The days of modern farmhouse, greige color palette, TV-centered living rooms and open concept living are on the decline. Interior design trends are continually changing. When designing a space, I am often asked, “What design trends are timeless (because we do not plan on making changes anytime soon)?” My answer is to go with what you are most attracted to, while also incorporating trends that are appealing.
Here is what I am seeing trending in home design for 2024:
Blues are a popular color choice this year. Whether it is incorporated into your furnishings, painted on the walls or cabinets, or used as a décor accent, you cannot go wrong with this color.
Herringbone is making a comeback in tile, flooring and fabric patterns. The distinctive shape adds visual interest and movement. The pattern is being installed both diagonally and vertically to create even more sophistication.
Character over cookie-cutter is a sure way to go with your décor. Consider whimsical and unexpected elements, quirky artwork, vintage accent chairs or artisanal pieces. Avoid mass market furnishings with safe color palettes or homogenous finishes.
In my opinion, design in 2024 is vibrant and one-of-a-kind. Make the design your own, create conversation around the décor you pick and enjoy the lack of gray!
