Explore the latest trends to beautify your home for years to come.
Pops of Color in Powder Rooms
Want to feature a bright color palette or vibrant wallpaper in your home? Powder rooms are the ideal place in your home to showcase bold color and larger-than-life prints. According to ElleDecor, “the powder room should be your home’s most visually exciting space. It’s where you and your decorator can go absolutely bananas. It’s also the perfect opportunity to experiment with bold paint colors as well as stylish mirrors, lighting, and fixtures.”
A dining room or living room covered in a botanical wallpaper or punchy paint color might be too big of a commitment, but a powder room is a fun way to experiment with a whimsical pattern. Onyx in white and honey color palettes have seen a recent resurgence as well, adding texture and warmth to small spaces for homes.
Dedicated Wellness Spaces
Another popular home trend is implementing areas for self-care. Yardzen reported a 45% increase in saunas and a 34% uptick in hot tubs as homeowners utilize their decks, patios, and backyards as sanctuaries.
Plunge pools are gaining popularity as a top addition to outdoor spaces. They require less space and less upkeep than a traditional full-size swimming pool and offer the perfect spot for a quick dip as well as being visually appealing. Since many people are using their homes as remote offices, it’s beneficial to have a zen-like location for a digital detox at the end of the day. Whether it’s a luxurious cedar sauna, dedicated meditation garden, or soaking tub, create a wellness hub to bring the spa experience home.
Art Deco Redux
If you love playful, geometric accents, you’re in luck – Art Deco has returned. According to The Spruce, “trend forecasters have long predicted that this decade might mirror the original Roaring 20s, and now, interior designers are calling it. Art Deco is back, and we’re going to see it even more in the coming months.” From metallic fixtures to fluted details, embrace this high-contrast aesthetic with luxurious elements. Since Art Deco pieces make a statement, implement a bold piece of artwork or accent table to your existing decor. Diana Viera, managing partner at custom kitchen and bath company ITALKRAFT, suggests combining elements of Art Deco with contemporary materials and color schemes to make the 100 year old style feel current.
Artistic Lighting Features
Lighting fixtures are ready for their close up. Oversized pendants and lamps are on track to be the stand-out features in any room. Ian Cameron from Cameron Design House says, “In 2023, lighting will be the focal point of any room design, with beautifully crafted, oversized and extravagant light fittings taking center stage – large and sculptural formations are here to stay.” This is a great opportunity to layer in adventurous pieces in unique materials. With the Art Deco renaissance in mind, mirrored brass lighting is expected to be very popular in coming months.
Layered lighting, which implements various sources such as warm lamps, mini pendants, and soft accent lighting, creates welcoming spaces. Lumens.com says “Using multiple light sources allows for a smooth transition from a bright room used to work in the daytime to a sophisticated space for entertaining in the evening, or a dim room for watching films. Altogether, ambient, task and accent lighting create a visually and functionally balanced room.
