Do you enjoy keeping up to date with home interior trends? So, what furniture is on trend for 2024? We explore the latest designer predictions
Love keeping up to date with the latest home interior styles? Do you know what furniture is on trend for 2024? Let’s take a look at this year’s top designer predictions, including trending colour palettes, fittings and furnishings…
Warm Scandi neutrals
Begone boring grey and welcome to warm neutrals, which are being combined with the ever-popular Scandinavian design. Taupe, beige and off-white are back, adding warmth to cool home interiors. Think minimalist with cosy undertones. Combine different neutral shades together, including wall colours, furnishings and furniture. Complete the look with wooden shapes and pale upholstery, such as a push recliner in cream with matching footstool.
Colourful feature walls
If neutral isn’t your thing, don’t worry! Bold feature walls are still bang on trend or immerse the entire room if you prefer. Having certain rooms in your home full of colour can create a different mood from more neutral spaces. Bright spaces can help to promote creativity. Paint walls in Peach Fuzz, Pantone’s colour of the year, to create a cosy, nurturing space, ideal for a bedroom. Upgrade your bed to a modern solid oak bed frame for a good night’s sleep.
Chocolate brown chairs
Chocolate brown is a beautiful, multipurpose colour that stands the test of time. And according to design experts, this shade is trending for 2024. The great thing about dark brown furniture is the fact that you can mix and match with a wide range of furnishings and wall colours. From wooden tables to a brown bonded leather armchair, combine furniture with other earthy tones and blush-pink walls for the latest look.
Sculptural furniture
Shaping is everything when it comes to furniture and this year it’s all about statement pieces. Designer-inspired feature chairs, exquisite coffee tables and novel side tables can enhance any room in your home. Consider a Scandi rocking chair or a sculptural velvet chair with footstool. 2024 is all about shape, style and design, so consider your interior theme. Find pieces that will become focal points and conversation starters for a particular room.
Chaise and L-shaped sofas
L-shaped sofa sales are rising, and the ingenuity of modern furniture design means that many are built with modular components. In more compact homes, a comfy chaise sofa bed can be a worthwhile purchase. This allows you to host more overnight guests, or you can just simply kick back and use as a day bed to watch a film. What’s not to love?
Retro vintage lamps
A beautiful lamp or lampshade can enhance the look of your living areas. This year, feature lighting is in and the more niche the better. From mid-20th century pendant lightshades to vintage table lamps, consider the room style and ambience you want to create.
Japanese Wabi Sabi
If you’ve not heard of this trend, it’s been around for a while, but is predicted to rise in popularity this year. It’s based on the Japanese idea of finding beauty in imperfection, for example, cracked pottery glued back together. Think organic textures and asymmetrical shapes. An armchair featuring textured upholstery is a good way to introduce this look.
Trendy dining chairs
Dining rooms and areas are under the spotlight in 2024. Trendy dining chairs can add a pop of colour to this space, making home entertaining even more fun! It’s also a great way to upscale a tired-looking dining table, as you’ll focus people’s attention on your vibrant seating.
Statement wall art
Nothing spruces up a plain wall like a piece of striking artwork. And in 2024, it’s all about statement pieces. Go abstract, think big, and choose bold, colourful prints. You can find budget-friendly artwork online. Why not support an art student or upcoming local artist?
Frills and ruffles
There’s a whimsical air about 2024, and it’s all about ruffles! Ice-cream colour palettes can reinvigorate a dull grey wall with blossom pink and coral touches. Think stripey, candy cane cushions with frilled edges. Match with a soft pink recliner chair for the bedroom or lounge.
As we move further into 2024, we hope these design forecasts and trends inspire you to improve your home! Sometimes a small change can make a big difference, whether it’s a new chair, wall colour or furnishing. By staying up to date, you can refresh your home.
