Starting a new Year is the time in which many people look for change. Whether it be starting a new fitness routine or eating better with a New Years Resolution, January is the month to switch things up and it shouldn’t stop at home.
In fact, over the next month or so, our home will be getting completed gutted and revamped into new styles. Oldrids & Downtown, retailer of
bedroom furniture, have predicted just what the trends look like for home design in 2018.
Choose A Colour That Will Stand The Test of Time
With green being a popular colour in 2017, representing refreshment and revitalisation, which a lot of people could relate to during that time, and the rustic and industrial looks being so loved by many, it seems that metallics will be taking over into 2018 and gold and brass both make a come back into fashion.
Less is more with this up and coming trend – Golden legs of a table accompanied with a white top will be the talking point of all the dinners you host, for instance. Going for a minimalist look with a pop of gold to finish off.
Following the return of the colour gold, it is certain that the 70s will be an influential decade for the upcoming year too– so expect a return of wooden furniture, long motel-like mirrors and bold dark colours.
White kitchens will be a thing of the past as touches of colour will make a play More and more homeowners will find themselves mixing and matching with materials and colours to give their kitchens a bit more character.
Bespoke Will Never Go Out of Style
When you’re trying to refine your home decor and add the finishing touches to your space, it’s important to take a bespoke approach. You don’t want your home to look like anyone else’s, so it’s worth investing some extra time to make it truly unique to your own style preferences and personality. With made to measure curtains, you can choose a set of curtains that are perfectly proportioned for each room in your home. Instead of taking a chance with a set of curtains that have been pre-made, you should opt for a bespoke touch. With this type of approach you can be assured that your curtains and blinds will fit your living room, kitchen and bedroom to perfection!
It’s safe to say that 2018 looks like it’s going to be the year of change if these trends are anything to go by. It’s never too late to be a trendsetter!
