Interior design trend: celestial homeware accessories inspired by the night's sky

By Megan Murray

5 years ago

From cushions to ceramics, these starry homeware accessories will fill your home with magic.

We’ve been looking to the stars for all sorts recently – from astrological dating trends to facials that follow the moon phases. But out of all the ways the cosmos is affecting us, it’s the celestial aesthetic that we like the most, and it’s a look that’s particularly decor-friendly.

Whether it’s a romantic splattering of stars across a cushion, figures of the moon for decoration or just the rich hue of midnight blue, the sky provides ample interior design inspiration. 

So, if you have a soft spot for the celestial, check out this homeware edit filled with beautiful accessories from both big brands and independent makers.

Full Moon Waves print

This mystical print is illustrated by Alice Marani, and depicts a scene of tumbling waves lit up by the glow of moonlight.

We love the rich, dark colours and golden accenting, which together create a magical feel.

How pretty are these delicate champagne glasses? They’re made from hand-blown, fine crystal glass and have been etched with tiny stars that will twinkle below your bubbles.

We can’t think of anything better to toast a celebration with.

Charnelle Pinkney Barlow is an illustrator from the US whose artwork is often inspired by women and the specialness of the female bond. 

Here, her Sun Sisters print reflects the deep relationship she has with her sister, showing them sharing the same sky through the tendrils of their hair.
