Create Your Own Interior Design Trends

July 14, 2016

Over the last few years most of us have experienced a change of thinking, influenced by the global recession. The biggest question is, "Do I need this or do I just want it because it is the latest trend in interior design?" Are you guilty of this? Previously have you gone in to do a remodel and decided it's easier to strip everything out and start again? Or thrown away perfectly good furniture because it doesn't suit your new style of theme that you want in your living room? Tossed out perfectly good curtains because you were sick of the color? Or just shopped for something to pass the time? I am sure that we will all be guilty of one of these things, but over the last few years, have you changed your thinking?

I believe that the greatest new trend in interior design and decorating is being resourceful. Using what we have and making it go further, we are going back to the old way of thinking, the time after the World War II when there were shortages of things, people had to make do with what they could muster, this was a great time for invention as it made people get creative and inventive. I also believe that we are going back to our roots and learning not to be wasteful. When we do purchase new furniture we are thinking about the long-term investment and/or sustainability of the pieces. This includes the home accessories and/or Mexican art that we place in our homes.

The best place to find color trends is by looking at paint and fabric manufacturers new swatches and product launches. They design all their color ranges in advance and dictate to a degree which color combinations are available. They have reliable information from color trend companies and pay a lot of money to make sure they design and place their product where it will be popular and purchased.
