Decorating trend: Havana Modern
A study area fit for Hemingway, that really cuts the mustard.
Colourful tiles and floral fabrics speak of long summer days with a dash of Cuban heat.
A patchwork of abstract patterns add zeal to the moody blues.
Wallpaper goes retro alongside a Sixties-inspired credenza clad in two-tone brass.
Blending bohemian style with folksy plates creates a laid-back kitchen to hang out in.
The pineapple print grows up when paired with midnight blue.
The curved headboard of this sculptural bed creates a cocooning hideaway.
An abstract mural and dusky velvet combine for a decadent place to soak away the day.
