Interior Design Trends 2017: New Year, New Home

With a new year in full swing and a new spring season a mere two months away it’s time to take a look at the emerging interior design trends for 2017. From the latest colour palettes to must have materials, we explore some of the key styles that could be influencing your home design this year.

Interior Colour Trends 2017

Start getting your home décor up to date for 2017 by investing in the latest colour trends for this year. The biggest colour by far is green, with Pantone naming Greenery as their colour of the year. Pantone describes this colour as a “fresh and zesty yellow-green shade”. You’ll also find greens in other shades and tones, from vibrant lime to dark and earthy. This colour will also be influencing home furnishings in 2017. Think palm prints and natural materials, both of which will be playing a big role in many trends.

You should also expect to see lots of blue, with navy blue particularly making a regular appearance in some of the latest styles. Pantone’s Spring colours show complementing blues contrasted with pastels and sunny yellow. Varying shades of blue feature in all the latest colour palettes. These are then combined with pastels such as pink or dark tones such as grey to create varying looks.

Home Furnishings & Prints 2017

Tropical prints are so far dominating decorating trends in 2017, taking inspiration from the colour green along with adventurous jungle-inspired patterns. Oversized palm fronds and bold zig-zag prints adorn walls, curtains and rugs while animal prints and silhouettes look daring on cushion covers. Additionally, repeated patterns create an eye-catching feature wall and contrast with other simpler prints. The key to this latest interior design trend is to be daring and clash your patterns while remaining stylish.

If you’re not feeling as brave with your home décor this year, opt for more muted patterns that take inspiration from neutral textures. Lamp shades and cushion covers with subtle marble prints help to provide an interesting yet subtle dynamic and complement soft geometric patterns on rugs and accessories. Pair with glamorous art deco inspired pieces, such as mirrored vanity tables and gold accessories, to create an opulent atmosphere in your home. For a feminine twist, many interior design trends have also incorporated floral inspired prints sparingly.

Texture Trends 2017

Textures again play a big role in the latest interior design trends, with mixed fabrics and materials creating a unique and inviting environment. Any interesting combination of textures, from chunky knitted cushions to rough natural wood, will help give your home décor a modern and up to date feel.

Marble and brass are making special appearances this year, with brushed brass tables and fixtures giving an industrial contrast to luxurious marble furnishings. Pair these two textures together with some pastel tones to create a delicate and refined atmosphere.
