The fall-winter 2021 furniture season dresses the home in colors and materials that keep us connected to nature and styles that make relaxation a modern value. Refinement and ‘glamour’ will not leave us, but will simply show a more relaxed version of a ‘new luxury.’

While we are still in the midst of summer, it is natural in the world of decor to turn attention to new trends, preparing for the season of cozy sweaters worn in front of a fireplace with a glass of wine in hand.

5 Interior Design Trends 2021

In our opinion, the natural trend will continue throughout 2021.

Whether it is shades leaning towards rustic earth tones or items with a handmade, artisanal quality, embracing the outdoors is one of the key trends that will remain predominant.

Read below to discover what else is in store for fall 2021 decor and beyond.

The Value of Craftsmanship

Craftsmanship has been reclaiming its right to be part of interior decoration since 2020, for its ability to modernize and make a space unique without losing its essence. Products that are not mass-produced emphasize the need to return to origins and the search for authenticity: all these types of objects have a bright future ahead. Among the artisanal creations that can be part of current interior design, we will still find wicker items (baskets, trays, and seating), pottery (vases and ornaments), and tables made of various materials, such as marble.

Think Globally

Another key trend that pairs perfectly with earth tones in 2021? Warm and natural fabrics inspired by global influences. Globally flavored decor details pair perfectly with wooden, fabric, and rattan home accessories: you can achieve a multicultural decor by integrating design pieces with international connotations.

Smart Working 2021

If you haven’t done so yet, it’s not too late to think about your own workspace at home: design your office as a space to aid thought; seek clear and sharp lines, comfort, and some paintings or creative objects. It wouldn’t be bad to have easily accessible spaces where you can place things that excite you and help you feel at ease. For your seating, you can choose a vertical swivel chair, suitable for desk work, but why limit yourself? In recent years, we’ve realized that comfort is essential, so why not choose a leather armchair, which suits a situation of reflection and reading, if your work mainly consists of these two activities?

Embrace Imperfection More Than Ever

The pursuit of aesthetic perfection, in decor and beyond, has become decidedly out of fashion. Confirming this trend is the incredible growing demand for artisanal products, which assert their individuality, as we have already discussed above. This concept is also found in the birth of cottagecore and the incredible return of decor styles such as modern rustic and Tuscan style, where the feeling of simplicity and the use of ‘lived-in’ materials dominate.
