With the arrival of sunny days, our interiors need to transform to better match the rhythm of the season. In May, the light becomes more present, nature slowly invites itself into the home and the desire for freshness takes over. It's the perfect time to adapt your decoration, without necessarily changing everything, by focusing on lightness, clarity and softness.
THE flamingo style, elegant and timeless, is an ideal ally for this transition to sunny days. It stands out for its love of natural materials, his soothing colors and its unique way of make a space warm without weighing it down. Here are all our tips for prepare your flamingo interior for the summer season, all in subtlety and harmony.
Spring and summer invite us to simplify spaces. In a Flemish interior, this doesn't mean removing everything, but rather rethink the staging And highlight the light natural.
Remove decorative elements that are too dark or too dense (thick blankets, heavy rugs, dark metal objects).
Keep the essentials : a ceramic vase, a few books, a well-chosen natural setting are enough to create a balanced atmosphere.
Make room for the light : clear window sills and avoid blackout curtains.
💡 Tip: Group small decorative objects on a single tray or console to maintain a sense of clarity.
The Flemish style gives a central place to authentic materials, which take on even more meaning in the summer. The objective is to preserve visual warmth while providing more fluidity and lightness.
Washed linen : curtains, cushion covers, tablecloths or fine throws. It lets light through and offers a soft and lively texture.
Light or weathered wood : to be kept as furniture or small decorative objects.
Matte ceramics, raw stoneware : for vases, lamps and accessories.
Rattan, wicker or seagrass : perfect as storage baskets, mirrors or small occasional furniture.
💡 Tip: Simply swap your cushions or curtains for lightweight linen or cotton in brighter shades. The impact will be immediate.
The arrival of the sun is an opportunity for give natural light its rightful placeIn a Flemish interior, this is always highlighted in a subtle way.
Install a mirror opposite or near a window to reflect light.
Use light curtains to gently filter the sun without preventing it from entering.
Replace light sources that are too white or too strong by warm light bulbs (2700K to 3000K).
Ceramic table lamps with linen shades : for diffused light.
Small LED garlands around a frame or mirror, for a soft touch in the evening.
Smoked glass tealight holders or lanterns : to place on a console or a coffee table.
Spring is the perfect season for introduce plants into the homeIn the Flemish spirit, we prefer sober plants, well presented, rather than a profusion of greenery.
Eucalyptus, lavender, fern Or pampas : alone or in a bouquet.
Potted plants like a small olive tree or a pilea, in stoneware or jute planters.
Seasonal flowers (tulips, peonies, ranunculus) in a ceramic or blown glass vase.
💡 Tip: Sometimes a single stem in a pretty vase is enough to create a fresh and elegant effect.
The Flemish style is based on a neutral and balanced palette, which can be subtly evolve according to the season. In May, we introduce lighter, slightly tinted tones, to accompany the light.
Off-white, ecru, sand : for walls, curtains, large surfaces.
Sage green, pale blue, powder pink : in small touches on cushions, decorative objects or household linen.
Light gray, linen beige : as a base to harmonize the whole.
💡 Tip: If you don't want to repaint, simply change the textile elements or add a bouquet in a pastel shade to energize the space.
With the longer days, we can enjoy our homes more, even during the day. Why not create a reading corner, a relaxation area or a mini spring dining room ?
A light linen armchair near a window, accompanied by a fine plaid, a cotton cushion and a soft lamp.
A small light wood table with two rattan chairs, ideal for bright breakfasts.
A bench made of wood or patinated metal, accessorized with some light cushions and a storage basket.
These small adjustments reinforce the side warm, lively and evolving Flemish style.
Although the Flemish style is often associated with the interior, it can also be expressed on a balcony, terrace or in an exterior entrance.
Jute outdoor rug, linen floor cushions, light garland suspended…

The idea is to extend the atmosphere of the house outside, in a fluid continuity.
