After spending more time at home than ever this past year, you’re likely itching for a change of scenery. Good news: A few easy swaps can make any room feel brand new. From plush fabrics and warm hues to energizing bursts of colour, this year’s decor trends are all about creating a happy, cozy space you’ll be excited to spend (even more) time in.
Trend #1: Colourblocking
Bold and joyful, this colourful look embraces a rainbow of hues in an orderly yet abstract way. When bringing home the trend, think less “paint splatter” and more “colour inside the lines.” Go all out with a painted wall, or pick a few colourblocked accessories that work with your existing colour palette.
Trend #2: Cozy Textures
This year is all about getting cozy. Dress up your home with faux fur, plush shearling and nubbly wools for an irresistibly warm atmosphere that makes you want to curl up and stay a while.
Trend #3: Earth Tones
From sandy desert beiges to rich clays, Mother Nature knew what she was doing when she picked her palette. Warm up your interiors with a range of soothing hues that will stand the test of time.
