Staying abreast of trends of interior design can be both exhausting and quite confusing actually. Most people rely on influencers and well-known interior designers for choosing trends that will make it big while trend forecasters present the best impressions of the innovative furniture designs and decor that will rule in the near future. Discovering trends before they become completely mainstream is highly sought after in the industry.

Some of the major interior design trends that one can expect next year:

1. Organic colour shades

One can expect a huge preference in the use of earthy and organic tones especially for your home décor with the terracotta, Sienna, and sage green colours standing tall in trendy shades. Pairing these colours with lighter shades like coastal blues for a smart, modern look. Use them on accent pieces, on upholstery and accessories.

2. Use of Velvet

For making a statement on the design of furniture pieces, use velvet armchairs that are now quite in trend. Velvet accent pieces are bound to create flutters in the market owing to their elegant touch. Position these velvet pieces anywhere even in terms of cushions and pillows.

3. Vibrant Greenery

The lush greens have always been a priority for discerning homeowners who wish to have greenery around to balance the energy of their home. One would find this trend ruling in most places, as lush plants can help many breathe life into living spaces. Use figs and palms or vines that blend in with the exterior of the home, while you can opt for bamboo plants and climbers to plant within your home.

4. Stylish curtains

When choosing draping options instead of blinds, sheer curtains are sure to be the top choice as they filter in light perfectly through the windows. Additionally, they look incredible in pale pastels and light grey and can add subtlety into any space easily!

Major interior design trends for each space in a home

Many people seek healthier lifestyles. It is an advantage for property interior designers to design trendy décors for the rich and the elite, who are in the lookout for defining characteristics within their residence. The living room and the bedrooms now revolve around recliners, settees, and smart home equipment that help you turn on or off lights, dim them, or regulate AC temperature. The minimalist showcases are trendy nowadays with a harmony of elements ruling the market. The colour preferences include trendy pastels and neutrals including Sage Green, Apricot, and Rose-Beige. Kitchens also boast of chalky and matte finishes that are soft visually.

Now interior designers are beginning to explore wellness through kitchen design including the use of sustainable materials, social designs that nourish family relationships, more transparency for food options with easier accessibility. Visual reminders of healthy ingredients also create awareness. Nowadays, indoor urban farming units are also quite popular. Simplicity in design has a therapeutic effect with an organised environment being calming for eyes and brain.

The bathroom has now evolved into a space devoted to wellness and personal wellbeing, helping urban people to relieve their stresses of modern life. Interior designers are keen to introduce small soft seating pieces, feature pendent lighting that allow dimming along with a feel of timber for a zen-like feel.

Some colour palettes are nourishing and include gentle pastels and neutrals. One of the most popular tones that will be in vogue is the neutral shade of apricot along with mint, watermelon, sage green, and burnt terracotta.

Design Influences

A trend forecaster's perspective ensures a specific period of change and they have to adhere to the conformist and the non-conformist attitude to design. Although the trends are experimental, one can expect creativity and minimalism to rule in due course and with multi-cultural tastes, multi-use spaces are bound to evolve with use of segmenting to render freedom for all inhabitants.
