With the new year comes a fresh start, and this is particularly true in the world of interior design. As we look ahead to 2023, there are a few key emerging trends that are worth taking note of, both in terms of color choices and sustainability, and your Main Street home offers the perfect canvas to try out your favorite trends. 

Adding in statement colors

One of the most prominent color trends for 2023 is the use of bold, statement-making hues. This year's Pantone Color of the Year is Viva Magenta, a bright and energetic shade that will impact any space. Whether you use it as an accent wall or incorporate it into your furniture and decor, Viva Magenta is the perfect way to add some pizzazz to your interior design.

Making sustainable choices

Another trend to watch for in 2023 is the continued focus on sustainability. As consumers become more aware of their impact on the environment, they are looking for ways to incorporate eco-friendly materials and practices into their homes. This includes using natural materials like bamboo and cork, choosing furniture made from recycled materials, and incorporating energy-efficient lighting and appliances.

Incorporating vintage pieces

In terms of design styles, the eclectic look continues to be popular in 2023. This style allows you to mix and match different elements, creating a completely personalized space. With this trend, you can combine vintage and contemporary pieces, play with patterns and textures and incorporate elements from different cultures and time periods. Whatever you choose, you’ll bring a unique sense of style to every room.  

Creating a calm space

Minimalism is also still in style, but there's a twist this year. Instead of focusing on clean lines and sparse decor, this year's minimalism is all about creating a sense of tranquility and calm—think natural materials, soft textures and soothing colors. Incorporating elements like indoor plants, water features, and light therapy can help create a relaxing, Zen-like atmosphere in your home.

Embrace a bold look

Finally, we are seeing a resurgence of the 80s and 90s in interior design. From neon lights and pop art to chunky furniture and graphic patterns, this trend is all about embracing the bold, playful spirit of those decades. Whether you go all-out with a retro theme or incorporate a few key elements, this trend will surely add some fun and energy to your space.
