Yep, you did read that right. Stripes are set to make a decor comeback in 2022. And thankfully, there’s a lot more choice around now than simple candy stripes or squiggly lines.

Whether your vibe is orderly and uniform, or you’re after something a little more bohemian and retro, we’ve got the design inspo for you. Think bevelled mirrors, groovy prints, staircase stripes. There’s plenty of different ways to earn yours. So get involved.
