It’s been a challenging time recently, and we’ve relied on our homes more than ever as they became makeshift offices, gyms, and even classrooms. So as the seasons change and life returns to some sort of new normal, it’s about time we showed our homes some love and gave those much used spaces a well-deserved refresh.
Homelover and Homesense fan Darren Kennedy is switching up his space for the new season with his top Homesense picks to transform a lived-in space. Combining natural tones and textures like wood, rattan and leather with a nod to seventies details is a great way to add glamour and a touch of fun, perfect for Darren’s signature bold look.
This grey patterned rug, €139.99, will ground any space with its soft, neutral palette, as well as providing a soft surface underfoot.
A dedicated relaxation zone is a must, and what better than a gorgeous swinging chair? Expect it to become everyone’s favourite chillout spot. Hangout chair, €349.99.
It’s hard to beat leather for its rich colour and touch-me texture. This versatile piece would look great anywhere from a hallway to a bedroom. Leather perch, €139.99.
Choosing elevated everyday pieces is a great way to make your home feel luxurious and welcoming. Add some glamour to mealtimes with this Dinner’s Ready cutlery, €26.99.

For the IMAGE Interiors team the colder months means turning to cosy shades with touches of organic texture, providing the warmth that may be lacking outside. We also love the transformative power of switching up just a few key pieces in a room.
An eye-catching vase here or colourful print there can introduce colour or texture where it had been lacking. Our picks from the Homesense collection are all guaranteed to help refresh your space, ready for the new season.
