As the RHS Chelsea Flower Show prepares to bloom once more (20–24 May 2025), it’s the perfect moment to pause and appreciate the joy that nature brings - both in the garden and in the home. At William & Irene, we believe that the spaces we live in should reflect the beauty and calm of the outdoors. This spring, we’re drawing inspiration from the floral displays and garden trends of Chelsea to refresh our interiors with a timeless, nature-led touch.
Fresh Florals and Heritage Textiles
Floral interiors never go out of style. Whether in the form of chintz, botanical prints, or embroidered details, flowers have long held a place in British homes. But for those who prefer subtlety to pattern, there’s a quieter way to honour the garden: through colour, texture and natural materials.
Our Harris Tweed® cushions and homewares offer a sophisticated way to echo the tones of an English garden. Think mossy greens, heather purples, and earthy hues that bring a grounded elegance to sitting rooms, reading corners or conservatories.
Chelsea-Inspired Styling Tips
If you're looking to bring a little Chelsea magic indoors, here are a few styling ideas to try:
-
Pair tweed with fresh florals – Add a tweed cushion to a linen-covered armchair, and finish the look with a jug of garden blooms on the side table.
-
Layer natural textures – Mix wool, wood, and vintage ceramics for a cottage-garden feel that’s rich in comfort and charm.
-
Use floral tones, not prints – A soft green or duck egg blue tweed offers the same botanical inspiration as a print, but with a more timeless finish.
-
Keep it local – Just like the RHS celebrates the best of British horticulture, we champion British craftsmanship in everything we make.
Sustainable Beauty, Season After Season
The Chelsea Flower Show reminds us of the importance of nature, sustainability, and slow-growing beauty - values that are woven into the heart of everything we do. Our soft furnishings are made to last, using one of the world’s most enduring fabrics: genuine Harris Tweed, handwoven in the Outer Hebrides.
By choosing quality over quantity, and timeless style over trends, you're investing in pieces that will stay beautiful season after season.
