Designing for the New Year
By Rebecca Wardon, Interior Design Manager
As the year is coming to a close, let’s look at some of the trends that are on the horizon.
ALL NATURAL
One major trend we continue to see is having design that’s rooted in nature. Sometimes this will appear in obvious ways, like indoor plants and natural wood tones. And sometimes it’s a little more nuanced, like organic, curved shapes and leathers.
Using color is another great way to create a natural connection in your style. Go for greens, browns, grays, and blues to bring the feel of the outdoors into your home.
BUILD CHARACTER
Having some depth to your home décor has become an important part of style. One way to accomplish that is by combining the old and the new in a modern-rustic design. For instance, you can enhance the classic farmhouse style with more modern steel and iron pieces that can breathe new life into an already timeless look.
And sometimes it’s not only about the aesthetic. A piece with a great story behind it or a personal connection to you can act as a great accent or tie a whole look together. Creating character by choosing pieces with a little more meaning is definitely on-trend.
MAKE A STATEMENT
Statement pieces continue to be a major staple of today’s design trends. So if you want to be bold, why not take it to the new heights. You’ve heard of the statement wall, how about the statement ceiling? An unexpected color or even wallpaper on your ceiling gives a room dimension like you’ve never seen before.
