As the Gulf’s summer sun reaches its peak, Sedar Global unveils its High Summer 2025 edit — a refined approach to seasonal living rooted in elegance, intentionality, and smart design. From immersive colour palettes to energy-efficient window treatments, the storied interiors house — known for its collaborations with Armani/Casa, Missoni Home, and The Met — offers a curated vision for creating calm, contemporary sanctuaries.

“Summer interiors today must work harder,” says Nahel Selo, Creative Director at Sedar. “It’s not only about aesthetics, but engineering comfort, softness, and sustainability.”

This season embraces tactile layering: butter yellow velvets, pistachio sheers, and moody mocha cottons envelop rooms in tonal harmony. Pattern re-emerges with confidence — think striped linens, biophilic wallpapers, and cane-wrapped accent pieces — while reupholstery services allow beloved furniture to be reimagined with intentional texture.

Selo also champions smart design that responds to the region’s climate. Sedar’s cotton-linen blackout blends, paired with sheer drapes and automated Somfy systems, help reduce solar gain and energy consumption — all while maintaining a chic, tonal look. For an architectural flourish, wallpapered ceilings and statement blinds offer moments of visual surprise without overwhelming the space.

The focus, Selo explains, is on preference and personalisation. Whether layering textures within a single colour family, or introducing botanical elements through woven blinds and sage-toned drapery, Sedar’s collection adapts to every interior narrative.

For those seeking a mid-season refresh, Sedar’s Shades of Summer Sale runs through 15 August, offering up to 35% off curtains, blinds, wallcoverings, upholstery and outdoor shading solutions — in-store and online.

“Home should feel like a retreat,” says Selo. “One that evolves with your life and reflects your style — effortlessly.”
