Four trending styles for the season and how to use them in your home with Crate and Barrel’s holiday collection

This year, we’re trading flights and suitcases for home cooked meals and quality family time. And with festive traditions being all the more important – plus some of us feeling in need of some extra cheer – our focus has turned homeward in order to create a beautiful space for the holidays. Crate and Barrel’s 2020 Holiday Collection takes inspiration from four festive trends, each bringing a different feel and design style. So whether you want to embrace the power of hygge, or go all-out jewel tone, these are the ranges that keep you bang on trend:
Trend one: Nordic style
Putting a chic twist on festive styling, this trend is all about creating a calm and light atmosphere in the home.

Crate’s winter forest collection uses soft sage and light wood for an elegant, Scandinavian look. For a minimal look, use simple festive accents like these bottle brush trees to create a warm feel in the home.
Trend two: Jewel tones
Lively and daring, this trend harnesses jewel tones to create a vibrant, yet warm look. Use it to create a luxurious twist on traditional festive decorating.

At Crate and Barrel, their Modern holiday collection outed in entertaining, there’s tableware galore that – no matter how small the gathering – make a sparkling statement. For a dazzling centre piece, this blush mercury tree commands attention. Plus, the metallic shine of these products means they’re also perfect for ringing in the new year.
Trend three: Classic Christmas
Fashionable every year, the classic holiday trend is your go-to for sparking Christmas cheer. Ideal for those who like to keep it traditional, this look is your go-to for achieving the classic holiday feel with a twist.

At Crate and Barrel, their ‘all through the house’ range is made up of red and green hues (see the selection of tree decorations here) along with a tasteful navy-blue twist. The collection is made up of plaid fabrics and timeless design to create a style that harks back to the holiday season of our childhoods.
Trend four: Après ski
Though we might not be travelling this year, après-ski styling is in. Use it to create a fun, kitsch look in your space that exudes cosiness.

Crate’s Après-ski holiday collection was inspired by hygge and all things cosy. The ski resort-based design plays on pattern to create a modern, yet retro-festive feel. Statement chevrons and festive fair isle prints ramp up the drama on this otherwise sleek product range. It’s perfect for those looking for a way to make a bold design statement, as each of the products exudes a stylised, yet warm feel.
