Regal Revival – The Regencycore Resurgence You’ve Been Waiting For

Royally ornate interiors are back, but with a contemporary twist.

25th February 2025

Encouraging an opulent yet warm atmosphere, regal-inspired homes are nothing short of luxurious.

Elegant fabrics, refined palettes, and plenty of detail make the style truly special. Regal Revival tunes into the Regencycore trend that recently graced the interiors space. Both share a love of ornamentation, the finer details, and a general sense of opulence. Contemporary twists and personal touches make the style accessible. So, want to add hints of luxury to your everyday surroundings? Step into the trend below.

Use Fabrics Inspired by Grand Architecture

 Start your scheme with a selection of opulent textures and patterns.

Symphony Collection, Raffles Collection

Regal-inspired homes use a mixture of textures and techniques to set the scene. Look to architecture found within beautiful venues such as concert halls for inspiration. Combine luxurious designs such as intricate embroideriesjacquards, and damasks. Balance large expanses of pattern with plain fabrics. Choose neutral designs in sumptuous textures such as faux silk and satin. Add in designs such as geometrics for a contemporary spin on the theme.

Form a Refined yet Elegant Palette

Choose more muted colourways that allow texture and pattern to do the talking.

Symphony Collection

Enhance the sheen of textures such as satin with refined colourways. Shades that work especially well include sophisticated neutrals through to champagne hues. Jacquards and embroideries look especially striking in bronze and copper tones. These pair well with materials such as gold, too. So, present your fabrics alongside these throughout the room.

Create Your Own Cosy Corner

Promoting relaxation, no regal space would be complete without a space to unwind.

Symphony Collection, Velour Collection

Perfect for reading, scrolling, or just unwinding, cosy corners are becoming more important. Set the backdrop with long, flowing drapery for a focal point that also cocoons you. Make your seating fit for royalty by using a sumptuous fabric such as velvet. Surround yourself with gold accents. Use a stylish yet unobtrusive side table to perch your favourite books on. Complete with potted foliage and personal touches such as photo frames.

Add the Finishing Touches with Regal Elements

Focus on the finer details with ornate accents and accessories.

Symphony Collection, Raffles Collection

Choose gold for accents such as furniture bases. Grand vases and bowls are especially fitting, too. Use these to present florals and foliage. Make a feature of architectural elements such as cornicing and coving. Alternatively, add in wall panelling for a contemporary look. Glass and crystal also create sophistication, whether through a glass vase or a chandelier. Even something as simple as a mirror can have the same effect. Mirrors are also ideal for making a space appear larger.
