco Glamour

Collections that imbue luxury in the traditional sense of the word are inspired by Monaco and Bel Air. Both exude opulence and grandeur with highlight features such as sumptuous velvet seating and rich mahogany furniture with extravagant chandeliers to bring to life this vision of luxury.

Napili Naturals

Inspired by a true tropical paradise and timed to launch with the approach of the summer season, this collection sings with the use of natural rattan and raffia, and elegant use of lighter hues are reminiscent of such coastal destinations. We’ve strived to be innovative with material choices, incorporating open linen weaves, coconut shells and wooden beading within our decorative accessories.

Shibuya Modern

The beauty of minimalism is redefined in a collection influenced by Shibuya. Striking, modern shapes and a muted tonal colour scheme are juxtaposed by a selection of woods and ceramics that break up an otherwise monochrome palette. The highlight product from this range that most imbues a sense of Tokyo’s architecture and cultural influences is the Stella cocktail cabinet. With a silhouette reminiscent of a Japanese kimono, fashioned from panels of oyster oak, epitomising the aesthetic of this distinctive collection.

Montreal Fusion

A combination of traditional European influences appear to jostle with a contemporary aesthetic in our product range inspired by Montreal. The charm of this city is this combination of centuries-old architecture with elements of contemporary flair, recreated in product design through a mix of finishes including wood, blackened iron, and pale ivory.

Through decades of meticulous research, and by working alongside skilled craftsmen from around the globe, we’re continuously inspired to experiment with aesthetics, materials and techniques. A selection of location-inspired pieces are available in our Chelsea showroom, and form part of our Spring collection.

Each of the new collections builds on Sans Souci’s central design concept – finding harmony in contrasting ideas and aesthetics. This is the brand’s response to the most pressing questions the interior design industry is facing. It is focused on embracing the contrasts and equilibrium between different perspectives. The space between luxury and responsibility to the planet, between craftsmanship and sophisticated technologies, between classical design and contemporary ideas.

Martin Chab, Founder and CEO of Sans Souci commented: “Our new direction and collections are testament to our commitment to design and innovation. They show that we are not afraid to combine diverse elements and ideas to create truly captivating pieces. We’re delighted to launch our 15 collections in Milan at one of the biggest design celebrations in the calendar – Fuorisalone and Euroluce. It will be exciting to get feedback from our partners and the wider industry, but this is just the beginning as we continue to grow our brand and portfolio.”

Sans Souci’s exhibition ‘The Harmony of Contrast’ will be showing this April at 2023 Design Week in Milan. One of the highlights will be HARK, an immersive exhibit showcasing Sans Souci’s bold designs and cutting-edge lighting technologies. The multimedia piece features exquisite crystal cuboids that respond to the audio around them, emitting different ambience depending on the tone of sound. A design experience for all your senses as it shows the contrasts between cool and warm, darkness and light, silence and sound.

The exhibition ‘The Harmony of Contrast’ is part of Fuorisalone and will be displayed at gallery Mimmo Scognamiglio Artecontemporanea, Via Goito 7, Milan, from 17 to 23 April. Sans Souci’s new portfolio of collections will be showing at Euroluce at Fiera Rho, Milan, P11.250, from 18 to 23 April.

Biophilia can be defined as an inherent human desire to connect with the natural world and elements of Arteriors' interior décor encourage this. Biophilic design isn’t just trendy from an aesthetic perspective – surrounding ourselves with nature has additional benefits elevating our mood and creating a holistic environment.

In residential design, a biophilic environment can encourage relaxation and a separation from bustling outside life. In an office space, benefits include increased productivity and creativity. In both instances, including elements of nature into the design of a room boosts overall physical and mental health.

Natural materials are the obvious addition and just one of the ways we can ensure we are benefitting from mother nature’s touch. Materials such as rattan, wicker, and various woods are great additions and can be used in furniture, lighting and accessory design. Season upon season we’ve seen more brands offering designs that integrate natural weaves and raffias, making it easier for designers and their clientele to create a grounded, organic décor scheme.

The positive influence on people is paired with the sustainable credentials of using these materials. Inherently biodegradable and regenerative, the resulting products are crafted with the future in mind.

Striving to further our connection with nature, our design team has endeavoured to include additional materials such as corn husk, coconut shell and abaca fibres that give a varied aesthetic but provide the same benefits. We’ve always wanted to ensure we honour the ingenuity of master artisans, where skills are passed down from generation to generation – particularly in places such as Southeast Asia, where the incredible artistry has inspired our collection of natural materials where we’ve weaved in inventive details (pun intended). Combining contemporary form with rich texture and traditional craftsmanship evokes a warm, welcoming aesthetic.

