For interior designers, 2018 was a year that expressed some different decoration patterns and timeless pieces. However, 2019 is already here, and the approach interior designers are taking is entirely different from the previous years. To get ahead of the curve, here are some of the best 2019 interior design ideas that you can incorporate in your home.
1. Using Natural Wood
Interior designers in 2019 are embracing the rustic and organic feel that is brought about by the use of natural wood. Regardless of whether it is polished floorboards, roughly hewn coffee tables, or striped timber ceilings natural wood gives a room warmth. One specific area that is favorite is the kitchen. The traditional white-walled kitchens are replaced with a Scandinavian look, and the cabinets, fridge surrounds, and pantries incorporate wood surfaces. Stepping away from the décor observed in 2018 that was full of tech items, 2019 is combining natural materials such as wood to provide an organic and serene ambiance to any space.
2. Use Of Richer Color Palettes
Some advantages come with using muted colors such as making a room feel less overwhelming. However, in 2019 designers are embracing bolder colors. By using more vibrant hues in a house, the muted furnishing and decorative décor become more recognizable.
3. Use of Curved Furniture
One design idea that is quickly catching on is the use of furniture with a fluid shape. This trend resembles the furniture from the ’70s and ’80s and designers are happy to raise this trend back from the dead. Curves and soft angles give tables, sofas, and chair a more appealing look. Designers are tired of the rigid rectangular and square furniture and are heading towards round pieces with smooth fabrics.
To make it even better, forget about the old dull colors associated with furniture. Funky colors are very well recognizable. How about considering a curved coffee table or a hot pink sofa?
4. Using Frosted Glass Doors
Frosted glass doors are much more beneficial than their widespread use in bathrooms for privacy. They can help in opening up spaces, creating a comfortable and flowing atmosphere and letting in light. Designers are incorporating the frosted glass in areas where wood, stone or curtains would otherwise be used for either windows, doors or even walls.
Frosted glass provides a rather modern alternative that is brighter, warmer and natural when compared to other contemporary designs.
5. Ceilings that give off a Statement
It is no longer an extra in design. Using an accent ceiling introducing a surprise element to a room. Also known as the fifth wall, good design on it can make a place memorable and feel unique. Regardless of the color, the wallpaper design and the type of material used, to get a stand-out statement ceiling the room furnishing and walls have to be maintained as neutral as possible.
6. Painting the Walls Black
Using black on a feature wall is a trend that is on the rise. If you are comfortable with the color, you can use it in the whole room. However, you have to consider the natural light in the place. It works best for rooms that have ample light since it will not become too dark. As well, if the walls are painted white, it can be applied to the interior doors to give a contrast.
To bring about a sense of drama and elegance, you can as well use subtle hints of black together with natural colors.
7. Newer Couch Ideas
The formal and rigid design practices have all come to an end. 2019 is becoming a year where rules are not followed, and creativity is strikingly out in the open. As such, having the standard couch in the living room is an old principle as designers are incorporating sleeker and newer couch designs. How about getting a bench seating, with chairs facing each other or a settee or a chaise?
By getting chairs that face each other, your room will look more inviting and have an intimate feel. A settee, on the other hand, gives the place an air of sophistication.
8. Personalizing Spaces
One design trend that is slowly taking over is by owning your space. DIY designs are taking over as everyone looks to give their rooms a personal touch and character. By personalizing one’s own space, you can leave a mark in your own home.
