With each new year come new interior design trends and fads to consider and even reconsider so you can update your home with confidence and ease. Last year we saw a rise in client requests for rose gold, subway tiles, and exposed lighting as these were some of the top home decor trends of 2018.

And as our interior designers recently noted, 2019 is going to bring with it some fantastic home design trends to take note of. Read on and watch out for these interior design trends that our senior designers think will make their way into your home.

Artisanal fixtures

Like customized pieces many interior designers have noticed a shift in lighting and that more of our clients are partial to fixtures from local artist and small businesses alike to create unique environments.

Artisan fixtures with a hand-crafted feel will better personalize your home, and like natural elements, they’ll help shift the eye’s focus around the room to create a comforting and inviting feel.

Richer Color Palettes

Though muted colors can help you avoid making spaces feel overwhelming and visually heavy, our interior designers believe that 2019 will be a year where bolder colors are preferred.

Richer hues throughout your home can make your more muted and natural-hued furnishings and decorative elements instantly pop and feel anew. Lookout for dramatic reds, statement pinks, bold yellows, and lush greens.

Brass Decor

2019 is setting up to be a year where we say goodbye to stainless steel, chrome, and polished nickel, and welcome brass accents back into our homes.

Brass is a surprisingly warm and subtle alternative to the expected steel accents and will be sure to add an everyday sense of elegance to even the simplest of spaces.

Tonal reds

The past few years we have seen both or interior designers and clients gravitate towards cooler colors such as blues and greens, so we are excited that warmer tones are going to be in for the new year.

Tonal reds are a great way to add complimenting contrast while providing the warmth that will be sure to make your home feel more inviting and energizing.

Geometric Patterns

Similar to floral patterns and brass decor, incorporating geometric patterns is no new trend. Yet for the new year geometric patterns are expected to become a dramatic presence. Colors will be bolder with oversized patterns.

This is a trend that will help make a bold statement in any room. A chic and easy way to incorporate this pattern into your home decor is by adding geometric throws.

Agate Wallpaper

Many seem to stay away from wallpaper in general, yet 2018 was a year that saw wallpaper used in more homes. 2019 will be no different, and it is all in print.

Agate wallpaper is making a splash for its pops of colors, and its natural ununiformed lines and colors perfectly marry both the bold and natural trends we expect for 2019.

Matte Finishes

From beauty products to customized cars, technological advancements have made matte finishes all the more alluring and viable. Compared to the dramatic effect that high-shine finishes conjure, matte finishes lend furnishings a more relaxed, however, futuristic appeal.

Take this sleek console brought to life by a sensational yellow and periwinkle color combo. In a more traditional color combo it would have come off as standard. And if it were finished with a high-gloss effect, it would come off as overly loud. Instead, thanks to its matte patina, it’ll lend any room a quiet sense of dignity and grace while remaining ultra-cool.

For a similar effect, look for matte finished furnishings that boast unexpected hues and silhouettes, or go for classic styling as when a piece is finished with a matte technique, it will remain forever-cool.

Canopy Beds

Though they haven’t been in vogue since the late ’80s, we’ve seen a steady rise in clients requesting updated takes on grand canopy beds. It could be because hotel-inspired bedroom suites have been all the rage over the past decade, or it very well could be that people are seeking out the ultimate comforting oasis.

Whatever the case, minimally minded canopy beds are readily available in an endless array of options. And since they usually boast a slim silhouette and elements, they can now fit in almost any room with ease without coming off as overbearing and unnecessary.

To make one work in your bedroom, follow suit and source a canopy bed that is quiet and slim to ensure that it won’t take up too much space or ever go out of style.
