As we approach January’s doorstep, our excitement grows for the design trends that 2019 will bring. Our initial report from last month offered a glimpse into the year’s aesthetic landscape. Now, with the New Year just around the corner, we’re more confident than ever in the direction the design world is taking. And what do we have to look forward to? A continued emphasis on eco-consciousness – a mindset that prioritizes natural, handmade elements over mass-produced ones.

In 2019, it seems that embracing sustainability will no longer be just a passing fad, but a genuine lifestyle choice. As you read on, see if the design revelations of the new year leave you feeling hopeful and inspired.

Chintz

As the popularity of English country, Farmhouse, and Scandinavian rustic styles continues to grow, it’s natural to find yourself drawn to the charms of chintz. This cotton textile, characterized by its floral and whimsical motifs, is a staple of 19th century elegance. To incorporate it effectively into your home decor, start with small, accessible elements like patterned pillows or lampshades. But don’t be afraid to go big – large-scale prints can add a touch of sophistication to any room.

With its timeless appeal, chintz is sure to remain a beloved design element for years to come.

While it may seem like a bold departure from the traditional white-tiled look, this daring move is set to gain even more traction than its predecessor in 2018. The result is nothing short of stunning – a sleek, stylish space that redefines the bathroom’s visual identity.

We’re thrilled to wholeheartedly endorse this trend and encourage you to take the plunge and bring some much-needed boldness to your bathroom.

Green Additives

Green, in all its nuanced shades, refuses to be forgotten. The enduring popularity of variations like Greenery, Sage Green, Nightwatch, and Pewter Green underscores the trend’s staying power. In its deeper, richer iterations, green is closely tied to luxury, imbuing interior spaces with a sense of opulence. This versatility has earned it a spot as a go-to choice for homeowners seeking to elevate their decor.

According to design expert Okin, ‘green is popping up everywhere at the moment,’ and when paired with velvet, a fabric also poised for continued success in 2019, the result is a fresh and invigorating look that’s sure to capture attention.

Shiny Metallics

Gone are the days when they were reserved for holiday decorating; instead, they’re set to illuminate tables and add a touch of glamour to rooms throughout the year. According to Sandy Chilewich, founder and creative director at Chilewich, ‘a subtle shimmer can make an otherwise muted room glow.

‘ As the year progresses, you’ll be unable to look away from the captivating fusion of metal and jewel tones, as they work together to create a truly unforgettable visual experience.

Eco-friendliness

As the world becomes increasingly aware of ecological concerns, even traditionally extravagant industries like fashion and design are embracing a more sustainable approach. The DIY movement, commitment to high-quality goods, and creative recycling efforts are all gaining traction as designers and consumers alike prioritize eco-friendly practices.

Genevieve Garruppo’s decor4all blog is one such example, showcasing the beauty of reducing plastic waste in the home by opting for natural textiles, furniture made from sustainable materials, and the art of renewing old objects – a philosophy known as Wabi-Sabi. This responsible approach to consumption not only benefits the planet but also results in unique and charming décor.

In recent years, the eco-friendly trend has reached new heights, making it impossible to ignore its impact on our daily lives. From reducing plastic use to repurposing old items, every small change can collectively make a significant difference. The likes of damasketdentelle. com and catesthill. com are just a few examples of online platforms championing eco-conscious living – a movement that’s not only good for the planet but also inspiring for our homes.
