If you are looking to remodel, redesign, or just give your living area a bit of new life in 2019, you’ll want to know what styles and themes are popular now. Here are a couple of current design ideas to incorporate into your new living area to modernize its style.
Natural Wood: The incorporation of natural wood into your interior will add texture and help provide a warm rustic feel that contrasts with the technology-based world we live in.
Plants: Aside from the splash of color, plants project a healthy, sustainable feel that help us connect with nature.
White Walls: A perfect contrast to natural textures, bold white walls will brighten up a room and will make your natural, rustic elements stand out without feeling cluttered.
Statement Ceilings: Use this often overlooked fifth wall to add personality to a room using color or inclusion of natural materials such as a beam or shiplap.
By combining wood elements with plants, the room feels natural and airy.
Sustainable fabrics: We live in an environmentally conscious age and using sustainable fibers allows you to sleep easy knowing you aren’t contributing to the problem.
Mixed metals: In keeping with the same sustainability and rustic themes, incorporating a mix of metals allows you to create a contrast in color and texture to the other natural elements.
Mixing old and new design: Combining a modern, minimalist look with older design elements creates a calm contrast that projects a feeling of warmth and unique character.
Warm minimalism: Minimalism has been a growing trend for some time now but has suffered from a perception of being cold and uncomfortable. By incorporating natural colors, materials, and textures to minimalist concepts you can create a space that is functional, clean and airy that is also warm and inviting.
Biophilia: By incorporating nature and natural materials we can create a comfortable contrast to our modern technology-driven world. Handmade elements add character and the handiwork makes people feel more in touch with nature and the craftsmanship of the piece.
Light-colored wood floors: In the same vein as using white walls light colored floors will make a room brighter and airier, giving a minimalist feel.
A specific interior design style we can look to that fits all these trends is the Modern Farmhouse style. Modern Farmhouse provides a minimalist feel with added character, personality, and warmth. By combining large, open areas with natural textures, materials, colors, and elements, Modern Farmhouse brings the rustic feel of nature inside with a calming sense of space and openness.
Consider these interior design trends while planning out your next renovation, and if the list above of interior design trends for 2019 seems a bit daunting, just look to the Modern Farmhouse design style for a warm, rustic, yet modern look for your new living area.
