From coastal colours to mixed metallics and dramatic lighting, here are 5 of the hottest trends this spring.
A modern twist on an old classic! Whilst bold, dramatic and opulent, the Modern Art Deco trend is also celebrated for its timeless and enduring elegance. Offering architectural shapes, rich bold finishes and a sophistication that resonates with homeowners that are seeking something luxurious. You can incorporate it into your interiors via furniture, lighting and even tiles.
Have coastal colours ever really gone away? The versatile coastal trend has long been a popular choice in the interior design world, capable of immediately transporting us to the great British seaside, wherever we are located. Introducing calming colours such as blue, green, sandy beige and soft neutrals will instantly create a relaxing atmosphere in your home, whilst window shutters are a classic and timeless option for exuding the popular ‘coastal aesthetic’.
Minimalism is taking a rest for spring and it’s all about bold, loud patterns, such as chintz. Chintz incorporates vintage floral patterns with a contemporary design. You could incorporate the trend via floral lampshades, vibrant wallpaper or colourful bedding, but ensure you mix chintz with more contemporary elements to avoid the space appearing too overwhelming.
Homeowners are becoming more experimental with their design choices, with a trend for dramatic lighting emerging. Lighting is no longer an afterthought and homeowners are making more considered decisions when it comes to decorating and refurbishing. From bold silhouettes to textural designs, lighting is a powerful design tool, with trends suggesting we try mixing and matching styles to create a unique space with an eclectic ambience.
Mixed metallic interiors can add depth, visual interest and a touch of luxury, which might explain their popularity when using them within the home. Metallics are a popular choice for bathroom hardware, lighting and accessories due to their aesthetic appeal, durability and functionality. The trend for mixed metallics also challenges more traditional design rules, allowing for a more adventurous approach to interior design, something which seems to be an overarching trend in itself this spring.
