Interior design has been used thought history for humanity to create living spaces that were an inspiring and functional sanctuary. How we design and decorate our home is a direct way of artistic expression and creativity. Our homes and living spaces have a direct influence on our energy, our moods and our overall wellbeing.
As we head into the third year of a global pandemic, the importance our homes have and how that influences our daily lives is more evident than ever.
Here are some of the biggest home decor trends we will be seeing in 2022.
- More natural light and ventilation. Windows will remain large and open as we all seem to want to bring nature indoors.
- More bold colors and self-expression through color. We will start to see less whites and neutrals than the last few years. Green and nature inspired pallets especially are making a big statement.
- Curved furniture and sculptural nature inspired pieces. Think statement lighting, decorative object and even curved window frames and doorways.
- Floral patterns are quite popular at the moment. Found in tapestries, art, cushions and wallpaper.
- Darker, more moody kitchens are making a comeback. Say bye to the all white kitchen esthetic.
- Nature inspired décor, surfaces and accents. Stone walls, marble, wood, organic shapes in decorative elements.
- Essentially, anything that feels warm, welcoming and cozy is in yet it must serve a purpose.
- Large indoor plants remain extremely popular. Biophilic design is huge and this also ties in with the large windows and outdoor lighting trends we see, we all seem to desire this connection with nature.
- Black accents will remain popular in bathroom and light fixtures, as well as decorative elements.
- Sustainable materials and ecological products as we focus more on our overall health.
The beginning of the year is a great time to rethink some of your spaces and how you can improve them or just change things up a bit. Don’t be shy to experiment and get creative, dare to transform your home into a visual story.
