• 2021 Home Design Trends •

Design trends come and go but one thing always remains, our need for personalized functional style. Check out our list of what’s on its way out in 2021, and what’s making a grand entrance.

Grey’s Anatomy Is Out!
A combination of grey and beige, affectionately known as greige, has been designers color of choice for more than a decade. Celebrated for its ability to blend in while also providing a respite from boring builders white, this standard neutral has gone from being a chic, timeless color choice, to a humdrum basic. Bye bye greige, hello pastels!

Let Your True Colors Shine
This year is all about integrating pops of color for interest and vibrancy. Paneled walls in navy, seamless room transitions and curated wall murals, eclectic art collections and moody, layered fabrics all add relevance and charm. We can’t wait to see this trend come to life.

Nature Calls
2021 will continue to see the integration of home and environment. Lush, indoor gardens, natural wood cabinets and organic accents like rattan and wicker will continue to pave the way for ambient décor that takes its cue from Mother Nature herself.

A Nod to Mid Mod
This year, we’re channeling our inner Don Draper and propelling forward with sleek lines, curvy edged furniture and a classic, unassuming aesthetic for that coveted 1950’s vibe. We’ll see the continual quest for wood, metal, vinyl and glass with strong, geometric art and bold textiles taking center stage.

Modern Scandinavian
There’s a reason we see this soft, minimalist style reemerge every year. We’re drawn to uncluttered environments with muted, pastel hues, warm textures and organic materials like wood and hemp. The hallmark of Nordic style is functional simplicity with an emphasis on comfort and innovation, and 2021 will be no exception. Watch this design trend soar with the rebirth of home offices and the need for integrated spaces 

The Office
Last year saw the fast and furious collision of personal and professional spaces, with more people setting up makeshift offices at home. This year will pave the way for distinct separation of home and work life, comprehensive storage solutions, meticulous organization and shelving options that are sleek and functional. The home office is here to stay so it’s time to step up your décor game and make this little corner functional and stylish.

The White House
White is white, right? Wrong. With a clear nod to cozy comfort, 2021 will see the rise of warm white tones and the exit of the stark, cool shades we leaned on in the past. We’re crushing on Linen Ruffle by Glidden, a soft, gentle off-white that adds depth without being overpowering. Pro tip: Try painting your trim and crown molding 1-2 shades darker for a warm contrast that adds just enough oomph.

It’s All About You
Eclectic design will replace rustic and refined palettes. Shiplap wall features will make way for wallpaper and bold accent walls. We’ll step into brass hardware, crisp, modern lighting, linear, monochrome backsplash and tile work. The modern farmhouse vibe we’ve known and loved will start to dissipate and we’ll see the rise of majestic, personal styles, curated and unique to each of us. Who’s ready to own it?
