Home Design Trends For 2020!

I think we all can agree that 2020 has been a year… A year of incredible design trends that is!

We all know trends are forever changing and this year is no exception.

The ‘Unkitchen’ kitchen

I hear you say, what is the ‘Unkitchen’ kitchen? Well, it integrates small elements of the rest of the home, such as bespoke cabinetry or a beautiful runner. It merges the kitchen into the rest of the living space.

Curves and Arches

It is no secret I love my curves and arches! Arches work in modern homes and traditional homes because they add a feminine touch and create softness in spaces otherwise filled with hard surfaces. They also have a bit of an old world feel to them and I personally think they just create warmth and character in the home.

Neutral Tones

Another favourite of mine is neutral tones! Think beige, stone, earthy greens and tans are all a hit in 2020! Mix and match textures and fabrics to create a beautiful and warm space. Don’t be afraid to play around with different types of ceramics, grainy, matte and glazed.

VJ Boards

Who loves paneling! I love paneling! It is a relatively simple and cost-effective way to give a house architectural depth without knocking down any existing walls. They have become increasingly popular for people trying to create the Hamptons look because the vertical lines create length and height making the home appear more modern. Add em to your lounge room, hallway, kitchen or even living space!

Fake plants!

Yep – I said it, meant it, here to represent it! Fake plants are the way to go if you’re wanting to create an inviting space that feels light and welcoming. Think olive plants, fiddle leaf figs, cactus and trailing pothos. Faux plants are low maintenance and when styled with the right accessories can make a room pop!
