There’s something about spring in New Zealand that calls for a reset. Longer days, blooming gardens, and softer breezes set the scene for fresh beginnings, and a chance to bring that same feeling into your home.
This season is about lightness and lift: think floral motifs, airy linens and cottons, and outdoor pieces ready for long afternoons entertaining. It’s the perfect time to layer in textures, colours, and playful patterns that make a space feel both renewed and alive.
In this guide, we’ll share ways to refresh your interiors for spring, from nature-inspired details to outdoor living essentials, along with Little & Fox favourites to help complete the look.
The easiest way to welcome spring is with fresh new layers. Trade heavy wools and velvets for linen and cotton, fabrics that feel airy, organic, and effortlessly light. A few new cushion covers can instantly lift a sofa or chair, especially in soft neutrals accented with seasonal shades of buttery yellow, leafy green, or muted blush.
Spring is all about reconnecting with the outdoors, and your home can reflect that same sense of renewal. Think rattan chairs, woven baskets, and natural wood accents, pieces that bring warmth and texture inside. A rattan occasional chair paired with a light cotton cushion makes for an inviting reading nook, while mirrors framed in wood or cane bounce light around to brighten and open up your space.
Florals are timeless in interior design, but spring is when they truly come alive. Keep them feeling modern by weaving them in subtly, through cushions, wall art, or a delicate vase, for a look that feels organic rather than overdone.
Pairing florals with light stripes or soft checks adds balance and texture, creating a mix that feels fresh, playful, and quietly sophisticated.
Nothing says spring like colour. While buttery yellow is the season’s standout, it pairs beautifully with sage green, light terracotta, and soft blue. Use these hues as accents, a scatter cushion on a neutral sofa, or a pastel rug under a coffee table, to bring energy without overwhelm.
With a restrained mix, colour feels cheerful, fresh, and perfectly balanced.
Natural light is the essence of spring, and the right mirrors and lighting can enhance that fresh, open feel. Position an organic-shaped mirror opposite a window to bounce sunlight and add a sculptural touch, while lighter neutral lampshades or a linen floor lamp create a soft, natural glow. These simple shifts keep your home airy, inviting, and perfectly in tune with the season.
With warmer days, outdoor living becomes just as important as indoors. Refresh your patio or garden, from UV-resistant sofas to outdoor tables perfect for laid-back dining.
For a personalised touch, we can create custom upholstery and cushions, seamlessly tying your look together. Choose from a wide range of fabrics, from timeless plains and florals to bold abstracts and weather-ready UV polyester, all designed to withstand New Zealand’s ever-changing climate.Whether you’re updating a favourite piece or designing something new, we’ll help craft outdoor furniture that feels just as stylish and comfortable as your indoors.
Spring Conclusion
Spring is the season of fresh starts, longer days, softer light, and spaces that feel renewed. Whether it’s lighter textiles, playful colour, natural textures, or time spent outdoors, these thoughtful updates create a home that feels vibrant, inviting, and perfectly in tune with the season. With the right mix of pieces, and a touch of Little & Fox, you can carry that sense of spring energy through the year ahead.
