Five Interior Trends 2021

My Favourite 2021 Interior Design Trends

So, the new year always brings new interior trends, some I love…some not so much! I’ve condensed some of my favourite interior trends for the coming year…

Grandmillennial or a fancy word for granny chic, will be something to watch out for. A gorgeous style basically dressing your house like you granny’s house…sort of! Think large scale, old-fashioned wallpaper, lace tablecloths, velvet, clashing prints and tassled lampshades. Keep it fresh and modern by incorporating contemporary or mid century furniture.

Dried flowers and Cotton

An easy update and cost effective, dried flowers are a beautiful addition to your home. They come in a variety of colours and types…also they last forever….or at least until the trend is over

Boucle

Soft, tactile material that you normally see on your winter coat will be on your sofa instead. So… watch out for this. Maybe a gorgeous boucle sofa or chair loaded up with lots of cushions ready for your next Netflix series.

Home offices and Outside spaces

Obviously social distancing will unfortunately still be with us for a while, so home offices and sociable outdoor spaces are still going to be in the interior’s beeline.  Not much room for a separate office? Find a space anywhere in your home you could dedicate to one, incorporate a desk, storage, some lovely prints to look at and some plants for a bit of greenery for some earthy outside-in touches.

All you need for outdoor spaces is a sofa, waterproof mats, plenty of squishy cushions and a parasol to keep off the eventual rain and more optimistically…the sun!

Vintage

My favourite. Vintage in my eyes rarely goes away. Good quality pieces will always add beauty and sophistication to your scheme. Use your treasured vintage pieces alongside your modern furniture. Mix and match and add some statement lighting for fun. It’s so easy to update a sideboard with a modern lamp or painting.
