2023 has just begun, and the new trends for this new year are certainly giving us the urge to renew our interior design. Here are some trends that will be everywhere this year.
The Japandi Style
This growing trend in recent years is more and more popular in the field of interior design. A design uniting the Scandinavian and Japanese style, the Japandi is a synonym of calm and softness. Neutral colours and natural materials like wood, linen, wicker and rattan are the key elements. The décor is purified by removing unnecessary and cumbersome objects. A minimalist environment with the perfect balance between aesthetics and functionality is therefore created.
Organic Curves and Shapes
Interior design has recently evolved towards trends inspiring comfort and well-being in your home. Consequently, straight lines and squares have left their place to curved and organic shapes. All the interior design areas are affected by this trend: furniture, windows, lighting, accessories as well as walls and archways. A curvy design allowing our home to come alive in an elegant assortment of volumes, enveloping us in a soft and comforting atmosphere. This year, the addition of curves in the conception of our spaces is clearly becoming an essential element of interior design.
Sustainable Design
Sustainable design, or eco-friendly design, is much more than a trend, this is the way of the future. This is designing a space where all elements are focused on products durability and preserving natural resources. Durable, non-polluting, recycled, recyclable and reusable materials are prioritized. Hardwood floors are an excellent example of this concept: manufactured from a natural, renewable and non-polluting material, and offering the possibility to be sanded up to 7 times. Hardwood floors have lifespan far superior other types of floor coverings. Just think of all the prestigious century-old houses that still have their original wood floors.
Green and Biophilic Design
Sage, olive or khaki, green tints will be everywhere in 2023. Associated to nature and plants, these rich and calming colours are blending beautifully in our décors. We combine it with accessories, furniture and natural materials to evoke the feeling of a hike in the woods in the comfort of our home. To connect more with nature, biophilic design is also taking more and more space in the interior design field. It is all about integrating plants in our spaces, whether they are in pots on the ground, on shelves or in hanging planters. In addition to their elegant look, plants are improving the air quality and even help to reduce stress. If you do not have a green thumb, you can choose elements of decoration with plant prints like posters or pillows.
It is important to remind ourselves that the beauty of a home is also manifesting in its unicity as well as the reflection of the personality of its occupants. Be inspired by trends without blindly following them. Use elements that you like and adapt them to your décor accordingly with your tastes, needs and budget. Do not be afraid to be daring and trust your creativity so you can create a space reflecting your image.
