It feels like fall is already here! This means that it is time to replace summery, light-colored home decor with something more comfortable and warm. These suggestions are based on the most recent interior design trends predictions for 2013.
Brass
This metal is a top pick for interior designers this fall. Antique and polished brass are appearing on accent pieces such as lighting, table tops, bookends and tables. Polished brass is a great complement to bright, colorful interiors. It can also add some glamour to rooms that use more neutral colors. For a more settled look, antique brass is a great choice. This material can be used in many places within the same space. It would be easy to have a brass bowl and picture frame, as well as wall decorations, end tables, and wall decorations all in one room.
Green
Pantone, the global market leader in color and colour systems, has named Emerald the color of 2013. You can use green anywhere! A green accent can be added to any item, from furniture to wall decorations to carpets or rugs. If the rest of the room is a lighter color, walls can be used as a surface to accent a green color.
Furniture with a textured or wrapped finish
Wrapped furniture is when fabric is used instead of paint to cover a chair or table. This craft is very popular and can be done using linen. Textured furniture often has additional hardware or elements added, such as wicker or textured paint or shaped metal accents.
Homey Kitchen
Modern kitchens still look great, but this area is slowly becoming more welcoming. A wooden countertop or island space can be a great way to create a relaxing atmosphere while still keeping a classic look. A popular choice for kitchen flooring is lighter-colored wood. Some kitchens still use black and white, but the latest trend is to use bright, light colors with simple accents and hardware that can be used for multiple purposes.
Neutrals
This seems to be a new trend, but hasn’t this been a style that’s been popular since the beginning of time? Because of their versatility, neutrals are always attractive no matter what season. You can choose from a variety of colors, including black, white, gray and beige. Because they lack tint, neutral colors are often considered neutrals. This makes it easy to “dress them up” with a splash of color. There are so many options! You can add color to any neutral space.
These examples can help you plan your fall re-decorating strategies. However, these ideas could also be used at other times of year. You might find decorating enjoyable than most people, or consider it a hobby. You might consider taking it to the next level. If you enjoy helping people with color schemes and room arrangement, interior design can be a rewarding career. To further your passion for interior design, you might consider a degree program in this field.
