OK, summer may not officially be over until Sept. 22, but it’s not too early to turn our thoughts to autumn—and that includes interior design. We’re looking at a few trends that are expected to make a splash this fall.
monorooms
Tone-on-tone decor is having a moment. Worried about a room becoming boring? Focus on layering different textures, materials and silhouettes to make a space more dynamic.
vintage lighting
Add some old school allure to any room through the lighting. Whether it’s choosing a classic chandelier for timeless elegance or something funkier with mid-century charm, the options are endless and adaptable to any style. Floor lamps and pendants are especially on trend.
stripes
Geometric patterns are turning up in interior design, and bold stripes are making an impact in decor. They are timeless and simple, easily being introduced into any room. It’s also a great way to add drama to a black-and-white color palette.
maximalism
Tired of minimalism and beige or white interiors? Maximalism is your answer. Make a statement by embracing bold colors, bright patterns and eclectic decor—then mixing them all together. After all, more is more. Make your home a celebration that embraces fun and over-the-top style.
wood paneling
Looking to make your home warm and cozy this fall? Consider wood paneling. While often considered dated, it can be paired with modern furniture to create an elegant but welcoming space. If adding actual paneling isn’t an option, you can achieve the vibe with paint or wood veneer wallpaper.
unique tile
Tiles make a statement, whether on the floor, wall or both! Dramatic colors, unique shapes, unexpected layouts, bold patterns and handmade materials are adding a tactile quality to bathrooms, kitchens and beyond. Flooring and wall tiles can make just as big a splash as a feature wall.
curved furniture
Organic shapes and curvilinear designs are all the rage, and that extends to furniture. Whether it’s a sofa, chaise or coffee table, these pieces can help create a harmonious and inviting atmosphere.
peel & stick wallpaper
Bold wallpaper is an easy way to add drama and style to any room. Want to make it even easier? Peel-and-stick wallpaper is the DIY design solution. Application is a breeze, and you can find options in all the trening patterns like geometric prints, landscape scenery, abstract shapes and human and animal figures.
