Such has been the case with 2019—which brings with it the opportunity to leave behind old designs and bring new ones aboard. Change is the only constant as the home interior designs turn on a new leaf each year.

It is crucial to stay up-to-date with the ever-changing trends. This awareness helps you implement the latest trends while renovating your home. These changes will add modernity to your home and make you feel more connected with it.

What’s Trending in 2019 Home Design?

The year 2019 design trends are based around tech and warmth at the same time. Here are some trending home designs you should embrace.

Sustainable Design

This approach follows the minimalist design trends. Sustainable home design is all about being efficient in the use of space material. It also emphasizes the purchasing behavior hence introducing a new spectrum of possibilities. These designs involve asking questions about the materials used in manufacturing each item to being sure about the timelessness of the item before you purchase it.

The Love of Nature

The year 2019 is said to unleash the prime human instinct of the love of nature. This year seeks more interest in biophilia—focusing on the connecting between humankind and nature. Organic materials like wood, stone, and natural light won’t be kept at bay anymore. Even though society today is driven towards technology, proximity to nature is never a bad thing to ask.

Smart Appliances

Homeowners that are looking to modernize their life prefer adding technology to their home. You can choose from several high-end products that let you take control through talking. 2019 is all about connecting fans, windows, doors, and appliances with products—Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomePod—for a connected home.  These products offer seamless designs and can integrate into the existing layouts effortlessly.

Bold Backsplashes

Kitchens emitting similar vibe have had their run. There will be more boldness to kitchens through patterned tiles or color choices. It is time that this part of the house comes off as bold and appealing.

Industrial Look

The use of concrete, quartz, and metal is said to come alive for 2019. A home with black or charcoal gray doors is reputed to sell $5,000 higher than other houses in the neighborhood.  Matte black and bronze are set to dominate yet again as their combination grants an industrial vibe. Match moody blues and gray shades while selecting appliances to add more value and to increase distinction and intrigue through layers.

What’s Falling out of Favor

2019 bids goodbye to several notable home design trends of the last year. Here are some elements that are not trending anymore.

Millennial Pink

Color schemes that put stress on your eyes are on their way out. Cool, earth-based colors are replacing them. Shades of blue and neutrals continue to sit at the top. These colors have been reported to drive more dollars when used in the kitchen and bathrooms. This year has also bid farewell to the millennial pink color. It gained traction in 2018 after several designers posted pink color furniture photos on their social media feeds.

Mid-Century Look

This look has said to lure people away because of its timelessness. But homeowners are now over it, and they report feeling trapped in a time capsule. The mid-century approach is now being replaced with a more layered and mixed up look to spice thing up.

Rustic

Since 2019 is all about simplification, the regular shiplap trend will experience a modern twist. Modern glass and metal doors will replace age-old barn doors. Moreover, the rustic material covered look is usurped by bolder and simpler finishes. Lastly, shaded bulbs trend again as they complement the overall glow of the interior.

Final Thoughts

If you look at the larger picture, you’ll witness a certain degree of bold sophistication in the 2019 design trends. Designers and homeowners are now welcoming a combination of nature and technology to their homes. Similarly, the trends that picked up steam for a short while last year are falling out of favor as homeowner taste continues to evolve.
