5 Surprising Interior Design Trends You’ll See in 2024

In the ever-evolving world of interior design, staying ahead of the curve is essential for creating spaces that not only meet your aesthetic expectations but are also reflective of the era of design we’re heading in.

As we step into 2024, we’re excited to share some trending design predictions that will shape the way our studio approaches design this year. From a shift in popular color palettes to a renewed appreciation for craftsmanship, here’s a glimpse into the trends that will define interior spaces in the Queen City and beyond.

1. Embracing the Timelessness of Brown

Say farewell to the cool tones of grays, blues, and whites as 2024 welcomes the rich and warm embrace of brown.

This versatile and timeless hue is set to dominate not only fabrics and textiles but also find its way into cabinetry, tiles, and wallpaper. The resurgence of brown signifies a return to earthy, organic elements, providing a comforting and grounding atmosphere in residential and commercial spaces alike.

This year’s interiors are poised to be adorned with shades ranging from deep mahogany to soft, sandy tones. Will you jump on this bandwago

In the heart of every home, the kitchen, a significant transformation is underway. Hood vent designs are taking center stage with a departure from the ordinary sheet metal hood.

Expect to see bolder and more textured hood designs above kitchen stoves, incorporating materials like plaster or wood fluting.

These artistic hoods not only serve a functional purpose but also become focal points of the space, adding character and depth to the culinary hub of the home.This marriage of form and function will elevate kitchen design to new heights, offering a delightful blend of aesthetics and practicality.

3. Smart Homes Will Take a Backseat

In 2024, we’re bidding adieu to the harsh blue light and futuristic mechanics of touchscreens. Instead, it’s predicted that a sense of nostalgia will become increasingly popular this year.

Homeowners will continue reverting to old-school designs that evoke a sense of simplicity and craftsmanship. This shift towards a more tactile and tangible living experience reflects a desire to reconnect with our simple life roots while embracing modern functionality.

4. Murals in Unexpected Spaces

The walls of our homes are set to become canvases for artistic expression in 2024. Murals, recently confined to commercial spaces, are breaking free and jumping right into our homes.

Expect to see these vibrant and visually striking artworks appearing in unexpected places, such as foyers and stair halls. This trend not only adds a touch of personality to overlooked areas but also transforms transitional spaces into captivating visual narratives.

5. A Rise in Secondary Kitchen Spaces

In 2024, homeowners will redefine the functionality of their kitchens. Beyond the primary cooking area, this trend is shifting design towards the creation of secondary spaces, like back kitchens, wet bars, and butler’s pantries. No more unused or ignored space!

These extensions of the kitchen will serve as practical solutions for entertaining guests and taking advantage of additional storage. Whether it’s a discreet wet bar for mixing cocktails or a butler’s pantry for seamless serving, these secondary spaces will add both style and functionality to any home.
