Introducing Our French Château Trend

A little elegance goes a long way, and our latest trend is here to prove it. Inspired by the grand, ornate charm of a French château, this trend combines classic styles with modern design to give a fresh, opulent feel to any room. From sculpted silhouettes to delicate details, it’s all about balance: romantic but never fussy, traditional yet quietly contemporary.

Think soft floral prints, antique-style finishes, and natural textures elevated with scalloped edges, carved woods, and gentle neutrals to achieve your French country aesthetic. Whether you’re dressing the table for long, lazy dinners or styling a bedroom for slow, sun-drenched mornings, this is luxury that feels lived-in.

Bonjour to your beautiful bedroom

Let your bedroom set the tone for the rest of your home with calming colours, romantic touches, and elegant textures. 

The Alice bed linen collection is the perfect place to start. Crafted from a crisp 200-thread-count cotton and finished with a delicate lace border, it’s quietly romantic and ideal for creating that classic château feel without going full vintage. For a splash of colour, layer it with the Chloe printed bedspread, which adds an ornate floral motif and a little extra cosiness for cooler nights.

To complete the look, the Stripe Surrey Bed Frame brings quiet sophistication to any bedroom. Its tailored, lined, and gently arched headboard offers a French twist on a classic British design. The subtly striped fabric makes it the perfect statement for a restful, refined bedroom. Enjoy understated luxury you’ll want to retreat to every night. 

Add a little ooh la la to your home

Dining rooms in French country homes are more than just functional, they’re made for gathering, lingering, and making memories. And with our French Château trend, yours can be too.

Set the tone for every meal with the Anya dining table, crafted from pine wood with a warm, natural elegance. It’s designed to feel like a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle of mealtimes, whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning coffee or hosting a candlelit dinner with friends.

For added charm, look to the Simone table linen range. Scalloped edges offer a subtle nod to the romanticism of this trend, and they pair beautifully with the Mira dinnerware collection. It’s a match made in heaven for afternoon teas, Sunday lunches, or simply elevating your everyday meals.

Oui oui to the settee

Comfort and style go hand in hand with French-inspired living rooms, and this trend has a little something for every space.

Sink into sophistication with the Chesterfield Sofa - a modern take on a timeless piece that adds traditional style to any room. With its deep button detailing and curved silhouette, it’s as statement-making as it is comfortable.

It brings a refined touch to any space, making it perfect for cosy corners, reading nooks, or elegant hallways. Understated yet distinctive, and designed to feel like home.

Just add layered throws, a few cushions, and you’ve got the makings of a room you’ll want to sink into every evening.

FAQs

What is the difference between French Country and Cottagecore?

While both styles favour charm and softness, French Country is rooted in tradition and elegance. It’s about refined rusticity - think carved wood furniture, scalloped accents, and antique-style finishes. Cottagecore leans more whimsical, often incorporating homemade details, pastel palettes, and a touch of nostalgia. If Cottagecore is the countryside picnic, French Country is the candlelit dinner in the château.

Can you mix modern design with the French Château trend?

Absolutely. In fact, that’s what keeps the look feeling fresh. Modern pieces with clean lines can help ground more ornate furniture and stop the room from feeling overly styled. Look for simple silhouettes in soft tones, add mirrors or lighting with subtle detailing, and don’t be afraid to keep things minimalist in some areas. It’s all about balance.

What colours work best for a French Château interior?

Stick to soft, elegant neutrals - think creamy whites, muted sage, gentle greys, and warm taupes. Add richness with deeper tones like plum, moss green, or antique gold, especially through upholstery, cushions or accessories. A floral print or classic stripe can add just the right amount of pattern.

How do I get the French Château look on a budget?

Start with the details. You don’t need to overhaul your home, just layer in the right accents. Scalloped edges, curved furniture legs, and classic floral prints can instantly elevate your space. Choose timeless, neutral pieces that will last, and build the look over time with affordable soft furnishings like gingham bedding, textured cushions, and natural throws.
