Spring has finally arrived in our city, so what better way to officially kick off the warmer season than to revamp our home’s interiors with some of the most noteworthy trends. To get you started, our team has put together a list of the hottest home looks to give your home a fresh start for the season. Below are five of our favourite interior décor trends that are making headlines for Spring 2017!
Refresh with Tropical Prints
Skip traditional floral prints and patterns and take a tropical approach to this season’s beloved décor muse. Tropical flowers will instantly bring an exotic flair to your home, and there are endless low-commitment ways to experiment with this trend. Think: Printed pillows and dinnerware, or a vase full of tropical blooms on your dinner table.
The Marble Must-Have
Marble is having its moment. Often associated with luxury, this season marble is being used to enhance a contemporary look with its naturally beautiful qualities. Currently, one of the most popular interior trends is marble wallpaper, which instantly adds depth to a room at a relatively low cost. Other ways to bring this cool colour palette into a room is through furniture (try coffee tables and side tables), or with marble accessories. Bonus: The grey notes you’ll find in marble will also pay homage to a key colour trend for 2017.
Shades of Green
The 2017 Pantone Colour of the Year is Greenery – a shade inspired by the first days of spring. These natural tones of green will renew your home’s interior style, while also giving you an immediate mood boost. If you’re a big fan of the colour, then this is your chance to pick-up your paintbrush and create that green feature wall, or invest in a vibrant accent couch or chair. Another way to bring this colour into your home is through the use of living plants. Climbing plants and succulents both add a lovely natural element to a space and require minimal maintenance.
Incorporate Copper
Copper is quickly becoming the it metal for home interiors. Its unique tone will bring a burst of warmth into a space, plus a ton of character and rustic charm. Switch out your current cabinet hardware for copper, or swap out your lamps for those that are copper based for a twist on the typical silver or bronze. Hanging copper pots in your kitchen and investing in some copper mugs will also do the trick on this trend.
Acrylic Accents
Acrylic’s popularity is linked to its clean look and minimalist nature. Replacing current frames with clear acrylic styles will immediately establish a modern and less cluttered vibe within your home. Love this trend? Consider picking up acrylic chairs or a coffee table to enhance the airiness in your home – it’s perfect for lightening up the look and feel of your home after those long winter months!
