2024 has finally arrived. It’s a year of thoughtfully chosen bold colors, a mix of pieces from different time periods, and a return to fluted details. Whether you plan to renovate your home or simply redecorate a room, here is a list of interior design trends for 2024 to serve as inspiration.
Fluted Details
Fluted details, characterized by its ribbed or grooved texture, trace back to columns in ancient Greece and Rome. Today they are turning up in accessories, lighting, furniture, and even cabinetry and walls.
Since grooves can be carved or molded into ceramics, glass, plaster, stone, and wood, the possibilities are seemingly endless. Big pieces include bathroom vanities, kitchen islands, and living room furniture. Fluted table lamps and planters are smaller options.
Jewel Tones
People are moving from the all-neutral palettes we’ve seen for several years to bold and saturated colors. A perfect way to incorporate richness is through the use of jewel tones.
Color trends are swinging toward light pink, soft blue, and touches of gold, emerald, and jade.
Secondary Spaces
More homeowners are creating extensions of their kitchens with secondary spaces. Back kitchens, butler’s pantries, are wet bars are a few examples.
These spaces allow for greater convenience and functionality when preparing and storing food. Here, you can house additional refrigeration, warming drawers, wine storage, and more.
Formal Dining Rooms
Many are now moving away from the once popular open-concept floor plan in favor of separating the dining room from the kitchen. A formal dining room allows homeowners to be more adventurous and choose designs that differ from nearby rooms. It also encourages people to disconnect from technology and spend more quality time with one another.
Vintage Pieces
You can expect to see highly personalized spaces, which goes in line with the uptick in antique and vintage shopping. Nowadays, homeowners want investment pieces that are well-built, sustainably crafted, and can be passed down. Interiors will be more eclectic as new pieces sit beside heirloom pieces and antiques.
Quiet Luxury
Quiet luxury, a design style that favors all things timeless, high quality, and custom, is once again having a moment. The key is to keep it simple. You can join in by:
- choosing sustainable and high-quality natural materials such as bouclé, cashmere, leather, linen, and velvet, as well as marble, travertine, and terra cotta.
- having furnishings like kitchen counters and vanity drawers custom-made.
- paying attention to small details like adding an upholstered bench in the hallway or using a marble tile in the laundry room. Previously underestimated areas of the home are enjoying a design uplift.
