Are you looking to update your home’s interior but don’t know where to start?

It can also reflect changes in lifestyle, technology, and culture, allowing you to adapt your home to better suit your needs and preferences. Plus, if you’re not in your “forever home”, updating your home to reflect current interior design trends can increase its value and make it more appealing to potential buyers.

Here are 10 Trends That Took 2024 by Storm

These interior design trends allow you to reinvent your space while still allowing your personality to shine through.

  • Monotone Rooms

We’re not talking about having just an all-white room here (unless, of course, that’s your preference!). But there are many ways you can incorporate just one colour into a room in various hues. Take grey for example – this is a great colour to layer with and play with different shades, tones, textures, and materials to create a bold and eye-catching space. Monotone rooms can also give off the feeling of minimalism while remaining cozy and warm.

  • Bringing the Outdoors Indoors

Nature-inspired designs have particularly risen in popularity. It screams freshness, eco-friendliness, energy-boosting, and creativity. Plus, being in nature can improve our mental wellness and overall well-being, so why not continue to connect with nature indoors too? This could mean maximizing natural light, adding potted plants, introducing new colours to your walls, or changing up the decor to feature nature-inspired patterns.

  • Spa-Inspired Bathrooms

Who doesn’t love being pampered at a spa? They provide a peaceful and relaxing escape from our everyday stresses. This may be why spa bathrooms are rising in popularity – from saunas and cold plunges to whirlpool bathtubs and high-quality rainfall showerheads, you can promote relaxation and reduce stress and anxiety in the comfort of your own bathroom.

  • Vintage Lighting

Vintage trends may change regularly, but this particular one has always stuck around for a reason. Vintage lighting adds the perfect blend of nostalgia and modern charm that simply can’t be replicated otherwise.Vintage light pieces also typically feature intricate designs and superior craftsmanship and can add a great deal of warmth to any room, whether it’s a floor lamp, bedside lamp, or hanging pendant.

  • Textured Walls

Move over painted walls – textured walls are back! Many homeowners nowadays are looking for unique projects, ones that will really make their homes stand out or add depth and character to their rooms. One of the ways this can be accomplished is with textured walls in the form of textured wallpaper, stucco, plaster, wood, or tiles.

  • Smart Tech

It’s 2024, so it’s no surprise that technology has become a popular interior design trend that both enhances the functionality and aesthetics of a space. For example, smart lighting systems can be programmed to adjust based on natural light levels or time of day, creating a more comfortable and energy-efficient space. Smart thermostats can regulate the temperature of a room to keep it comfortable without wasting energy. Voice-controlled assistants like Amazon Alexa or Google Home can also be integrated into a home’s design, allowing for hands-free control of various smart devices and systems.

  • Multipurpose Spaces

In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing world, having multipurpose rooms allows homeowners to make the most of their square footage and adapt to different needs and activities. Multipurpose spaces provide flexibility and functionality to living spaces and reduce the need for unnecessary rooms.

  • Curves & Arches

Whether in the form of furniture like couches or coffee tables or decor such as mirrors or rugs, curvy furniture or arched entryways can bring a sense of movement and flow to your space. Curved shapes and lines soften the sharp angles and straight lines typically found in interior design, creating a more inviting, comfortable, playful and dynamic environment.

  • Small Details Make a Big Difference

The more detail you add to smaller aspects of your interior design, like trim, moulding, cabinet hardware, or millwork, the more character will be brought to your space. Small details can be added anywhere – your ceilings, staircase, archways, cabinetry, etc.
