[dropcap1]I[/dropcap1]t’s a new year, a fresh start, and you might be tempted to change your home decor for something different. It helps to draw inspiration from the decor trends, so here are five worth knowing for 2017.
Spring in Your Step
Pastel colours that make you think of eating macaroons in spring are turning up the heat this season. So choose shades such as soft pink or lavender to give your home a feeling of spring and femininity. This trend is especially good in rooms of the home where you relax, such as your bedroom or lounge.
Mixing Metals
It’s not just happening in your jewelry – mixing different metals is a decor trend for 2017. It’s about making use of fixtures and accessories in different metals to give your space more character. The bonus? This trend makes updating your decor really easy because you can still use the current metal accessories you have in your home. You’re just adding to them.
Chilled and Light
White-on-white designs are becoming hotter than ever and they evoke a spirit of comfort and relaxation. They’re also really fresh, so they’re great for summer living. But remember to team them up with interesting patterns and textures so that your space doesn’t lack personality.
Bringing the Outside Indoors
The trend of using plants in your interior space is not a new one, but in 2017 it gets taken up a notch by using natural touches in different rooms of the house where you might not think of doing so. For instance, growing a herb wall in the kitchen. This is trendy and practical because it makes creating delicious meals so much easier!
Small Pops of Colour
If the idea of minimalist, white interiors isn’t really your thing, then you should adopt the trend of colour bursts. In 2017, colour shows up in interiors in smaller quantities than in the past, while being combined with softer colours, or neutrals. It’s all about the contrast between the shot of colour and the tame background that makes the trend so eye-catching and such an appealing idea to transform your space.
