In 2021 you will see natural textures, warmer cozy tones with pops of lighter color. Trends are going toward welcoming, relaxed and more organic looks. These can be used with warmer whites instead of bright whites.
I also love Sherwin Williams’ new ‘Urbane Bronze’, which is “the new black”. This color pairs well with neutrals, bone whites and modern earthy greens.
If you are thinking of a kitchen refresh or renovation, all white cabinets are still on trend but are being mixed with lighter wood for a two-toned effect.
Bring character into your backsplash using textured tile.
We will also be seeing more rounded furniture with earthy textures like this Patricia Caned Chair by Ballard Designs. The caning gives it a Boho style that goes well with today’s mid-century pieces.
Floor plans with also be changing. In past years we have designed completely open living spaces. Now, because people are working from home and need to create semi-private offices, playrooms, reading nooks, etc., we will see rooms being divided by French or pocket doors. These create separation without adding actual walls.
Get ready to update your outdoor living spaces as well! People are spending more time at home, and that means utilizing both interior and exterior locations.
Mixing vintage or thrift finds with your modern pieces will give your home a curated look and show off your personality.
Natural textures in rugs and lighting will give your space an organic look.
With more people working from home, there is a need to make your home workspace more permanent. There are several ways to go about this, including using a console table or a vanity, or even repurposing a closet.
You can expect to see new bathroom innovations as home owners focus more than ever on self-care. Touchless fixtures, lighting motion sensors, and bathroom floor heating options are becoming more prevalent in the marketplace.
