Interior Design
“As we evolve, our homes should too,” to quote Suzanne Tucker, the author of the book, The Romance of Design. Achieving this requires homeowners to keep up with modern interior design trends that keep changing with the season.
Different home decorating ideas come out of season each year as people adjust to the changing technology and cultural evolutions that are more strategic and purposeful.
Since 2020, many things have changed in interior design. For 2024, it’s all about individualization.
Natural materials, natural lighting, and sustainability are edging out standby designs like all-white and monotone designs. Combined with durable materials, expressive colors, and biophilic design, 2024 is leading bold new trends for every modern home.
The Home Office
Now that working from home—or anywhere—is an integral part of daily life, every home needs an office. Whether an entire room or a corner spot that converts into a home office is now as ubiquitous as a kitchen. Homeowners will invest more in features like soundproofing, ergonomic furniture, and elegant but functional designs to make their workspaces more efficient and comfortable.
Flexible, Multifunctional Spaces
Similar to the home office, a multifunctional space is a necessary trend going forward. Homes with limited space can have one room which is an office during the morning, a yoga studio in the early afternoon, the kid’s playroom later, and a family room after dinner.
Kitchen islands are also multifunctional, with adjustable heights, retractable workspaces, integrated tech, and charging stations. Combined with modular and convertible furniture, a multifunctional space in any home offers a versatile living space that changes as needed.
Smart Homes and Tech-Integrated Living
As technology continues to expand into everyday life, design will increasingly incorporate technology so that it blends in with the décor. Voice controls for HVAC and entertainment systems and AI-integrated home assistants will become standard features in new homes.
Libraries And Other Storage Spaces
Even with the world going digital, storage space is still important. Because people still buy things, they need space to store them. Closets, bookshelves, pantries, and kitchen cabinets will continue to be important elements in a home’s design.
Sustainability
This term has many meanings. However, homeowners are more interested in furniture made from recycled or reclaimed wood and other materials, renewable resources, and recycled or upcycled. Their desire for style is not compromised by the reduction of their carbon footprint.
Reclaimed timber, linoleum, bamboo, cork, and recycled plastic or glass are widely used, especially in kitchens. Other eco-friendly options include energy-efficient lighting, building materials using recycled components, and low-volatile organic compound paints.
Durability is also a factor, with homeowners seeking out pieces that will last longer.
Of course, the best interior design trends are the ones that work for you.
