If you’re looking for ways in which you can update and elevate the styling in your home, the interior design trends for 2023 are a great source of inspiration. It can be overwhelming for those without extensive or professional experience in interior design to know where to start or what to do.
That’s why we’ve curated the top 12 design trends that are increasingly popular across homes this year.
Top 12 Interior Design 2023 Trends
Use Sustainable Materials
Sustainable materials are not just good for the environment and socially responsible, they’re also in fashion. Whether you opt for ethically-sourced natural stone (our personal favourite), reclaimed wood, recycled plastics or just bamboo is up to you and your overall aesthetic preferences.
As technology develops and the sustainability industry evolves, there are more and more ways to incorporate this 2023 interior design trend without breaking the bank, ruining your interior style or compromising your preferences.
Mix Different Materials
While we’re on the topic of materials, mixing different textures and aesthetics is very much on trend this year. With the aim of creating a level of visual complexity, juxtaposing different material finishes in a way that complements each other can add an elegant layer to your interior styling.
Particularly on trend in 2023 are embossed textures, including leathers and fabrics incorporating raised patterns. Remember to consider both materials when mixing and matching, as you’ll want both choices to bring out the best in the other material without becoming too overwhelming visually.
Bold Colours
Using bold colours continues to be a popular interior design trend in 2023. From bright blues to bold magentas, the choice is really up to you and your intended style. Materials such as stone come in a wide range of colours, so it’s easy to find the perfect shade to match your preference.
Of course, how exactly you use bold colouring is up to you. You can limit it to a feature wall to act as a focal piece to the space, or incorporate the colour scheme into furniture, artwork, accents or other furnishings.
Personal Customisation
Personalised design is a highly popular trend at the moment. The prioritisation of unique and customised spaces offers a lot of opportunity for people to be bold and true to themselves at the same time.
When you’re considering the interior design of any room in your house, be it the bathroom or the kitchen, think about the type of atmosphere you want to create and what sort of activities you’ll be mainly using the room for. From there, it’s a matter of finding the colour schemes, furniture, decorations and materials that best bring your personal vision to life.
Maximalism
While minimalism has its place (see below), maximalism is making a comeback as a 2023 interior design trend. This aesthetic combines many of the trends above into one jaw-dropping and visually wonderful creation.
Maximalism is all about making strong and eclectic spaces by mixing different interior styles, contrasting patterns and even bold colours. Whilst minimalism focuses on neat lines and neutral shades, maximalism goes the opposite route and infuses texture and depth in every which way.
Highlighting Biophilic Design
As the centrality of health–physical and mental–and well-being becomes more and more a part of our public consciousness, so too has the interior design 2023 trends reflected this social shift.
Biophilic design includes the incorporation of natural elements into one’s interior design. From decorative and natural plants to opportunities to bring in large amounts of natural lighting, this approach to design is all about promoting integration with nature, personal health and a sense of well-being.
Minimalism
In contrast to maximalism above, the popularity of minimalism seems to be ongoing as we move into 2023. Minimalism focuses on creating a soothing aesthetic through neutral tones and straight, clean lines to create an at-once clean and inviting space.
Prioritising a minimalist quality to one’s interior design doesn’t preclude any of the above trends, however. There’s still opportunity to use sustainable materials, a featured bold colour, multiple patterns and even biophilic design. Only all of this is to be designed in a minimalist style.
Timelessness
Perhaps somewhat incongruous with the concept of a trend, more and more interior design styles are focusing on achieving a sense of timelessness.
Rather than opting for out-there and contemporary looks, timeless designs are meant to remain stylish and appealing for many years to come.
Highlighting classic aesthetics and avoiding some of the more time-stamped elements of modern design can help ensure your home doesn’t quickly go out of style. Of course, that doesn’t mean there’s no opportunity for customisation! There’s still a lot of flexibility in how and where you infuse personalisation and inspiration.
Moody Colour Palettes
Increasingly, darker and moodier colour palettes are proving to be popular in 2023. In contrast to choosing just a single bold colour, this design style uses multiple darker shades to create a moody atmosphere.
Some of the more common bold colour schemes popping up all over the place include deep green, navy and charcoal. Bathrooms and kitchens especially can be really taken to the next level with some well-considered dark colour schemes.
Whimsical Accessories
A sense of whimsy never goes astray but if you’re not quite sure just how much you want to inject in your interior design, the popular trend of whimsical accessories might just be the way to go.
From the quirky to the unexpected, there’s a near-infinite range of options of what whimsical accessories to include and how to include them. Items of furniture, decor and ornaments can all bring a sense of life to a space and make the overall aesthetic really pop.
Prioritising Comfort
Homes should be comfortable and cozy, which is why this trend is taking off in 2023. Plush fabrics, soft lighting and rich, warm colours are all potential elements that can be utilising to create a real sense of comfort in a home.
Living spaces and bedrooms are particularly well suited to being turned into cozy corners of the home, but there’s no reason why the rest of your house’s interior design can’t be customised for your comfort as well!
Antique Decor
Antique decor and vintage accents comprise one of the more interesting 2023 interior design trends. Art, statues, sculptures and the like all come in a variety of styles and the current trend is to lean into the richness and character of antique decor.
Fortunately, you’re able to utilise this trend as much or little as you want. Antique decor can be easily paired well with modern, minimalist designs as well as rustic, traditional or maximalist styles.
