Inspired Home Décor Trends for 2015

With the New Year nearly upon us it seems like a good time to delve into some of the trending ideas in home decor. While there are no right or wrong answers where interior design is concerned, sometimes it pays to know what’s popular just in case you decide to put your home on the market for sale.

A great way to gain firsthand knowledge of what’s out there is to visit a few different open homes in your area, or, ever better, visit some newly built display homes to see the latest interior design trends. As a starting guide, we’ve done some of the work for you and have compiled a shortlist of the dominant home decor trends set to make their mark.

Modern Comfort Living

The latest home décor trends include many modern comforts.

There’s no denying that we enjoy relaxing on the sofa when we find a brief respite from our busy lives. In terms of our choices in interior design, 2015 will see a greater reflection of what’s happening in technology and contemporary culture. It’s all about enjoyment and entertainment.

Our homes will borrow from inspired materials, shapes, colors and patterns that are simple, immersive and pleasing to the eye.  We’re already seeing the return of classic luxury due to the simple fact that the majority of homeowners find the style both welcoming and comforting.

Organic Design

Nature will play a big part in future home décor trends.

With the fitness craze showing no signs of slowing down it is only a matter of time before our healthy living lifestyles take greater ownership of our homes. The coming year will be about getting back in touch with nature and bringing the outdoors inside wherever possible.

We’ll see a rise in the number of indoor plants as well as a larger proportion of earthy colors on our walls (warm greys, tans and greens come to mind). Nature is versatile and if you’re planning to entertain in the New Year, this might just be a style for you.

Minimalism

As far as practicality goes, the downtown loft and open-roofed plan are making a big comeback. That feeling of freedom adds something special to the atmosphere of a space, and if you are limited in the amount of room you have to work with, consider ways to maximize the amount of light available in your indoor living areas.

Given the rate at which technology is advancing and how much extra work we have to do just to keep up, it’s no surprise that we are all yearning for simpler times. Fortunately, it seems that 2015 will be the year of minimalism in interior design.

Fusion and Industrial Design

At the opposite end of the spectrum there will be those attempting to bring the sharp lines and hard surfaces of industrial America into their homes. Stainless steel appliances and maximum convenience will be the order of the day.
