Design That Connects with Nature
Design tastes are evolving. Today’s clients want more than clean lines and contemporary colours, they’re looking for comfort, calm, and a closer connection to nature. This shift is fuelling the rise of biophilic design, a style that brings the outdoors in through natural materials, earthy tones, and organic textures.
For trade professionals, this trend opens up exciting opportunities. Whether you’re curating boutique bedrooms, wellness-focused spaces, or high-spec interiors, combining soft green finishes with warm, textured woodgrains offers an effortlessly serene aesthetic that appeals to modern homeowners.
With over 40 foil-wrapped finishes – including 15 new Egger swatches – IDS gives trade professionals the freedom to craft interiors that feel bespoke, on-trend, and enduringly stylish.
The Biophilic Trend: Why Green + Wood Works
Biophilic design is all about bringing the outdoors in, both visually and psychologically. Pairing Hinged wardrobe doors with textured woodgrains with earthy, nature-inspired greens evokes feelings of tranquillity, groundedness, and warmth.
This combination:
- Reduces visual clutter with organic, soothing tones.
- Creates a connection to nature in bedrooms, home offices, and living spaces.
- Appeals to modern consumers seeking wellness-focused interiors.
From sage greens to deep forest tones, IDS offers a range of options to help trade partners bring these looks to life, in both traditional and contemporary settings.
Egger Finishes Available at IDS
Working with Egger decorative board finishes, IDS offers durable, stylish options that bring biophilic principles to life. These finishes combine texture, tone, and practical performance — ideal for designers working across a variety of spaces.
Popular green and natural wood-inspired foil finishes include:
