In BOH’s new series On Trend, we’re asking designers to share their favorite of-the-moment finds.

’Tis the season for decorating with sprightly hues, and one pastel family in particular is making major waves in the design world. “We are loving the lavender and lilac trend,” says designer Jean Liu. “On the one hand, they can be calm and soothing colors to use, especially when paired with soft grays or black. However, they can also take on a more playful tone that makes them a nice option for a playroom or kid’s room.”

Inspired, we asked Liu and designers Michelle Gerson and Shoshanna Shapiro to share their favorite pale purple finds and how to integrate them into an interior.

Liu prides herself on creating contemporary, edited, comfortable and evocative spaces. The Dallas-based designer crafts carefully curated homes distinguished by clean lines and modernist-minded details, but not without the occasional zip of an eye-catching pattern or hue.

Known for her eclectic approach to interiors, Gerson has earned a reputation for fostering welcoming spaces filled with a mix of styles. The New York designer tackles each project with a toolbox of bold colors, clean silhouettes and sumptuous finishes to ensure that no space lacks sophistication or livability.

Shapiro believes that a well-designed home can improve your quality of life. Employing a mix of rich earth tones, touchable textiles and artisanally made accents, the Washington, D.C., designer behind Sho and Co creates spaces that find the sweet spot between fresh and timeless.
