Home Decorating and Design Trends for 2018
A new year means that new home decorating and
design trends are being featured in magazines, on blogs, and at home
shows. If you like to stay on top of the
newest ideas and get an itch to get to the paint store when you see the most
recent magazine layouts, here are just a few of things that are trending now.
●
In spite of what we see on house
flipping television shows, the open floor plan is losing some popularity. People are starting to define their open spaces with small
partitions, paint, and other clever ways.
●
Natural things like wood,
botanical prints and florals are still hot.
Wood is still king in the flooring department, and wallpapers and
fabrics will be featuring natural prints.
●
For kitchen countertops, quartz is
moving up the ranks because of its beauty and ease of care--it doesn’t need
sealing like marble and granite, and it’s also heat resistant.
●
Accent walls are painted in bold
colors, or covered with wood or bold-printed wallpapers.
●
Metallic pieces are making a
comeback. Finishes in brass and even
stainless black are taking over stainless steel and brushed nickel. Good thing that mixed metals are an acceptable
look.
●
Larger tile on floors and backsplashes
are coming in style, but the classic subway tile is still number one because of
the clean, classic look it has.
●
Concrete is showing up in unusual
places, like flooring and walls.
●
Smart technology is being
integrated into almost every room of the house, including the bathroom. Vanity mirrors with smart screens built in,
chromatherapy, and touch-free fixtures are becoming more popular and
affordable.
●
Trends in lighting are still
leaning towards the vintage look, but pendants are especially stylish, and
brass is the new brushed nickel.
The definition of trend, according to
Merriam-Webster, is “a prevailing tendency or inclination; a general
movement.” In other words, trends are
temporary, even if they last for years. Make it easy on yourself if you love a
new look, and try a few ideas in your home, but don’t undergo a complete
remodeling to meet today’s en vogue styles.
Stick to easily changeable trends, such as throw pillows, slipcovers,
paint, and wall coverings.
