We are already in the first quarter of the year, the ideal time to start planning the rest of the year ahead. The beginning of the year brings with it the idea of a new life and, often, it is the lever we need to start that new project, the new diet, the change of city or even the total transformation of the decoration of our home.
The changes can be challenging, especially to start, since they imply leaving our comfort zone. But a new interior design project will bring you a breath of fresh air and, most likely, an extra motivation to initiate other equally positive changes in your life.
However, the year 2020 brings some unusual, but at the same time truly charming and exciting interior design trends: pastel colors of ice cream, geometric patterns and a reinvention of Scandinavian style.
Today we want to leave you with some suggestions to get inspired by the decoration of your new home, your new life.
Neutral Color
This year, neutral colors will appear again. What can we say the neutral design style uses classic and serene tones? Above all, neutral design emphasizes tranquility and comfort. But if you’re thinking, “neutral is so simple.” Then you are wrong for several reasons. Neutral colors are white with cool or warm colors. We mainly look at shades of gray and beige. According to the prediction of 2020 that warm neutrals will gradually appear and cool neutrals will gradually disappear. Don’t underestimate the power of neutral decoration. This would be a great choice for your walls, but they are also a great choice for furniture including sofas and bedding.
Adding ethnic notes to the wall
The concept of globalization has an increasingly strong presence in our society. Today we are all just a click away and that privileged access is radically changing the way we live. The consumer is more traveled and informed and wants to show this aspect in their homes with their bold decorating choices.
Some of the most prominent designers have been inspired by Asian and African cultures and their tribes. These notes are present almost everywhere and that is exactly why they have become so modern and accessible to everyone.
Think Green
If you are looking for the ideal balance between modern life and traditional values, then focus on green spaces and evocative objects. And, a bucolic atmosphere can transform your everyday life into real anti-stress therapy. By keeping the garden inside the house, you can reconnect yourself with the environment. They will invade your interiors with all kinds of positive intentions and you don’t even have to think about watering them.
Choose the sofa that suits you
The choice of the sofa is one of the most difficult things to include in interior decoration, since it involves studying many characteristics: length, color, shape, etc. Ranging from a simple sofa to one with removable corners, from leather to velvet, this is the essential element of a living room. Do you prefer to transform your existing sofa rather than buy a new one? Well, then replace the feet with casters or add wooden feet. If nothing exists then change the cover, color, and material to create an impression of novelty in your living room. Arrange cushions of a variety of sizes and colors.
Bohemian and Oriental spirit
The oriental style of the 1960s and 1970s has returned to fashion for interior decoration. Go for warm colors such as orange, or purple mixed with a little green or turquoise for a Moroccan atmosphere, or shades of blue and white for a Tunisian atmosphere. Prefer low type furniture such as a low sideboard, bench, nesting tables. On the floor, put a large Oriental rug, large cushions, and scatter lanterns, vases. Finalize your decor with a beautiful pendant lamp to create an atmosphere subdued.
Go for contemporary type
If your living rooms are large enough, you can try a contemporary style decoration. Indeed, this kind of interior decoration is purified, aesthetic and minimalist while remaining functional. Therefore, you can go for multifunctional furniture and decorative objects in natural or original materials such as earth, metals or transparent materials such as glass or plexiglass. And, contrary to certain received ideas, the colors linked to modern style is not limited to black and white! For your walls, you can completely choose beige, anthracite or a more intense color like blue, pink, or even yellow, if the heart tells you!
The suspensions
To put in all your rooms, the pendant light is the trendy touch that will finish your decoration. Above a kitchen island or your dining table, in your bathroom or even in the hallway, the different types of suspension will enhance the place. You can consider as many styles as you can such as Rattan, industrial light bulbs or metal lighting bulbs.
