Find Your Look: Interior Design Trends for 2023
The beginning of a new year is always a good time to think about big changes in your life. As you set your new year’s resolutions, don’t forget to include your home.
Whether your home needs large renovations or you are just ready for a refresh after staring at the same colors for so long, let the design trends of 2023 inspire you.
You want your home to feel like an expression of yourself, while creating a comfortable, functional space to match your lifestyle. The increased amount of time at home during the last few years due to the pandemic has influenced design trends. Minimalism and maximalism, which both dominated the design trends in recent years, are no longer prominent.
Instead, other trends are stepping into the forefront, including traditional styles, art deco, and nature-inspired rooms. Whether you want to fully embrace one of these styles, or you just want to incorporate a few pieces from one or more style, we, at Classic Flooring Center, can help you find the flooring, wall tile, and area rugs to help pull your perfect look together.
Traditional Interior Design
Creating a comforting, welcoming vibe is influencing current home interior trends. That is why the traditional style is making a comeback. Traditional design is rooted in 18th and early 19th century influence, but don’t think it has to look dated in order for it to work.
The symmetry, layered patterns, geometric patterns, bold colors, and intricate details the style is known for has been refreshed for a beautiful retro-inspired look that allows you to mix new pieces with antiques easily. With this style, you can easily display your favorite antiques, collections, second-hand finds, and more, while blending them with more modern styles.
When updating your flooring to accommodate this look, hardwood remains the best option. That’s because hardwood has been popular for centuries and was the prominent flooring used in the 18th and early 19th centuries that influence this style today. You can also choose laminate or luxury vinyl plank that mimics the natural tones and characteristics of hardwood if you need a more affordable, waterproof, or water-resistant option.
The best colors for flooring when decorating with this style are warm neutrals, including nude, camel, taupe, or other natural shades of brown. You can also choose creams, especially if you’re using tile or carpet. These warm tones balance the bold colors and patterns synonymous with the traditional design.
Since layering and mixing patterns are dominant in this style, choose an area rug with a pattern that ties your room together and complements your décor.
Art Deco Design
Coming back in the 2020s are designs influenced by the 1920s. Art deco was the look throughout the early 20th century until being replaced by mid-century modern in the 1950s. Art deco is known for its fun, creative, bold, artistic expression. Patterns feature geometric shapes, angles, and lines that are strong, including chevron, curves, sunbursts, triangles, and zigzags.
Because art deco is such a bold style, incorporating it throughout your home may not be for everyone. But you can use elements of this style in your interior design to create the look that is perfect for you. Use a sunburst mirror, a whimsical piece of art featuring a curved pattern, or add a curved coffee table.
When it comes to your flooring, try a hardwood installation featuring a chevron or parquet pattern. Choose a black and white checkered tile floor for your kitchen or bathroom or choose another tile that features a prominent geometric pattern. You can add an accent wall or a backsplash that features artistically patterned tile. Rugs also feature bold geometric patterns that complement the other colors and patterns in your room.
Nature-Inspired Looks
Since people are looking for a space that feels refreshing and comfortable, as well as that promote a sustainable lifestyle, design is being highly influenced by nature. This style includes live plants, furniture and décor made with natural materials featuring wood, cotton, metal, and more.
Flooring for this style includes hardwood, natural stone, or a carpet or rug made from natural fibers. The textures in natural materials add depth and are visually appealing. These materials also pair well with the rich, warm, earth-inspired hues that are currently popular. When choosing wall tile for your backsplash or shower, look for natural stone, or a subtle neutral.
