8 interior collaborations that need to be on your radar this summer
There is something undeniably exciting about an interior collaboration.
Whether it’s the unexpected pairing of two creative worlds, or the opportunity to see a familiar brand in an entirely different way, the best partnerships bring a whole new energy to decoration.
And this season’s launches have arrived at exactly the right moment.
Now that spring has shifted into summer and we’ve finally ditched our winter wardrobes in favour of something altogether more sunshiney, we get a similar urge to refresh homes.
Suddenly those cosy corners and rich fabrics feel a little too heavy.
Instead, we find ourselves craving spaces that feel lighter, fresher and more fun, whether that means introducing a brand new colour palette, a decorative piece of furniture or a punch of pattern via some playful tableware.
Thankfully to scratch that new interiors itch a full renovation isn’t necessary.
Instead, the latest wave of interior collaborations offer an easy way to update a room – minimal effort, maximum impact.
Below, we showcase some of our favourite British-led launches of the moment, each bringing a fresh perspective to our decor this season and beyond.
FARM Rio x Anthropologie
A high street favourite teams up with one of Brazil’s most joyful fashion exports.
Beloved for its exuberant prints, poppy colour palettes and holiday-ready dresses, this cult brand has become a much-loved British style staple.
Now the partnership has turned its attention to interiors, bringing its signature tropical aesthetic to table linens, tableware and decorative accessories.
Expect vibrant florals, playful fruit motifs and plenty of sunshine-soaked colour.
“We believe in homes with soul, and spaces where every object tells a story and every corner reflects personality,” says Mariana Leal, head of collaborations and Partnerships at FARM Rio.
“This collaboration with Anthropologie is about more than just products, it is about creating a way of living that feels warm, effortless and full of meaning.
“We wanted to bring that spirit to life through pieces that welcome people in to gather with friends, bring family together and celebrate everyday moments with warmth and soul.”
Our standout piece? The banana and palm leaf ceramic side table, £168, which is the perfect perch for your Pina Colada.
West Elm x Emma Chamberlain
Gen Z’s favourite internet personality has officially entered the world of interiors.
West Elm’s new collaboration with Emma Chamberlain marks the content creator’s first homeware collection, bringing her signature humour, individuality and slightly offbeat style to furniture, lighting and decorative accessories, designed with small-space living in mind.
Expect playful details, layered textures and pieces that feel intentionally eclectic rather than overly polished, all centred around creating a home that feels personal and lived-in.
While the collection includes everything from cosy seating to statement lighting, our standout piece has to be the pigeon pitcher: quirky, charming and the sort of tableware hero that kicks the conversation off.
Pickleson Paint x Matthew Williamson
Few designers understand the transformative power of colour quite like Matthew Williamson.
The British designer, known for his exuberant prints and glamorous interiors, has partnered with The Pickleson Paint Co. on a joyful new collection of sixteen bespoke shades.
Drawing on decades of creative instinct, Williamson has distilled his signature aesthetic into a palette that balances boldness with sophistication: think confident pinks, rich earthy tones and subtle references to the peacock hues that defined his early fashion career, all softened by the sun-bleached beauty of Mallorca, where he now lives.
Designed for real homes rather than showrooms, the collection encourages a more playful approach to decorating while still feeling chic and liveable.
In short, it is the perfect antidote to beige.
“After my career pivoted from fashion to interiors, I was really keen to create a paint line for many years,” Matthew Williamson says of the collaboration.
“I’ve often focused on product that goes in a room; a rug or a lamp or wallpaper.
“But now, this is an opportunity for me to really wrap a space in colour.
“Partnering up with Pickleson really was like a dream project for me,” Williamson continues.
“I have been dressing people for 20 years.
“I’ve been styling homes for at least another 10 years.
“And now I feel really well equipped to fill your home with colour.”
Rebecca Udall x Rachel Bottomley
Proof that placemats need not be boring.
Rebecca Udall has teamed up with painter Rachel Bottomley on a joyful new collection that transforms the humble table staple into something far more charming.
