If we had to choose one home accessory that *every* London woman has right now, it’s a nature-inspired print fromHouse of Hackney．The brand is known for its opulent, moody designs—and it’s been nailing theHipstoric Heritage trendlong before it was even a thing. Take it from the inspiration behind Kate Moss’s bucolic home, which is filled with “slithers of snakeskin, rosettes of leopard spots and flourishes of bamboo,” according to thebrand’s website．Plus, while Moss used everything from the brand’sZanjan wallpaper in Juniper-Greento its signatureSabel tiger throw pillows, you can tone down the look by incorporating just one nature-inspired print and keeping the rest of your patterns solid.

WhileCoastal Grandmothermight have had a major spotlight this year, the Brits have been sporting the old-school print for centuries. More specifically, withantique Oriental chestsandpenwork tables．The pieces showcase a lacquered, Regency-era design with handpainted accents—and ifRosmund Pike's restored London townhomeis any indication, it’s the perfect way to combine old with new. “I [recently] bought a penwork table, where they used to do black, fine penmanship, with black drawing all over it. It’s an exquisite thing from the 1820s,” theGone GirlstartellsArchitectual Digest．“I think it comes from this idea of inheriting stuff like your mother’s chair, not recovering it and putting out some modern things.”

ICYMI, pleated lampshades are back—and they’re at this forefront of this year’sminimal maximalism trend．“Whether fashioned from a yummy print or a bold-colored solid fabric (which will emanate the coziest of glows come sundown!), pleats have the habit of looking decidedly custom,” writes design expert Marisa S. Martin onChairish.com．“在我们这个看起来是选择最好的技巧pleated shades in darker-colored fabrics or prints, which will ensure your [lighting] reads like candlelight,” she continues. “[It] can give [an old lamp] a new lease on life when perched atop a relic like a ceramic figurine lamp or a less-than-novel swing-arm lamp—[and] a pleated shade will play to your lamp’s antiquity while adding a quirky, haute bohemian edge.”

The easiest way to transition your home fromcontemporarytoclassic? Artwork. Instead of colorful, abstract illustrations (i.e.,Matisse), you want to look for scenic rural landscapes with autumn hues. Think: an oil painting of a horse on a pastoral farm. Or a framed photograph of a creek in the countryside. Everything should be earthy and cozy with a rustic, agricultural-inspired subject.

Sure, we’ve seen thefamous Anthropologie floor mirrortrending for a while now. But this year, the look is getting a very British upgrade with worn, patina bronze finishes and antique ornate styles. Think: royal embellishments at the top of the frame. Or shiny gold hues swapped for more toned-down, lived-in metals. Everything about the accessory should feel aged (instead of trendy) while still being big enough to make a statement against an empty blank wall.
