With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season in full swing, nearly everyone has the same goal…closing out the 2014 year with a celebration and then beginning the 2015 chapter with style and pizazz. Here are some of the hottest home design trends of 2015 to get you started!
Last season, we saw a lot of bold and bright in the Pantone color wheel picks, but the trends tended to be cooler and slightly less earthy in tone. This year, Pantone’s top hue is “Marsala”, a rich, warm, red wine color. Among the others featured as “hot” for the upcoming season are Glacier Grey, Lavender Herb, Custard, Toasted Almond, and Treetop. Additionally, some brighter picks also standout for 2015, such as Aquamarine, Strawberry Ice, Tangerine, and Scuba Blue.
Long gone are the days of very matchy-matchy styles when it comes to home design. 2015 trends are seeing even more mixing of eras, as modern and retro come together in a look that is both chic as well as elegant. Home offices, for example, are springing up all over the place with combinations of vintage furnishings paired with very modern painting and décor styles. Another place that this trend is especially popular is in the kitchen, where show homes blend contemporary appliances, countertops, and fixtures, with retro styled cabinets and lighting options.
With the rise of Pinterest and similar sites, people are sharing ideas and design trends with others on a scale that is larger than ever before. With this has come a movement toward making the old or unused new and useful again. From refinishing ancient pieces into vintage beautiful to distressing newer pieces that need loving rehab , a top home design trend for 2015 is to recycle, restore, and reuse.
Having a little shimmer of metallic in a room has always been a popular home design craze, but in 2015 this idea is taken to a whole new level. While copper is the metal color that seems to be trending this season, it doesn’t stand alone. Rather, mixing metals is the new inclination. Copper and titanium, for example, are popping up all over the place, mixed flawlessly together as accessories in fabulous show homes.
Neutral continues to make a comeback in 2015, with shades of white, grey, and taupe making an appearance in nearly every room. Whether used as a base color and accessorized with bolder and brighter shades, as an accent to lighten and brighten a warm, rich room, or even standalone, neutral hues are a “must have” in home design for 2015.
