Decorating Trends for 2021

Looking to decorate your home or business but not sure how? We’ve done all the hard work for you and compiled it to create the perfect guide to the biggest and best decorating trends for 2021.

Is less really more?

We’ve all heard the saying less is more but how true is it when it comes to decorating our homes and places of work? It seems that more and more homeowners, interior designers and painters and decorators are turning towards the minimal look with clear spaces and less furniture and with this a more serene and welcoming home. After the hectic year, we have all endured we want our homes to be places of calm, where we can forget the worries of the world and relax and this seems to have led to us purging our homes of unnecessarily clutter whilst at the same time keeping it cosy and inviting. Hence the uprise in neutral colours, simple lines and house plants all resulting in timeless beauty.

Statement Pieces

Statement Pieces are a great way to incorporate your unique style into a space whilst still embracing the minimal look. Whether you are decorating a home or a business a statement piece can show off your personality or brand and it may even be a conversation starter. From a lavish sofa or a chandelier to a statement feature wall, your statement piece is the focal point of the room, like Beyonce in Destiny’s Child you want it to stand out and this is even better achieved when the rest of the room follows the statements lead.

When talking about statement colours designers and decorators usually suggest the rule of three which recommends your statement colour appear three times. For example, you may have a statement sofa in purple so you should try to find two other accessories in the same colour to bring a sense of balance.

Paint

It’s truly wonderful how a splash of paint can transform a room and when it comes to painting 2021 is turning out to be a year of warm, rich comfort colours such as bronzes and browns. It seems that people are opting for earthy shades that offer our rooms a sense of tranquillity. These warm tones such as rust and caramel shades that are often found in wood are particularly popular in bedrooms and mix well with pastel shades such as peony pink. These paint colours are right on trend with the minimal and cosy look that seems to be taking 2021 by storm.

Whilst it seems that tranquillity is here to stay when it comes to our decorating that’s not to say that we have forgone the colour. Bold colours like forest green, deep navy blue, yellow and pink are high on the list of trending paint colours. These colours offer a sense of drama, fun and high energy we can’t deny that these things are high on our bucket lists right now.

Grandmillennial

Grandmillennial, never heard of the term? Not to worry, this new style is the combination of old-style decors such as drapery and that floral wallpaper that your grandma has with modern design. This bold and fun style is full of personality and heavily features classical designs, antique patterns and ruffles and it’s making its way through our modern homes.
