8 of the Hottest Interior Décor Trends to Look Out For in 2024

1. Earth tones: Earth tones are nature-inspired colours, from earthy reds like oxblood and terracotta to varying shades of brown like rust and caramel. It also includes hues like pink, mauve, peach and coral. This trend is seen as a comeback to the muted colours that took over during the pandemic season, as more people have now begun transitioning to warmer, richer tones.
2. Sustainable materials: Beyond aesthetics and surface visuals, more and more people are coming to the realization that sustainable materials are the way to go. With global warming on the rise, the need for environmentally-friendly materials has become even more glaring. This is why manufacturers have begun crafting pieces using recycled plastic. Purchasers are going for “indestructible” materials that have stain-resistant, outdoor-rated and high-performance qualities. Some of these materials are even able to mimic the look and feel of velvet, linen and other textural fabrics.
3. Brutalism: The brutalist movement took off around the 1950s: a new architectural style that emphasized textures, materials and construction over aesthetics in order to create highly expressive structures. Brutalism is mostly characterized by rough surfaces; raw, bare concrete; unusual shapes and massive forms. In 2024, it’s making a comeback in the realm of interiors, but thankfully, in a less brutal manner, incorporating elements such as wood, stones and plants to create a softer look.
4. Monochrome: Picture a room enveloped in a single color, from the ceiling trim to the furniture to the paint on the walls. Monochrome designs are still in this year, with varying shades of the same color applied to the different elements of a room. Some even go as far as applying the same fabric to every furniture piece, while others utilize differing textures. Whichever option you decide to go with, the point is to make a bold statement!
5. Stone: Although this certainly isn’t a new trend, it’s still making waves in the interior design world. Stone is taking over, being used for countertops, kitchen islands, backsplashes, door frames, window sills and baseboards. 
6. Maximalism: Where minimalism echoes the “less is more” mantra, maximalism screams, “more is more!” More colors, more patterns, more textures, all blended to produce eclectic and over-the-top designs. The antithesis of minimalism, it’s vivid, bold and excessive, allowing you to express yourself freely. In 2024, this style takes on a more modern approach, instead of the grandmillenial style of years past.
7. Silver Accents: There’s no doubt that gold is a colour that never goes out of style, providing a timeless glamour and shine. However, silver and iron accents are quickly taking over on items of furniture like tables, consoles and benches, as well as mirrors, candlesticks and decorative bowls. Its sleek and polished appearance can lend sophistication to any space.
8. Spat grooms: Wondering what on earth these are? A combination of the words “spa” and “bathroom,” spathrooms are basically spa-inspired bathrooms. Where once, bathrooms were seen as merely utilitarian spaces, the new trend is to turn them into private sanctuaries within the home. The goal is to promote self-care by creating a spa-like environment where you can unwind and relax without leaving the comfort of your house.
