In recent years, certain basics have been established in the direction of interior design, which do not change, despite the change of seasons. Designers continue to follow the established trends, making only small changes, a refreshing look at the capital ideas. The design of rooms and furniture continues to follow the trend of ergonomics and everyday comfort for a person. Natural materials, eco-friendly palettes of shades, orthopedic furniture that adapts to the features of the body.
The interior trends 2024 support an atmosphere of creativity, creativity and healthy communication. The priority is the preferences of the owner of the house, a minimum of uncertainties and abstractions.
The common denominator of the direction continues to be environmental friendliness. Natural materials and elements are actively introduced into the everyday environment. Green and woody shades remain headliners. Moreover, designers do not stop at products made of wood and stone, but actively use recycled materials. Reed mats and corn veneers are paired with an abundance of living plants in the form of vertical gardens or arranged in a traditional planter.
Principles of organizing living space
The interiors are based on the concept of silence and comfort, which are in short supply on the streets of the metropolis. The priority is clear lines and neutral tones. Nothing should distract from communication, rest and work processes. The priorities in creating an interior project are focused on simplicity, convenience and concise execution. It is possible that these trends will only gain momentum in the future.
Interior 2024: focus on small spaces
The larger the metropolis, the more compact human housing. More and more orders for interior designers are limited to 40m2 or less. Studio apartments are becoming more and more in demand, and the designer’s task is to zone a single room as functionally as possible and without compromising the comfort of residents.
Large pieces of furniture, partial walls, glass partitions, warm shades and focal bright colors are used as tools for highlighting zones.
A new trend – hybrid houses
The transition to remote work means that homes have to adapt to the needs of the owners. In addition to recreation and entertainment areas, workspaces require inclusion. Given the shortage of space, the need for transformable zones becomes urgent.
For zoning are used:
different floor levels;
unification of workplaces by a single library;
a sleeping place is placed behind sliding panels in direct access from the place of work.
Japandi: collaboration of European and Asian minimalism
Designers have combined Japanese and Scandinavian approaches to organizing a minimalist interior (a combination of japan and scandi). Actual style features allow you to create an aesthetic and at the same time practical space:
simple forms;
monochromatic textures;
natural shades with bright color accents;
practicality;
minimum decorative elements.
Cool gray-white combinations of the Scandinavian direction are successfully diluted with hospitable warm colors in oriental traditions.
Preferred materials: metal and wood
Dark wood is in trend. Shades of mahogany, wenge and oak are used not only in furniture frames, but also in wall cladding, laminate and parquet, and decorative structures.
The metal continues to be used in all variations: gold, silver, copper and bronze, steel and aged coatings. Elements are included in the decor through furniture details, lamps, frames and frames.
Color in the interior 2024
Watercolor blue. This is the perfect color scheme for the bedroom. If you use a muted, translucent azure in the vicinity of neutral tones, it will become optimal in other rooms. The ideal shade companion for blue watercolor is a delicate cream.
Gold. There is nothing wrong with the elements of luxury. Nobility and well-being, present in the interior in the form of separate elements, will perfectly coexist with orange, chocolate, red and turquoise. Velvet black color combined with gold is a classic version of aristocracy.
Almond shade. The wonderful quality of this shade is to transform, depending on the neighborhood with other colors. Almonds are multifaceted, captivating with their gentle coolness. At the same time, it can be both a companion and a dominant.
Refreshing green. The choice of conservative-minded apartment owners and fans of minimalism. Color does not lose relevance. A dark green shade is recommended for walls and emerald, ultramarine for furniture upholstery.
A hint of dark ginger. Warm and cozy, like a gentle hug. Seasoned with notes of persimmon, ginger will become the epitome of noble luxury.
Samba, or ripe cherry red, but slightly muted. In 2024, this color will join the ranks of headliners. The tone is recommended for textiles, furniture finishing. It is recommended to combine the samba shade with neutral tones, this will give the interior a sensuality and sophistication.
Warm beige. The combination of beige and gray gives a very comfortable, cozy combination. Natural beige goes well with blue, green and chestnut shades.
Amber. Sunny, resinous shade. He combined orange, yellow, red shades. Used in interiors to create a warm, energetically saturated accent. Amber perfectly coexists with lilac, beige and brown tones.
Kitchen interiors: trends 2024
The dominant accent is minimalism, practicality, eco-friendly materials. Even such directions in the interior as Provence or classic are cleared of the usual “husk” in the form of decorative details. Designers leave the basis, made in expensive materials with clear geometry – textured wood, luxurious marble or granite. Metal details act as glamorous elements.
