The latest trends in home and apartment interior design

A house or flat is our fortress, which should primarily be functional and secondly aesthetic. In theory, this means that every house and every flat is beautiful and functional if it suits its occupants. In practice, new interior design trends are constantly appearing on the market, from which one can draw inspiration when furnishing interiors. What is currently hot in apartment and house interior design?

Japan, not just on a plate

Japan's rich culture and art have been inspiring interior designers for several years now. Currently, its combination with the Scandinavian style, known as Japandi style, is breaking popularity records. This extraordinary combination of the ascetic life of the Japanese with Scandinavian simplicity and functionality. Interiors decorated in Japandi style are minimalist, and each piece of furniture serves a specific function. The whole is finished with soft accessories, often inspired by nature. Also important in this style are the colours - subdued shades reign supreme, but space is equally important - there should be as much of it as possible.

Back to nature

The second noticeable interior design trend is the return to nature. Inspirations from nature can be seen in the use of appropriate materials - wood, stone, wicker, bamboo, ceramics, glass, and metal. Moreover, some of these raw materials are also used for wall and floor coverings. Glass tops, openwork tables, rattan armchairs and chairs have been standard equipment in flats and houses for several years. The colours of walls and furniture are also important - here, too, nature reigns supreme. Earth and water colours, which combine chic and minimalism, are very popular. The palette of most frequently used colours includes all shades of brown, beige, grey, and shades of yellow and orange. Recycled furniture and DIY items are still in vogue - here, their combination with elegant accessories that create a cosy atmosphere is essential.
