Going Bold

2021 was a year where people expressed their individuality through unique colors, which can provide emotion and feeling to a room! With that being said, color therapy is on the rise. Popular colors we expect to see include pinks, burnt oranges, and peacock blues to represent a tropical getaway, as well as greens to mirror nature’s elements. There will be more unique color contrasts in the kitchen, between the countertops and backsplash, or the cabinets and the island. With the rise and focus on creating a home we love to stay in, people will want to bring as much life to their indoor space as possible in 2022—color is an amazing and affordable way to do so.

Enhancing Outdoors

Outdoor spaces continue to be in the spotlight with people spending more time at home. Homeowners are investing in outdoor rooms. Pools, water features, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and extensive seating and dining areas are high on wish lists. Materials are more organic and natural, such as travertine. Outdoor kitchens will feature commercial-style grills, refrigerators, and wine coolers. Indoor rooms opening up to terraces with a series of French doors or doors that fold back is another way to connect with the outside.

Comfortable Bedrooms

As working from home becomes part of our everyday lives, bedrooms have become increasingly multifunctional, with space for a work area, exercise, and that all-important sense of relaxation. In 2022 it’s predicted popular bedroom interiors will include comforting neutral tones, and textured wall coverings or paneling used to add a sense of luxury to sleep spaces. When it comes to bedding, layered natural textures like linen and cotton in palettes of soft neutral tones are set to take center stage.
