Inside Scotland’s Home of Inspiration: Sterling Home’s Style Guide

They say home is where the heart is… and at Sterling Home, we’ve spent over 50 years helping people across Scotland create spaces filled with both comfort and character. What began as a family business in Tillicoultry has grown into a trusted name in interiors, now known as Sterling Home. Formerly Sterling Furniture, we’ve evolved into a one-stop destination for quality sofas, furniture, bedroom sets, homewares, rugs, flooring and more, while staying true to our roots.

“My grandfather started Sterling in 1974, and while so much has changed in the way people live and shop, our core values haven’t. We’re still proudly family-run and passionate about helping our customers build homes they love.”

Our style guide is here to inspire every step of your home journey, helping you blend timeless design with those heartfelt touches that truly make a house a home.

Start with comfort, then layer character

A home should feel inviting the moment you step through the door. Start with core furniture pieces that suit you and your life, perhaps a modular sofa you can sink into, or dining table crafted from solid oak, made for everyday meals and making memories with loved ones. Then, layer in warmth with rugs, cushions, throws, candles and wall art that reflect your personal taste.

Sterling Style Tip: Mix materials like linen, wood and velvet or a welcoming contrast. It’s not just about how a room looks… but how it feels.

Let lighting set the mood

Lighting is the quiet force behind every well-designed space. The right lamp can transform a corner into a cosy reading nook, while a pendant light can make your dining area feel instantly more intimate. Our lighting range includes everything from sculptural floor lamps to soft-glow table lamps, perfect for every time of day, and every room in your home.

Sterling Style Tip: For a warm and welcoming feel, layer your lighting. Start with your main ceiling light, then add focused lamps for reading or working, and finish with softer lighting like table or floor lamps to create the ultimate ambience.

Style with intention, not perfection

The most memorable homes aren’t polished to perfection… they’re lived-in and loved, full of moments and mementoes. Style open shelving with pieces that mean something to you. Stack your favourite books with a candle or two. Add greenery to bring a fresh sense of life. Our wide range of home accessories makes it easy to add these personal flourishes that turn any space into your very own oasis.

Sterling Style Tip: Your home doesn’t need to be “finished” - it should evolve with you.

Create a sanctuary to retreat to

Bedrooms should offer calm, not clutter. Choose pieces that are as functional as they are beautiful, like durable and quality bedroom furniture (perhaps with hidden handles for the ultimate ‘clean’ look and smart storage), or a bedframe made with incredible craftsmanship. Add softness with a quality duvet, plump pillows and layered throws in a soothing colours, such as green, blue or white.

Sterling Style Tip: Keep your bedroom free of distractions and full of comfort. Choose soothing colours and tactile textures to create a true sanctuary.
