The Hottest Home Decor Trends 2018 Is Rocking

Summer is finally here, meaning we’re thinking about flat makeovers and playing our interior game. If you’re not sure where to start, don’t worry, you don’t need to be a professional to make something creative. This is a list revealing the biggest interior design trends of 2018. From the colours to the disposition and layouts, these are the hottest home decor trends 2018 that this year is absolutely rocking.

1. Decorative Fringe

Seems like the fashion industry is not the only one gashing over the fringing trend. Cushions, curtains, rugs, blankets and much more are now even better colourfully fringed. The fringy trend is now a thing and you can give your creativity a go on sofas and other living room furniture and light fixtures too.

2.Marblelous Trend

Marble is a classic and elegant stone that is definitely rocking among 2018 décor trends. Something interesting about marble is that it is not limited to countertops and tiles. This year, marble is gradually transitioning into home furniture applications, making tables, cupboards and coffee table tops unique and edgy.  They provide small but colourful touch to big and small home furniture and accessories, helping to give a unique personality to your flat. Marble is definitely a décor trend you should definitely think about this summer 2018.

3.Bold Wallpaper

Bold and colourful wallpapers are taking over the home décor sector this 2018. Have you been trying to avoid the extra bright colours and patterns, always choosing neutral walls and colours? It’s definitely the time to take the risk and follow the bold wallpaper mania. For some reason these give a distinctive young atmosphere to every room that you will instantly feel identified with it. Even Pinterest is filled of bold and must-check-out wallpapers. You 100% need to think about it.

4.‘Attractive’ Sofas

The main piece of furniture in your living room and perhaps your entire flat is the sofa, so why not highlight it as much as possible? This 2018 invest in a sofa that will be worth the money you spend on. Visitors need to scream wow inside their head when they walk through your main door. Opt for bright greens, yellows and pinks, take the risk!

5.Maximise

Again, 2018 is the time to choose excessive colours and go extra. Experiment bright colours and unusual themes, not only on your furniture but also for you kitchen tools, lounge cushions and bedroom storages.

6.Colourful Kitchens

Again, adding a big dose of colour never killed no body so why not consider getting something bright for your kitchen too? You may not feel like risking it too much with yellow kitchen cupboards or an intense red sink. So, in that case little kitchen tools could give you the dose of colour. Napkins, plates and pots will be your time to show creativity.  Definitely rocking this trend. This is one of the best home decor trends 2018 has to offer!


7. Velvet furniture

Velvet furniture seems to be one of the latest trends that you can’t miss if you are planning a renovation for your home. Just the softness of the material will make you want to fill your apartment with velvet sofas, velvet chairs, velvet cushions and velvet bin bags all over your place. Velvet is definitely one of the hottest home décor trends this year.

8.Balance new with old

Another great way to give a fresh look to your place is to combine old vintage furniture with new and modern pieces. Sometimes renovation doesn’t necessarily mean spending money on new things. It is all about knowing how to use what you already have. You can balance new and old in your living room or lounge area, as well as bedroom and storage areas.