Hidden functionality
Picking up on the studio space trend, designers often combine the working kitchen area with the living space. Thus, the person involved in cooking remains in contact with the rest of the family.
To unite the zones, a policy of common color schemes, ergonomic arrangement and finishing materials is used. Movable structures are gaining relevance – for example, a kitchen set is hidden behind sliding panels. Eliminating unnecessary details, such combined solutions become especially relevant in small apartments, but they are also actively used for large areas.
Bar counter combined with an island
This solution is more often used in large open spaces. “Island” is relevant for a kitchen combined with a living room or a studio apartment. If you plan to abandon wall cabinets in your plans, then it is the island that can become a high-quality storage system – both open and closed. A bright trend is the use of lighting for a built-in showcase, which is especially important for an industrial style.
In the case of the “island”, replacing the dining table with a bar counter allows you to rationally organize the room.
Metal details in the interior
For kitchen interiors in 2024, it is recommended to actively use metal elements: stainless steel, copper, brass, chrome. In the design of the kitchen, metal will be included as:
details of mixers and fixtures;
legs of bar stools, racks;
cases and tables from stainless steel, facing of facades, an apron;
design of the hood;
as decorative inserts and trim.
Moreover, in this case, the metal can be used both on a large scale and as single accents. For furnishings in the concept of minimalism, a warm shade of brass will benefit. Metal goes well with the rough texture of wood, marble and granite.
Marble concept
Marble in the decoration of the kitchen continues to hold its position. It is practical, stylish, very elegant. Natural stone is able to ennoble even the simplest interior due to the richness of the natural texture.
In the interior of the kitchen, marble can be used:
for flooring and window sills;
design of an apron and countertops;
as a lining of the island and bar counter.
The favorite of the designers was “Arabescatto” – a beautifully polished marble from Italy, characterized by a gray-brown base with a spectacular ivory shade pattern.
No more handles
Mechanisms like “touch to open” will definitely be in trend for the next few years. Just the absence of handles on the surface allows you to more freely combine materials, distribute cabinets, makes operation and maintenance of furniture comfortable. A touch is enough to open the box.
Trendy colors
For the design of the kitchen, shades of green remain relevant. From mint to bottle, as well as greens muted with gray.
At the peak of fashion – kitchens in a dark design. Dark wood, marble, stone with muted surfaces and natural texture perfectly complement the laconic lines. The relief of the surface is created due to a slight difference in adjacent shades.
If you are a fan of black, add rich and thick tones to it – dark wood, coffee, taupe and gray. The atmosphere in the kitchen will noticeably change, it will become more comfortable.
Dark interior solutions are suitable for open-plan kitchens and well-lit areas. Dark furniture itself tends to darken the room. If there is no way to add lighting, it is worth reducing the dose of black to a few sections and supplementing with light surfaces.
How not to decorate the kitchen: anti-trend 2024
There are decorative techniques that should be abandoned:
No bright, accent colors – opt for monochrome, classic white or dark designs.
Impractical gloss was replaced by matte surfaces.
Open surfaces showing the “master’s bins” have replaced completely opaque and closed glass solutions.
There are no large handles with a complex design – either concise execution or complete absence.
Glass mosaic and patterned ceramic tiles have also lost their leading positions.
Living room: latest trends 2024
As with kitchens, simplicity, flowing lines and an emphasis on the comfort of the immediate owner are prioritised. Natural materials, a calm palette of shades and a comfortable design are chosen for decoration and furniture. At the same time, designers do not strive for minimalism in asceticism – luxury elements are not forbidden.
Living room in shades of green
A room where the family mainly communicates, where they receive guests and go about their daily business. Living room, expressed in 3 shades of green, will be a real hit this year:
for walls – pastel green sage;
as a highlight of the dominant surface – a shade of green foliage;
bluish green can be used for furniture upholstery and wall painting.
This palette is perfectly combined with a black and white base, sandy gray or beige, ginger and terracotta, pink powder.
Velvet upholstery
This material is good in both classic and modern interiors. Velvet is pleasant to the touch, goes well with natural shades, emphasizes the metallic sheen. If you use velvet, then as an accent, let it be beautiful and rich shades of pink garnet, amethyst, sapphire or emerald. For the background, one-color wall decoration should be selected.
Furniture trends
The style of the 70s has been actively adapting to minimalist trends for several years now. Rounded silhouettes and smooth lines are used in the design of armchairs and sofas. Such furniture is used in the setting as a bright accent, attracting attention with an unusual shape.
