Home Décor Trends for 2019 – Ordinary’s Out, Individuality’s In

Good news folks! No matter if interior fashion is something you flinch from or faithfully follow, the recurring theme throughout this year’s predicted trends is something we can all agree on, individualism. Rather than jumping on the bandwagon, 2019 is setting out to be all about getting your own bandwagon, decorating it with your most treasured knickknacks and riding off into the sunset. From maximalism to eco-chic, clashing prints to luxury bed linen, here's our guide to bringing personality, not predictability, to your home.

Sumptuous Slumbers

Savour your sweet dreams by using the luxe look to bring a touch of decadence to your bedroom. Instead of cluttering the space with too much furniture, pick a statement-making piece to be the focus. Whether you opt for a glamorous chandelier, gilded dresser or velvet armchair, make sure it has a notable feature, such as a unique shape, impressive height or elegant upholstering. Emperor size bedding and canopy beds are another sure-fire way to increase the glam factor, while surrounding yourself with soft textures - sumptuous throws, pillows and rugs - in dusky pinks and smoky greys will instantly make a room look, and feel, like a million dollars.

Sustainable Style

With the environment suffering catastrophe after catastrophe, it’s no surprise we’re all trying to become more conscious consumers. Decorating your home needn’t cost the Earth. Reclaiming, reusing and recycling is becoming the norm and choosing ethically-sourced products, such as hand-crafted homeware and natural textiles, is a no brainer. The popularity of furniture made from fast-growing plants is bamboo-ming making swapping from plastic, polyester and particleboard to jute, rattan and wicker easier than ever.

Peppy Palettes

Rip up the rulebook and reach for a paintbrush, colours straight out of a crayon box are no longer just for the kids’ room. To boost a room’s energy (and your mood), give up greige and go mad for whimsical wallpaper, playful pigments and happy hues. Don’t be shy! Confident colours are easily tempered with neutral layers and tons of texture, and remember, whites bring out the best in brights.

Wall murals are another way to add texture, colour and instant wow to your living space. When integrating a feature wall into your scheme, make sure the design is included in other elements of the room, for example, in rugs, lampshades and cushions.

More is More

Instead of striving for perfection, strive for personalisation and make maximalism your mantra. This look is all about combining creative-expression with careful curation to make a beautifully layered and interesting home that reflects who you are. Plus, if you and your partner often clash over styles, mashing-up aesthetics, shapes, colours, texture and finishes is the perfect compromise.

Ace maximalism by picking up eclectic finds on your travels and tying together unlikely items like modern art in a baroque frame or soft, homey furnishings with a battered industrial lantern. Just remember this one easy rule; if you love it, display it.
