Design, just like fashion, is all about looking forward to what upcoming trends will be. Fabrics, upholstery, furniture, and paint color are always changing every season. This upcoming season, a lot of the color trends are being inspired from high fashion. With light pastels to bold colors, upcoming trends are spanning many different styles. From eclectic to traditional, you can find your perfect style match with any of these colors. When you know what the next great thing will be, your design will be ahead of the rest!
For this first color forecast, we’ll take a look at color trends inspired by nature.
The “green” movement in design isn’t only limited to promoting environmental friendliness; nature is also helping to inspire new color trends. Nature has always been a source of inspiration for design, but now it is really a great source from which to choose colors. A great amount of inspiration for color is coming from the Earth, like that of mossy greens and botanical inspired bright colors. Dark greens, purples, reds and yellows are going to be popular in the coming season. Along with these vibrant colors come neutrals that are also representative of the Earth. To accent any of these colors in your space, you can also use natural printed fabrics, like an animal print or a leaf/ floral.
The main point of this nature-inspired trend is to give balance between your home and the outdoors. By mixing these neutrals and pops of color, your space will mimic nature in a way that is comforting as well as chic.
