Furniture to restore and reorder
Summer, there is no doubt, has been a blast. Weeks of glorious sunshine, the mother of all heatwaves and the chance to kick back with our favourites.
But now the children are back to school, the days are slowly shortening and the leaves are beginning to turn, attention is turning once more to our homes.
Decluttering and reordering spaces brings a sense of calm for the season ahead.
Visit our showrooms, where you'll discover furniture and accessories to restore order and refresh every room in your home, be inspired by our stunning displays and enjoy delicious, seasonal dishes in our Glasshouse café.
Free up the family room
Family rooms are among the most tricky spaces to style - but the Chawton cabinetry makes it child's play. Available in a huge choice of paint finishes to suit every scheme, you can build your own storage system and keep adding to it as your family and your needs grow.
Start with a chest of drawers, add glazed cabinets and open bookcase. Detail a wine rack and build extra shelving, and you'll have a beautiful, functional piece of cabinetry to hide all the children's clutter, from puzzles and board games to art and crafts materials, games consoles to books - even the TV.
Dresser for succes
Dining rooms. Quietly elegant, scene of lively lunches and smart dinner parties, fiercely-fought board games and marathon present-wrapping sessions.
Tuck away the napkins, placemats, spare glasses, high-days-holidays serving dishes and silverware in a dresser. The glazed upper doors of the Dorset have a distinctly Fifties feel, while the open shelves of the Chichester range show off your favourite finds, from pretty vases to treasured family photos.
Community chest
In the bedroom, an ottoman is the perfect hiding place for linen, spare pillows and winter throws. In the hallways, it's a handy storage space for shoes and gloves, in the sitting room, the place to stash old DVD and remotes.
Try the Eloise ottoman, pictured above, upholstered in a range of beautiful Neptune linens or for the classic countryside style in a boot room, go for the Dorset tall coat rack and storage bench.
Small steps
Breathing new life into your rooms doesn't have to mean major furniture purchases. Refreshing the cushions and throws on your sofa or adding a new rug or candle arrangement will create a sense of renewal.
Pack away the summer blues and pinks and introduce richer, autumnal shades of olive, plum, mustard and Neptune's new Constable Green - deep, inky, earthy pigments steeped in English countryside.
Our showrooms are a treasure trove of accessories, from cushions and throws to lighting, candles and home fragrance. And our Neptune store-in-store is a celebration of British design - think hand-thrown tableware, decorative pieces, tactile wood and rich velvets, all designed to make your house a home.