Interior solutions for the bedroom
The interior concept of the bedroom is based on the open character of the interior with high windows and high-quality lighting. It should be a comfortable space, zoned for different tasks: a bed, a dressing table, an armchair for relaxing and reading. The modern bedroom is simple and comfortable.
For finishing the floor and walls, wood with a pronounced pattern is recommended. Natural fabrics in natural shades complement the finish. All storage systems are removed in sliding wardrobes and behind mirrored facades.
Metal canopy
In a city apartment, according to designers, the place for a canopy is the best. However, instead of carved wood and heavy curtains, a lightweight metal structure is used. Thin racks are combined at the top with a frame. Such a frame can remain open, with fixed lamps, or it can be draped at will. This solution brings a clear geometry to the bedroom, sets the urban dynamics. Canopy frame can be painted black, chrome, matt or painted to match the walls.
Platform bed
Designers adapted Asian interior solutions in the form of moving the bed to the podium platform. The platform allows you to use the interior space: drawers, open shelving are built in, lighting and a small staircase are installed.
Podiums have ceased to be the prerogative of compact apartments, they are increasingly being used for bedroom interiors without a shortage of space.
Soft headboard
This piece of furniture also does not lose its position. Soft panels upholstered in fabric and leather, with a complex geometric or three-dimensional pattern, can be used both solo and in combinations. Designers combine complex backrests into 3D solutions, combining different shades and textures.
Bathroom Design Solutions 2024
Transforming a bathroom is a serious decision that requires significant financial investments. Designers offer novelties that will not lose their relevance over the next few years, their design is functional and based on the canons of aesthetics.
Open space
Designers offer the combination of a bathroom and a bedroom into a single space of rest, relaxation and pleasure. It is proposed to remove monolithic partitions and include a font in the interior as a visual accent. A lot of creative solutions for the realization of the idea are offered. The bathroom no longer hides in a dark corner, but turns into an independent area within a single interior.
Colored washbasins
In addition to traditional white products, collections from world manufacturers will delight you with a variety of furniture and sanitary ware palettes. For example, the Italian company Cielo ceramica offers products in delicate pastel shades.
The washbasins are available in grey, green, brown versions in high-quality sanitary ceramics. The cabinets are made in the same color, the set is complemented by a console made of brushed metal or bronze.
Designers offer washbasins in bright colors. Such options will stand out advantageously against the background of white or discreet pastel colors.
Matte dark plumbing in the interior
Metal accessories and interior details are still at the peak of popularity, but now the focus has shifted towards matte surfaces. Platinum, bronze, brass – shower sets, towel holders, faucets now do without chrome shine.
For equipment, clear contours are welcome, they fit perfectly into any concept – from minimalism to eclecticism.
Bathroom concrete
A cozy setting in shades of concrete is quite real if you use the relief textures of surfaces and add marble, wood, bronze and brass or bronze. For collections of porcelain stoneware, “concrete tiles” with a variety of textures are relevant – from “skin” to small mosaics. Wet sand, smoke or graphite – these colors are no longer the prerogative of only “industrial”, they are organically included in the traditional cozy environment.
Furniture design trends 2024
Designers, in addition to dark wood, emphasize the use of designer and handmade items in furnishing an apartment. Such furniture favorably emphasizes the individual character of the owner of the apartment. Also, preference is given to antiques that have been restored or adapted for a modern interior.
Conciseness of forms combined with metal
Modern design offers a mix of simple shapes, wavy contours and straight lines. Metal elements of upholstered furniture look light, lively and can add dynamics to the simplest environment. Designs can be painted neutrally, in black, be chrome-plated, shine with gold and silver, or be brightly colored.
Leather armchairs
Armchairs upholstered in natural or artificial leather will never go out of style. Classic is forever. Chesterfield chairs fit perfectly into the loft concept. Original models will become a high-quality accent of the interior.
Modern trends in lamp design
The surrounding nature and space motifs – designers draw inspiration from everything that the human eye can see. At the same time, natural motifs can be embodied in the most unexpected materials and technologies.
Manufacturers pay attention to lighting concepts, where handwork becomes an integral part: it can be beautifully molded frosted glass, manual assembly, modeling of individual elements.
The materials used are bone china, Murano glass, silver metal. To design ideas, designers even use the kintsugi relief technique.
The main idea of all concepts 2024
Whatever the designers suggest, the environmental friendliness of the space and environment for the person who lives in this house remains important. All used elements should please the owner – be pleasing to the eye, to the touch, comfortable in daily use and maintenance of the apartment. Only in this case the concept of environmental friendliness of the house works.
