A poll, of 2,000 adults, identified the places they draw their style from - everything from rugs to wallpaper - with France, Denmark and Norway also featuring. A third (33 per cent) revealed they feel so passionate about interior design they'd even choose a holiday destination based on a country’s home décor heritage. Although it's not just overseas' styles that inspire us - 19 per cent have been influenced by home décor associated with staycation destinations here in the UK. With 'English country cottage' style, rustic Scandi, and white buildings from Greece being the most popular specific design styles from across the globe. Commissioned by DFS, the research found 33 per cent would like to restyle areas of their home to reflect the style of their favourite places, but 63 per cent don’t think they have the skillset to do so. Pippa Jameson, author of ‘The Sensory Home’ and sensory design expert, said: “In the rush of everyday life, we yearn for a sense of escapism and spaces inspired by our favourite destinations. “From far flung locations like Japan and Sweden, to closer to home in the United Kingdom - interior design inspiration can be found in every corner of the globe. Sensory design brings our travels home, creating spaces that unlock a treasure trove of memories and emotions through touch, sight, scent, and sound. “Our homes serve as sanctuaries - places of solace, inspiration, and connection. Sensory design allows us to tailor our living environments and merge holiday memories into the fabric of our everyday lives. Whether it's the tranquil hues of a coastal retreat, the rustic charm of a mountain lodge, or the vibrant energy of a tropical paradise.” The research went on to find the average UK home pays homage to two different countries’ interior styles. With people taking overseas inspiration for the colours used in their home (28 per cent), artwork and prints displayed (26 per cent) and the furniture (25 per cent). Five hours on average are spent researching interior design trends before people redesign a space in their home, with inspiration coming from interiors websites (33 per cent), browsing retail stores (28 per cent) or their websites (27 per cent), and Pinterest (20 per cent). Art and colour also being the two key things to evoke a sense of escapism. Furthermore, 58 per cent like to display souvenirs from their travels in their homes - fridge magnets, ornaments, glasses, cups and vases topped the list, and when coming back from a holiday, 46 per cent feel inspired to adopt certain parts of the lifestyle. With the diet, culture and interior design style among the top things they’d like to instate in their life, and 22 per cent of those polled through OnePoll claim travel has encouraged them to step outside their comfort zone when it comes to decorating their home. Kellie Wyles, head of upholstery at DFS, added: “As we head into the summer months, our minds can often drift to getaways and adventure, but we don’t need to hop on a plane to indulge in some wanderlust - we can also embrace escapism from the comfort of our own home. “Picking up interiors inspiration from holidays and destinations you see online or on TV can be a great place to start and can create a beautifully eclectic space that’s unique to you.”
