OUT FOR 2021

May finally be fading away.
We're shifting away from the 'Mad Men' look

Matching furniture sets may start to look dated

Identical furniture and matching sets don't showcase personal style.
Select nonmatching pieces with complementary colors or designs.
Having everything match doesn't allow people to let their personal style shine through.

What’s in for 2021
Granny Chic becoming more popular

Floral wallpapers are considered granny chic.
The "grandmillennial" trend is a modern revival of homey design elements that you might find in your grandparents' home.
The style is meant to evoke comfort, nostalgia, and tradition.
Think floral wallpaper, antique paintings, delicate china, crocheted throws, and vintage touches with whimsical flair.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper will be trendy in 2021

Wallpaper is having a bit of a resurgence right now.
Self-adhesive, removable wallpaper is gaining popularity with people who rent or are looking for a low-commitment way to upgrade their living space.

Wicker and rattan furniture will likely be trending

Natural-looking furniture is coming back in style.
woven furniture styles will be popular.
Rattan and wicker details.

BOTTOM LINE

the most important trend of 2021 in design calls for just to ignore these very trends,
to personalize the space and adjust the interior primarily for yourself.

We’ve said this before – it’s your home, your space, your lifestyle and your budget.  Chose wisely!
