New year, new home. Time to bring your interior up to date! Dive into the interior design trends of 2019.
Interior design trends: terrazzo
Move over, marble. This year, terrazzo is the material of choice to give your home a trendy look. Where marble has been incredibly popular in recent years for kitchen countertops, walls and accessories, in 2019 this is entirely the case for the speckled natural stone. From poured floors to entire bathrooms or a few subtle accessories: terrazzo can and is everywhere this year.
Interior design trends: abstract shapes
In a stylish interior, geometric, abstract shapes are a must this year. With some nice abstract accessories, you can immediately give your home a contemporary look. Think of vases, flower pots and pillowcases. You will also see rugs with geometric patterns coming back a lot in 2019, in all colors and sizes. So time to start looking for your ideal one!
Interior design trends: sustainable & natural materials
It ain’t easy being green, Kermit the Frog once said. Nothing could be further from the truth today: ecological materials are hip and ubiquitous. Not on board with the trend yet? High time to jump on the bandwagon! With furniture made of cork, bamboo or recycled fabrics, you’re not only right on trend, you’re also doing the planet a big favor. Sustainable for the win!
Interior design trends: Contrasts
Spice up your interior by making clever use of contrasts. When you play with contrasting colors, textures and materials, you add depth to your home and create a sense of space. Then by clashing different styles, you give your interior a quirky touch. So this year, think black and white, old and new, minimalist and bombastic. Opposites attract.
Interior design trends: Round shapes
Back to the seventies! To add a playful touch to a modern interior, you can opt for furniture in all sorts of rounded shapes. You will see these everywhere in 2019 in all styles. Elegant bucket seats in jewel tones or sleek and minimalist in black and white. As long as there is a corner off somewhere – got it? -, you’re in the right place.
Interior design trends: gallery in the home
Have you often broken your head over where exactly you will hang that one painting? The solution is there: in 2019, just hang everything together on one wall. That way you can create a personal gallery, just like that in your home. Mix and match all possible shapes, styles and colors for a playful result or go for one defined style with black and white if you prefer to keep it a little more sober.
Interior trends: Imperfection & personal touch
Last but not least, nothing like a home that completely matches your personality. In 2019, this is the norm even more than usual. You can only create such a personal interior by coloring outside the lines and deviating from the typical I-bought-everything-at-Ikea living room. Search your grandmother’s attic, scour thrift stores or give your kitchen an eye-catching lick of paint. Perfect is boring!
