With this summer projected to be one of the hottest on record, we take a look at some of the coolest upcoming interior trends.
SUSTAINABILITY
LESS IS MORE
TASTEFUL MINIMALISTIC CLUTTERS
BIOPHILIA - EMphasizing the relationship between humankind and nature
“For 2019, there is greater interest in biophilia–emphasizing the relationship between humankind and nature, and the connections between the two. Natural, organic materials–such as wood floors, stone, and daylight and plant life–remind us of the exterior and brings the outside and nature, in. We are machine- and technology-driven society, but nostalgic about past processes and handiwork, so opportunities for custom Millwork and crafted materials are very important.”—Angie Lee of FXCollaborative
WHat is completely out in 2019 is the concept of gendered rooms

NATURAL MATERIALS
INNOVATIVE USES OF METAL
Minimalist art is out- suggest cultural/ rustic paintings IN
IN: FLORAL FABRICS AND WALLPAPERS
"The traditional beauty of floral patterns, either abstracted or straight up chintz, will be the pattern to use." — Erin Gates of Erin Gates Design
COOL GRAYS = IN
IN: SUSTAINABLE, HANDMADE PIECES
"Items made by hand using sustainable materials like jute, rice paper, and clay will be in, in 2019. We see people needing these grounding elements in their homes as a way to feel more in touch with the earth and their roots." — Kristen Peña of K Interiors
IN: FOUR-POSTER BEDS
"In uncertain times, people tend to want spaces that bring a sense of comfort and safety. A four-poster bed provides that type of feeling. It's the closest thing you can get to a hug from a piece of furniture." — Amy Sklar of Sklar Design
IN: LIGHT WOOD FLOORS
"Light-colored floors are making a comeback, thanks to the homeowner's growing desire for a more airy and open look and feel. In shades of birch, beachy white and light oak, these floors reflect more light, and can transition from casual to luxurious, without sacrificing comfort."— Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
OUT: CHERRY CABINETS
"Warmth in the kitchen is no longer achieved with this traditional go-to finish. Painted cabinets in deep blues, grays and black are dominating both modern and traditional kitchen designs." — Kesha Franklin of Halden Interiors
IN: NOT SKIMPING ON COMFORT
"From soft carpets underfoot to a sofa so comfortable you want to lounge for hours. Spending the money to get these basic things right are very important and are incredibly gratifying. I always look my clients in the eye and tell them, 'Buy once, cry once'." — Randy Powers of J Randall Powers Interiors
OUT: LACQUERED FURNITURE
"Shiny doesn’t always equate to pretty. A little sparkle in a room is always visually pleasing, but an overly polished piece can become trite very quickly." — Randy Powers of J Randall Powers Interiors
KITCHEN BACKSPLASH
IN: BOLD WALLS
"At Clare, our customers are getting a lot more adventurous when it comes to color. Current Mood, which is a dramatic, moody deep green is one of our top five bestsellers and I love seeing people incorporating bolder color choices in their home." — Nicole Gibbons of Clare
IN: 90% WHITE, 10% COLOR
"There was a moment while I was watching the Spring/Summer Louis Vuitton show by Virgil Abloh that I though...'THIS is it!' I was inspired by how the collection was built on a foundation of white, but gently unfolded to embrace confident hues with bracing edge. The look was fresh, bold, and youthful. For recent project, I created a bedroom for a young lady that incorporated this trend. Tempered by neutral layers and tons of texture, it's a design that reflects this "of the moment" color recipe while staying true to the personality of the client." - Jon Call of Mr. Call Designs
IN: KARARA Marble
ANTIQUES
Lesley Unruh
"Ubiquitous design is now a thing of the past while antiques are an exciting nod to the design future. People want their rooms to have soul, a personality, and tell a story.
