Interior design is constantly evolving, and 2022 turned out to be an exciting year for the industry. These are some of the top interior design trends from last year.
Sustainable Materials and Environmental consciousness is on the rise, more and more designers are turning to sustainable materials such as bamboo, cork, and reclaimed wood to create beautiful, eco-friendly spaces. Another trend was biophilic design. This is the practice of incorporating natural elements into interior spaces to create a more harmonious environment. We saw more living walls, natural light, and water features in interior spaces in 2022. Bold colors such as deep jewel tones and bright neon’s made a comeback in. These colors add drama and personality to a space and can be used as an accent or as the main color scheme.
In the past, it was common to use one metal finish throughout a home. However, in 2022, designers were mixing and matching different metals to create a layered and unique look. To add to this mixed metal finish, vintage and antique pieces are becoming more popular as homeowners look for ways to add character and history to their homes. These pieces can be used as statement pieces or blended seamlessly into a space for a unique and timeless look.
As we could have predicted, Smart technology is becoming increasingly integrated in interior design. The industry saw more home automation systems, voice-activated assistants, and smart lighting in homes in 2022.
Overall, 2022 was an exciting year for interior design, with a focus on sustainability, natural elements, and unique, personalized spaces.
