Top interior design trends of 2020 2020 has been a year to remember across all walks of life and the interior design landscape is no exception. This year, property interiors have been transformed by an inspiring and eclectic blend of new looks and iconic designs that have hit the scene with high impact, ranging from minimal and modern, to retro revival and musthave maximalism. Here we reveal the most popular interior trends this year.
RETRO COLOURS & MATERIALS MINIMALISM Minimalism has been at the forefront of design trends for some time and continued to be a mainstay in this year’s style guide. We’re seeing stylish, clutter-free interiors that maximise space and functional living. A key element to the minimalist style is strategically placed furniture, homewares and artworks that promote light and enhance a home’s architectural features.
Retro-inspired textures and colours are experiencing a resurgence in 2020. This year, we saw warm earthy tones like sage green, mustard yellow, burnt orange and dusty rose make a splash across the interior landscape. These colours, paired with textured materials such as velvet and corduroy and designed with a modern twist, have seen the retro revival forge a new path for couches, armchairs, cushions and homewares.
STANDALONE ARMCHAIRS The armchair has become one of the most celebrated statement pieces of furniture this year, regularly coined the ‘must-have’ item to buy in 2020. Whether it’s one chair or two, the right piece can elevate your living space to a new level. We’re seeing a mix of styles and designs with textured, patterned fabrics or more subdued colours paired with bright cushions and throws.
