5 Interior Design Trends You’ll Be Seeing a Lot Of In 2023

Interior design trends can be tricky to keep on top of. It’s significantly more difficult, not to mention costly, to spice up our homes as regularly as we do our wardrobes. It can feel that the minute we dress up our living space to match current trends, fashions quickly move on. This reminds us that there is one golden rule when it comes to interior design – your own personal taste should always come before what’s deemed fashionable, as it’s your house
and it’s important that your surroundings make you feel happy and comfortable! That being said, if you’re feeling a little stuck on how to decorate your space, these 2023 trends look universally chic in any home. To help you get started on revamping your home so that it’s trendy and 2023 approved, we’ve also hand-picked some beautiful pieces from our website that follow these trends.

1. Mixing New and Vintage Items

When it comes to interior design, one of the most difficult decisions is whether you want to go with a vintage, timeless feel or to make your home ultra modern – but why not do a bit of both? Modern decor adds a clean, polished feel to your home, while vintage designs inject the room with unique character, so employing both approaches is a great way to create a balanced space with a lot to offer.

Combining timeless, sophisticated design with a modern pop of colour, our Darby Velvet Sofa in the gorgeous Mustard shade is perfect for colour lovers, looking to make a statement with their decor while adding modern softness and vintage glamour to their space.

2. Curved Furniture

Why not play around with different shapes to transform the feel of your rooms? Curved furniture lends a beautiful softness to a space, and when you opt for circular designs of pieces such as mirrors, coffee tables and sideboards – things that we’re used to seeing with sharp edges – it immediately adds a quirkiness to your home without being too overpowering.

This super cute Cocoon Boucle Accent Chair is the perfect addition to any room and will add a soft feature to your space. The stunning boucle fabric and off-white shade will perfectly complement a variety of interiors while adding a touch of chic, cosy glamour to your space.

3. Feature Lighting

Gone are the days when lighting was merely a functional fixture in a room! Statement lighting, be it a striking ceiling light or an oversized lamp, can really elevate a room to the next level by
adding a bold touch of decoration as well as brightness. Lighting is also a great way to fill those spaces in your home where you feel there’s something missing, be it on a surface, some excess floor space or on large ceiling space. Designers are creating ever more elaborate light designs at the moment, and in 2023 we are making the most of them!

Our show-stopping luxury lighting collection has been handpicked by our interior design experts to brighten and beautify every room while adding style and character to your space.

4. Statement Marble Furniture

Marble is everywhere at the moment – coffee tables, kitchen surfaces, fireplaces, flooring, there are so many gorgeous uses for this material! It immediately gives any home that luxe feel, and thanks to our affordable manufacturers, this doesn’t necessarily have to mean a luxe price tag. Marble statement pieces are a Home Store Living favourite amongst our team of interior experts, the muted shades and subtle grain make it perfect for pairing with any colour scheme, so you can add a piece of marble furniture to any room and the elegance will be undeniable.

Our Dolce collection makes a real statement, with its sleek grey marble top, grey chrome finish and an X-shaped base, the pieces will perfectly complement a range of interiors while adding a touch of luxe glam to your space.

5. Black Accents

Many people might shy away from using black in their home colour palettes to avoid creating a dark, dingy, closed-in space, but black accents immediately create dimension and add an edginess to any room. Paler colour schemes are very much trending in homes at the moment, so using black is ideal for those areas that you feel could benefit from some punchy contrast. Whether you choose to add black via a table, decor pieces or upholstery, this classy, timeless trick is a super simple way to add some drama to your room.

Our designer rugs are the perfect way to include a chic touch of black and create depth and contrast in any space.

5 Home Decor Ideas That Can Boost Your Happiness

Everyone wants their home to look gorgeous, but most of us don’t think about how our home looks can affect our mood. Here’s some surprising hacks for a happy home that leaves stress at the door.

Less mess = destress

Having loads of unnecessary clutter about the house can make you feel overwhelmed and unsettled. The obvious answer is to clean out any nicnacs you don’t need but, failing that, a good chest of drawers or a snazzy sideboard with lots of drawers and cupboard space can hide it all out of sight and out of mind.

“Tidy home, tidy mind.”

Everyone ever

Light it up

If a room is dark and dingy, it’s not going to put you in the best mood – it strains your eyes and makes you sleepy. Instead, flood your room with energising light! We love LEDs because they’re really bright and cost much less to run compared to normal ones, so you can have as many as you like.

“Darkness cannot survive in the presence of light.”

Eckhart Tolle (pretty smart bloke)

Mother (nature) knows best

Humans weren’t designed for indoors, but it’s safe to say we love it now – spending 80 to 90% of our time there. Having a little callback to nature in your room with a flowery pattern or a faux plant gives you that calm, fresh feel without the stress of trying to keep real ones alive.

“To me, flowers are happiness.”

Stefano Gabbana (the Gabbana in Dolce & Gabbana)

Feel-good fabrics

It’s not all about looks. You never think about it but how your home feels can have a huge impact on your mood. There’s nothing like the squidge of your toes in a deep fluffy rug, or the feel of buttery velvet under your fingertips. By adding lots of lovely texture to your home you can take it from just nice looking to a full on warm, cosy sanctuary.

“It’s so fluffy, I’m gonna die!”

Agnes, Despicable Me

Inhale essential oils (exhale stress)

It’s called aromatherapy for a reason. Bringing a fresh new fragrance into your home is a treat for your nose. They banish bad smells and bad vibes, helping you breathe clearer and fully unwind. It might sound like a luxury, but it doesn’t have to cost you. Just one diffuser can make all the difference. Now for the hard part, choosing your scent…

Smell the roses. Smell the coffee. Whatever it is that makes you happy.
