Home Design Trends for 2023

Are you still looking at "Sea Foam Green" and "Dusty Rose" carpeting? Do you have flowered wallpaper borders across your dining room and bedroom? You're not alone - but that doesn't mean you can't do something to change things! Get rid of those outdated looks by implementing some of the top interior design trends for this year.

Sustainable and eco-conscious

Environmentally conscious home design is a strong trend right now as many homeowners and designers look toward long-term sustainability in favor of short-term makeovers. Consider how you can improve your own home's efficiency with smart systems, durable furniture, and sustainable fabrics and materials like bamboo, cotton, wool and linen.

Deep, dark colors

Paint is often the easiest and most budget-conscious way to spruce up a room. This year, the major paint manufacturers are looking at natural shades for walls rather than light or neutral colors. Don't be afraid to go bold. Popular colors include dark earthy tones and and pinkish reds, with the top Benjamin Moore color of "raspberry blush," Sherman Williams' "redend point," and Pantone's "Viva Magenta." Of course if you'd rather stick with a neutral go for something in a newer tone such as Behr's "Blank Canvas" or "Rustic Greige" from Dutch Boy.

Holistic design

Today's interior designers have come to view the entire home as a personal sanctuary, a trend continuing since the pandemic hit. Every room should be designed with your comfort and well-being in mind. Creating places in your home that are both enjoyable and relaxing can help you recover from the challenges of a busy workday, and meet the physical and emotional needs of everyone who lives there.

Multi-functional rooms

Rooms that serve multiple functions are also trending for 2023. Seldom-used traditional dining rooms can be turned into relaxation spaces, craft or hobby rooms, a music room or office. Rooms no longer need to be designated for just one purpose. Making the most of the rooms in your home, no matter how large or how small, is always in style.

Right-sizing

Thanks to Marie Kondo, many people find themselves getting rid of clutter and creating an atmosphere of calm. This also translates into design, with people looking to create a living space that fits their modern lifestyle. Younger homeowners may be looking for a larger home, but with spaces that work for their needs. Many retirees and empty nesters choose downsizing, looking to simplify and declutter their homes to reflect their next life stage.