Another key element to consider is the colours used in a space – neutral tones, and earthy hues are grounding and provide an effective canvas to incorporate additional elements of biophilic design. Pops of green are also proven to reduce heart rate and promote calm whether selected as a key colour in furniture choice or across a statement wall.

Final additions make a world of difference, with planters and hanging baskets, dried flowers and fresh posies quite literally adding an element of the living natural world. More than aesthetic, plants and flowers work like gentle air purifiers moderating temperature, humidity and levels of toxins present to create a more pleasant living environment.

Key to a positive outlook and beneficial to health in all senses of the word, it’s no wonder designers are keeping this as a priority for residential, commercial and hospitality design. Each season, we want to make sure we’re creating products that work with, not against the environment and encourage biophilic living.

Whilst the majority of Britain is working from home, it is more important than ever to create a bedroom that is serene and harmonious. Your bedroom is not only where you sleep but where you begin and end the day by reading, meditating or simply unwinding. We have put together this guide on how to create a relaxing and restful bedroom.

Tidy the area

When trying to establish the key elements to change or improve in your bedroom take some time to clear the room by removing items that you no longer want and ensure that everything is put away. This will help you see the room as a blank canvas and make gaps or missing items clear.

Colour

Select a colour that is the most calming for you. A neutral base palette, such as ivory or sand, will open up the space making it feel clean, light and bright. It will also give you maximum flexibility with your space. If you do not like neutral colours then consider muted colours such as sage green or duck egg blue. To give your bedroom a refined and sophisticated finish choose a fabric wallpaper to bring texture and warmth to the space.

Bed

Position your bed against a wall, with space either side, and select an upholstered headboard with piping or studs to add an element of detail. To recreate a 5-star hotel feel at home use a mattress topper and double up your duvet inside the covers for a sumptuous sleeping experience. For maximum comfort, invest in the best bedding you can afford with a high tread count. Add to your bed by selecting some decorative cushions with small scale patterns or textures with a cashmere throw at the end of the bed.

Furniture

It is important that you do not have too much furniture in your bedroom as this will make it feel cramped. Think carefully about what is important to you. If you have limited storage space then choose a beautiful chest of drawers or if you want a space to get ready at then choose a dressing table and chairs. Consider the furniture’s size and shape so that it fits within the proportions of the room. When accessorising your bedside table carefully select some key pieces, such as a jewellery dish and a candle, so that you do not clutter the space.

Scent

Your bedroom should aim to connect all your senses seamlessly to evoke the feelings and emotions you desire. By bringing scent into the bedroom you can set the tone and mood in your bedroom. You should consider picking a scent that is appropriate for the season: light and floral scents of the summer, deep autumnal and forest scents for autumn and spicy, festive scents for the winter.

Lighting

Lighting is important to create a calming ambience in your room. Having a dimmer switch on the main light in your bedroom will help to create softer lighting. If this is not possible, you can create a restful environment by turning off the main light and utilising reading lights on your bedside table for warmth and comfort.

Homeplay is proud to be one of only a handful of integrators in the UK to have been selected, trained and authorised to install Lutron’s brand-new premium Palladiom Wire-Free Shading System.

Designed with groundbreaking technology and whisper-quiet performance, they are installed without fascia, pocket, recess or wires, making them the perfect choice for a minimalist aesthetic.

Redefine the beauty of daylight control

Available as a wired or wire-free, battery-operated system these shades look beautiful from every angle, Palladiom shades are created for the most sophisticated homes.

The aluminum brackets are meticulously hand-finished and available in a variety of finishes that blend seamlessly into any architectural style.

Shading that elevates the beauty of your home

Enhance your space with a shading solution that showcases what's beyond the window pane. Occupying no more than 3 1/4" of vertical space, a single Palladiom shade can cover a 12 x 12 foot window - highlighting expansive views while delivering daylight control at scale.

Ultra-efficient battery management technology

The Palladiom Wire-Free Shading System runs on Active Energy Optimization, a battery management architecture designed to optimize the efficiency of traditional alkaline batteries to extend battery lifetime to an industry-leading three to five years with fewer batteries.

Palladiom bottom rail

To accentuate the minimalist aesthetic of the Palladiom Shading System, Lutron has created the inventive Palladiom Bottom Rail. The design uses a groundbreaking method of clamping onto the fabric – regardless of the fabric thickness – to ensure that the hembar will always sit perfectly flat and perpendicular to the fabric plane. The subtle curve along the hembar face matches the roll diameter at the top of the shade. When the shade is fully open, the hembar disappears into the negative space behind the shade itself.
