Home decor trends, just like fashion trends, tend to come and go in cycles, with some new colors and styles taking over the market and others gradually fading away. While we can’t exactly predict what home decor will look like in 2022, we can look at the current trends to get an idea of where things are headed in terms of design, color, and style for the upcoming years. Here are our top picks for the most exciting home decor trends for 2022.
3D Wallpaper
If you’re looking to make a big impact with your home decor, 3D wallpaper is sure to do just that. This design trend has been popping up all over, but it’s more than just a photo, it’s an actual product that can be purchased and installed by any homeowner. The unique texture of 3D wallpaper adds depth and dimension to any room, while also providing a fun way to customize your space.
Minimalist lamps
Minimalist lamps are more popular than ever, with their clean, simple lines and uncluttered design. In addition to looking good, minimalist lamps also help you save energy and money. When buying a lamp, look for one that has an Energy Star rating. These lights use about 75% less energy than standard incandescent bulbs. LED bulbs are even better; they last longer and use even less energy than Energy Star models.
Natural materials and organic textures
Homeowners and designers are opting more frequently for natural materials like wood, rattan, woven fabrics, and naturally weathered stones. In ten years, look out for even more minimalist pieces using these organic textures. And remember that natural doesn’t have to mean expensive, there are plenty of affordable options. All you need is a good eye and some imagination. Get started by checking out for inspiration.
Crystal vases
Crystal vases are one of those home decor trends that are both stylish and elegant. Although you can use them for flowers, they’re also great as a decorative pieces on their own. The best part is that they don’t cost much at all, so you can add a few to your home without breaking your budget. If you want something with a bit more color, consider using glass or colorful plastic instead of crystal. This will help liven up your space without going overboard on style.
Metallic accents
What was once a thing of beauty is now just another way to make your home look dated. However, if you’re looking to bring some sparkle back into your design, have no fear-metallic accents are on their way back, and they’re here with a vengeance. With a few key exceptions, we can safely declare metallic everything: from lamps and paintings to kitchenware and rugs. Metallic accents will shine throughout our homes in 2022.
Geometric furniture
Technology has radically changed how we live, work and communicate. Similarly, it has inspired new furniture designs, furniture that looks like it could have been created by a futuristic design. The first geometric pieces began popping up about ten years ago; look out for these shapes dominating home decor in the 2020s. They’re made from materials such as metal and chrome, with elegant glossy finishes. Combining curves with straight lines gives these items an architectural appearance.
Dark Patterns on Walls
Of course, you’ll want to stay on top of trends as they develop over time. Especially when it comes to home decor. Dark patterns are a popular trend now, but will they become out of style by 2022? It’s hard to say for sure, but if we look at other interior design styles that have come and gone, we can get an idea of what might happen with dark patterns. In particular, consider how paisley was all the rage in 2010 but fell out of favor just five years later. Paisley is still used today, but not nearly as often as it once was.
Big, bold color schemes
In a decade that is defined by colors and patterns, it’s no surprise that brights will become even brighter. From bold accent walls to pops of vibrant color throughout an entire room, going big with bold color schemes will be one of the biggest home decor trends in 2022.
Conclusion
Home decor trends change constantly, and predicting what’s coming next can be difficult. But one thing we know for sure is that people love a good aesthetic. If you’re looking to improve your home décor, focus on quality over quantity. an overstuffed room will just look cluttered, but an elegant and tailored space will have visitors thinking you have nothing more than a blank canvas with nothing to fill it and they’ll be eager to do it themselves.