Known for her richly textured floral artworks, Bottomley has brought two of her signature British garden-inspired paintings – dusky red poppies and delicate blue cornflowers – to a set of cork-backed placemats handmade in England.
Each piece is slightly different, capturing the movement and spontaneity of the original brushstrokes, while Rebecca Udall’s elevated eye for tableware ensures they still feel totally timeless.
The result is playful, nostalgic and perfectly primed to pop down your Pinot.
Little Greene x National Trust: In the Garden
Bringing the outside in has never looked so charming.
Little Greene’s latest collaboration with the National Trust – the sixth wallpaper collection created between the two brands – takes inspiration from some of Britain’s most beloved gardens, greenhouses and floral archives.
Titled In the Garden, the collection spans eight richly decorative designs, from romantic Arts & Crafts florals by William Morris’s daughter May Morris to sweeping murals inspired by the famous garden “rooms” at Sissinghurst Castle.
There are also more playful nods to everyday horticulture, including Mr Straw’s Greenhouse, based on a modest collection of cacti belonging to a Nottinghamshire grocer in the 1930s.
Joyful, nostalgic and eclectic, the wallpapers celebrate the enduring British love affair with gardens.
Commenting on the collection Little Greene’s creative director, Ruth Mottershead says: “Bringing the colour and joy of nature and flowers in bloom, there is something for everyone in this completely eclectic collection; from the simple, often overlooked daisy to the elaborate, sweeping planting of Sissinghurst Castle.”
Lick x Hunter
If there were ever a paint colour designed for British weather, this might just be it.
To celebrate Hunter’s 170th anniversary, the iconic welly brand has teamed up with paint company Lick on a rich new shade inspired by its unmistakable ‘Hunter Green’.
The limited-edition colour, aptly named Green 170, captures the glossy finish of Hunter’s Original Tall Boots in paint form, translating a beloved piece of British design history onto walls, woodwork and furniture.
Available in a soft-sheen eggshell finish, the collaboration feels playful, nostalgic and elegantly timeless, perfect for anyone looking to bring a little countryside charm indoors.
Even better? Just 170 tins have been produced, making it the interiors equivalent of a collector’s item.
“Rooted in Hunter’s outdoor heritage, the shade naturally lends itself to the spaces where everyday life begins and ends,” explains Tash Bradley, director of interior design at Lick.
“Hallways and boot rooms, where muddy boots are kicked off after countryside walks or rainy city days, feel like a natural home for Green 170.
“Yet the versatility of this shade extends far beyond practical spaces.
“Its rich depth and balancing undertones make it equally at home in living rooms, dining spaces or bedrooms, creating interiors that feel grounded, welcoming and quietly sophisticated.”
Divine Savages x Pikes Ibiza
Few places embody carefree glamour quite like Pikes Ibiza, and now the legendary hotel has been immortalised in wallpaper form thanks to a riotously fun collaboration with Divine Savages.
Reimagining traditional patterns through a distinctly disco-fuelled lens, Club Tropikana swaps classic scenes for roller skates, flamingos, swaying palms and plenty of tongue-in-cheek hedonism inspired by the hotel’s famously eccentric spirit.
Available in six gloriously escapist colourways – from Poolside Pistachio to Disco Noir – the collection feels equal parts retro, tropical and unapologetically maximalist.
In other words: exactly the sort of wallpaper designed to make every day feel a little more like a holiday.
Edward Bulmer x Pollyanna Wilkinson
For anyone dreaming of a garden that feels beautifully wild rather than overly manicured, Edward Bulmer’s latest collaboration with garden designer Pollyanna Wilkinson is a masterclass in understated colour.
Inspired by the shifting tones and textures of the English landscape, the collection introduces three new exterior shades – Helleborus, Thicket and Shadow – paired with two existing Edward Bulmer favourites – Fawn and Mummy.
The palette draws on weathered materials, soft planting and the rhythm of nature to create a connection between indoors and out.
As Wilkinson herself explains, the intention was never for the colours to “shout”, but instead to harmonise with the organic beauty of a garden.
