With a new year comes new design trends!

Understated elegance and 70's influence is trending and I'm are here for it. !!!!

 

1. The return of color – Bold and moody color schemes are making a comeback! Gone are the days of everything white and bright or grey. Shades of brown have been dominating décor!  I know!! Browns??? not the browns of 2005!!  natural tones with terracotta hues 

2. Closed floor plans – Open concept has been the way to go for a very long time. Now you will see people preferring divided rooms as they’re working from home more. A separated kitchen, a closed off living area and my personal fav,  the formal dinning room and more closed concept spaces have become the norm.

3. Statement lighting – Lighting has become a whole mood! A fun powder room light fixture, layered lighting, as well as oversized lighting will serve as a focal point for design.

4. 1970’s influences  (my top fav) – A mix of old and new add character to a home! Gallery walls, funky kitchen décor, earthy color palettes, bold patterns, thrifted gems, and natural textures have become the forefront for 2023 homes.

5. Arches and curves – You’ll see design moving away from straight lines, sharp corners and edges, and squares to curved stairwells and rounded furniture.
