The holidays are upon us, which can only mean one thing – 2017 is right around the corner. Whether you’re in desperate need of a redecorating project or you’d simply like to go a different direction after staring at the same four walls day in and day out, check out these top 17 interior design ideas for 2017.
Top 8 Interior Design Trends of 2017
1. Minimalistic bathrooms.
When it comes to the shape and size of the composition of the bathroom, the trend is shifting from “bigger is better” to more private, smaller spaces. However, smaller doesn’t necessarily mean less, and if you incorporate contemporary yet simplistic pieces, you needn’t worry about compromising style, comfort and functionality.
2. Back to nature.
The Nordic influence on interior design promises to be prominent in 2017. With its abundance of space, clear light and well-designed, simple furnishings, the key to accomplishing this natural look is the use of warm textures such as cork, hides, shearling, fur, paper and wood.
3. Modular furniture systems.
Enabled by modern technology, modular systems develop from both creativity and necessity and offer not only functionality but also ingenuity and a playful spirit. The most visible changes we will likely observe will be in bathroom design.
4. The art of reflection.
Are you a contemporary enthusiast? This is the 2017 design trend for you. The atmosphere is soft and friendly without being overly romantic and sweet. Modern furniture and accent pieces will have iridescent, transparent and cool mirrored effects for a young, fresh look. Rooms will appear relaxed, particularly in the bedroom, where linens will be the focus.
5. Retro-inspired furniture.
Will we ever truly leave the 60s and 70s behind us, or was the Stanley Kubrik version of the 2010s oddly prescient? In either case, love it or hate it, retro is back. Watch for curved-back chairs, shag rugs, accent pieces and lighting solutions and patterns that give off that retro vibe.
6. Strategic pops of color.
Only a few seasons ago, the trend was about using bright color to make bold statements. Now, bright colors will be featured in smaller quantities, mainly via a colored sofa, chair or accessories, with a less aggressive, softer color for the rest of the room. Painterly effects like color gradients and blending watercolors or artful geometry can achieve this airy, light look.
7. Jewel tones.
Jewel tones inspired by the cosmos, clouds, stars, space and metals will overtake the pastel shades of blue and pink that are currently having their day in the sun. Sheers, floaty silks, transparent fabrics and x-ray materials will create a soft romantic element to this 2017 interior design trend.
8. Bohemian moments.
When looking for accent pieces, choose handmade craftsmanship and vegetal-dyed products and consider the authentic artisanal quality of pieces that are made with other nontraditional techniques. These include basket works, hand weaves, hand-knotted carpets and inlaid mother-of-pearl products.
