You’ve rung in the new year, your holiday decorations are looking a little tired and will soon be stored for another season, and you’re now faced with an onerous stretch of short days and long nights. Where’s the cheer for 2022? New décor trends, of course!
Since many of us are still spending much of our time at home, new trends and innovations have exploded on the home decorating scene as we strive to freshen our living spaces.
Connecting with Nature
Bringing the outside indoors can provide feelings of calm and comfort as well as give a sense of having escaped from your four walls. An indoor garden is integral to this esthetic (see “Interior Landscaping”). Adding to the atmosphere this year are natural materials such as stone, natural wood, and hand-woven rugs. A ‘nature nook’ can provide a perfect place for disconnecting from your ever-present electronics.
Modern Country Style
Today’s modern rustic style relies on wood floors and stone or wood ceiling beams to set the mood. Remember, you can always add imitation beams to your ceiling to create that country flair. Designers are pairing modern furniture with antiques and rustic elements to complete the look.
Curvy Furniture
If you’re ready to tote your old furniture to the curb and create a completely new look, the trend you don’t want to miss is furniture with round shapes. Curved seating is the hottest trend of 2022, with the shell armchair (unbeatable for beauty and comfort) making a roaring comeback.
Dark Wood Furniture
Thanks to a long trend in Scandinavian furniture and design, light wood furniture has been the go-to choice for the last few years. However, 2022 is bringing back the richness, elegance, and glamour of dark wood tones. Look for dark-toned furniture featuring accents of brass and black marble. So sophisticated!
Color Palette 2022
Looking to paint walls or reupholster furniture? The new year offers some exciting new color trends. Pastels continue to be popular for 2022 and can add a wonderful freshness to your space.
Designers are seizing on the newest Pantone color combination of yellow and gray. The colors harmonize wonderfully and can be used in a variety of ways.
If you have a modern, more minimalist spirit, this next trend might be for you. Designers are accenting their 90% white décor with 10% color. The look is timeless and sophisticated and provides a perfect foil for your stunning accessories.
