Soft Layers for Summer

There's something special about opening up a home for summer again.
Opening the windows after months of stillness, letting in fresh air, and slowly bringing the rooms to life.
Whether it's a house by the sea, a country cottage, or simply a home that transforms with the seasons, summer often invites a softer way of living. Lighter materials. More colour. Rooms that feel cosy, personal, and lived in.

At Ylse, we believe that a home should take shape slowly.
Through textiles, tones, and details that quietly begin to form the feel of a room.
And often, it starts with the bed.
A headboard has the ability to shape a room in a way few other pieces of furniture can. It creates structure, softness, and a natural focal point in the room. Dressed in the right fabric, it becomes the detail that ties everything together — shaping the atmosphere and setting the tone for the entire room.

This season, we're drawn to homes that feel warmer and more personal. Soft floral patterns, layers of linen, subtle stripes, and colours inspired by nature — muted reds, soft green hues, warm creams, and sun-bleached neutrals. A palette that feels calm, timeless, and easy to live with through the seasons.
Often, it's the small changes that make the biggest difference in a room.
A new fabric on a headboard. A softer bed skirt. Pillows in a different texture or a new pattern. Details that add depth without overpowering.

To welcome the season, we've introduced two new fabrics to our collection — both chosen for the way they add warmth, character, and a softer summer feel to the home.
Colefax & Fowler — Delft Tulips



Delft Tulips is a romantic floral pattern with a lively yet elegant expression. The painted tulips add movement and colour to the room, while the warm tones create an inviting and relaxed feel.
A fabric for homes that embrace patterns, charm, and a more playful way of decorating — equally beautiful in a summer house as in a city apartment longing for softness and colour.
Colefax & Fowler — Neela



Neela is a decorative pattern inspired by traditional motifs and botanical forms. Its detailed expression creates depth and character, while the green tones give the room a calm and earthy feel.
A timeless fabric that fits beautifully in homes filled with warmth, texture, and personality.
As summer approaches, we are drawn back to homes that feel personal rather than perfect. Rooms where textiles, textures, and handmade details tell a story about the people who live there.
Because sometimes, that's all it takes — a new fabric or a new headboard — for a room to feel completely new again.
