With each passing year, interior designers bring new decorating trends, and 2016 is no different. With advances in all fields, interior design has probably not been far behind. As we all know, changing your entire home décor after a year is a cumbersome process and one that is not always affordable for everyone. So how do you keep your interior décor up to date without burning a hole in your bank account? But let’s return to the topic at hand, and that is, what are the changes in home decoration trends.
The kitchen
The appearance of a kitchen is made through its cabinets and cupboards. So, following the trends, you should aim for contrasting shades and colors. Instead of going for a single color theme, go for two tones. Also, when it comes to appliances, the look has changed from the typical white metallic look. Nowadays, you can go for a more ombre and steely look if you are trying to follow the trends. Adds a refined, yet more colorful look to the kitchen.
Also, if you’re thinking of renovating your entire kitchen, you might want to add a few extra drawers. Deep drawers are a favorite these days, and they seem to be added everywhere. It seems you can’t have too many of them.
Livingroom
It seems that people are gravitating towards the idea of using the living room for what it was named after, living! By avoiding the use of technology, living rooms should now be used for family bonding and spending quality time with loved ones, rather than just using their phones and devices there without family interaction.
The minimalist approach has gone out the window and so last year. You are looking at fully decorated living rooms; nothing left bare. Lots of furniture, lots of decor items, art on the walls and you have a living room straight out of the decorating magazines you read every day.
Plus, since you’ll be using your living room for more family activities than just sitting on the couches, designers are using more durable outdoor fabrics for indoor furnishings, rather than sticking to old-fashioned fabrics.
bathroom
Designers have also started incorporating new ideas into bathrooms. Separate toilet bidets are becoming more and more common. Another thing that has become very fashionable are the large bathroom mirrors that stand out. Bathroom wallpapers with bold patterns and colors give a very glamorous look. Big wall hangings that stand out are completely on trend.
Hopefully these tips will help you improve your home while staying within a strict budget.
