From interior design to color, the most popular trends are always changing. But one thing remains the same: the desire for a comfortable living room. Let’s take a closer look at these five living room design trends in 2024 to see what designers are recommending for comfort this year.
Put color first.
Whether you embrace the warm color palettes expected to surge this year or you go bold with dark hues and patterns, color is making a comeback.
Like we recently shared in Meet the Pantone Color of the Year 2024 Peach Fuzz, it’s one of the leading warm hues expected to show up in living rooms this year. Believed to help create a sense of connection, warm colors are those with yellow, orange and red undertones.
And as far as those bold colors and patterns go, they are likely to show up on walls, furnishings, art, décor and even appliances.
It’s all about texture.
Are you searching for ways to add depth and interest to your living room? Achieve that overall inviting feel by combining a variety of textures and materials. Incorporate soft furnishings with a pattern. Add a vintage end table for a contrast with hardwood.
One of the truly bold living room design trends in 2024 is adding texture to walls, from upholstery to plaster to wallpaper.
Incorporate heirlooms, vintage pieces and handcrafted items.
Technically, this isn’t a new trend. But it’s not going away either. Decorating your space with family heirlooms and vintage pieces provides familiarity and, therefore, comfort. Handcrafted pieces add timeless appeal to spaces too.
The goal is to strive for a balance between the past and the present, with pieces that have meaning, history and superb craftsmanship.
Statement lightening.
Could this be lighting’s biggest year? With more and more innovative techniques featuring blown glass, jewel-like fixtures and bolder sconce choices, for instance, statement lighting is definitely expected to shine bright in 2024.
Create a multipurpose zone.
In today’s modern world, sometimes our living room needs to be a little more than a gathering spot. That’s why one of the top living room design trends in 2024 is creating a multipurpose zone. Make your living space multi-functional by creating zones like a work zone, a lounging zone and a gaming zone.
