Home Décor Trends to Embrace Right Now!

Home décor trends come and go each year, some trends stay with us for a longer period of time and some trends are just too experimental that we tend to get over them pretty soon (remember the lava lamps). Home décor trends should be able to pass through the test of time because revamping home décor is no easy feat. Every new year brings in new décor trends that aim to augment our interiors and make them more stylish yet functional. Everyone wants to keep their surroundings upbeat, fresh, interesting and stylish by following not all but at least some of the new trends in home décor. Things like wall art décor, lighting fixtures, upholstery and window treatments not only help spice up the space with newest fashion trends but also cost low.

In order to find inspiration for your new renovation process or revamping project one needs to be sure which trends are on their way out and which trends are here to stay for longer. Basically home décor trends are divided into two parts; macro trends and micro trends. The macro trends are the ones which will last you for the whole decade and the micro ones are the small, minimal changes that can be an effect of the events of a past year like the global pandemic, a great TV show or just a fad. Trends like wool rugs can always make their way to our home décor as they’re part of the macro trend.

If you’re wondering which décor trends you should ditch this year and which ones you should embrace right now, we have compiled the perfect guideline for you to follow. These décor trends will make sure that your home décor looks fresh, welcoming, full of charm, zesty and lively. Now you don’t have to make way for each one of the trends suggested here, pick and choose the ones that work best with your design elements, style and preference. So let’s start!

Rounded Furniture is the Next Big Thing

Hard edges, stiff backs and formally carved sofas, armchairs and sectionals are a thing of the past, the décor trend that you need to embrace is the rounded furniture. It provides that extra comfort, support, and alluring feel that makes you feel relaxed. The soft, feminine vibe of the rounded furniture makes it ideal for binge-watching your favorite TV shows or just lounging in the comforts of a sofa that has no strict lines or edges. If you look around at décor elements be it lamps, furniture, chairs or even wall art décor, it is ditching the right angles and embracing the soft, flexible and curved structure.

Go For a Minimalistic Approach

Having a minimalistic approach means that you’re aligned with the concept that less is more. You don’t feel the urge to stuff in everything together, rather you believe in bringing together quality stuff that speaks for itself. In order to nail this look, you need to incorporate natural materials, timeless framework and classic colors. If a minimalistic style of décor is up your alley, then you would require modern and relevant solutions to make it work for you. Opt for at least one furniture item that is created by a designer to bring that look of creativity. A color palette should be soft and neutral, retrain from impulsive shopping and resign to only necessary items like a huge wall art décor or wool rugs to bring everything together nicely.

Introduce Brass to your Décor

Now this trend is on a continuous high and has managed to hold the hype around itself for almost 2 years now, so if you have been losing out on joining the bandwagon of brass, now is your time to embrace it. Brass has a metallic feel to it that brings the much needed drama, charm and eccentricity to the décor. You can go ham with it by placing a sofa or a huge mirror made from brass and make it your focal point or you can add accents of it throughout the décor. Pair up a brass side table with your sectional, place a table lamp made from brass on your entrance console or put candle stands, photo frames or coffee tables made from brass on different areas of the home.

Make Room for a Formal Dining Room

2020 has taught us a great deal of things and one such thing is the importance of family, friends and relations. Although open floor plans have been on a surge, it has truly gained momentum this year. Homeowners are now ready to entertain the idea of a room solely allocated for meal times. You don’t have to make the formal dining area an enclosed space which is off-limits.  It should be a space which is delineated in such a way that makes it purposeful yet it doesn’t make the home feel congested or jammed.

Life Size Lighting Fixtures

Now we all know what role a good light plays in the outlook of any room. It makes any space feel lively, energetic, muted or subdued, depending on the color, dimness, height and other factors. Lighting fixtures like scones help provide uniformity to the whole décor and also emits necessary light. But the new trend which you should be ready to embrace is the installation of oversized, huge monstrous light fixtures that demands immediate attention of the guests and looks quirky, out-of-the-box and so stylish. Opt for statement pieces in not only the main areas but also in some unexpected places like powder rooms, staircase, and entrance or bedroom corner.

Wallpaper Wonderfulness Continues

Wallpapers have been a staple go-to of many people to make their walls lively, full of charm and a perfect complement and extension to their décor. People have wholeheartedly embraced wallpapers and I doubt that they are going to stop on only the walls. I think we can expect designers to style other places with wallpapers like ceilings, cabinets, closets and other unforeseen places and make the wallpaper trend soar higher. If you have been shying away from wallpapers in the past then now is your time to incorporate it in your décor and make a statement with your walls.

Ending

Décor trends evolve over the years but one cannot always keep up with every changing trend, so be sure to decorate your home with trends that are ahead of time. These décor trends will last with you for quite a while so embrace them passionately.
