What’s In and Out for 2024

Similar to the fashion industry, the realm of interior design is also influenced by the ever-

changing trends that evolve at a rapid pace. Determining what designs are timeless and what

are fleeting can be quite a challenge. Additionally, predicting the upcoming trends pose a

significant challenge as well.

 

I feel quietly confident that we have veered away from the path of unattainable and impractical

home minimalism that seemed to dominate interior trends in the past decade. Instead, we are

witnessing a shift towards embracing patterns, displaying book stacks, utilizing open shelving,

and adorning walls with art arrangements. The focus is not on creating a messy environment,

but rather on crafting a timeless space that feels lived-in, functional, and enjoyable.

 

Allow me to guide you through the 2024 journey to stay current with a scaled-down version that

complements and fits in with the classic La Maison style … a space you can always grow

with—even when your style or trends change.

 

WALLS:

 

Patterned Wallpaper: Whether you’re in a cozy nook or a grand space, embrace the versatility of patterns – architectural, floral, or rustic.

Limewash Finishes: Soft, textural hues ranging from browns to pinks, adding depth and warmth to your walls.

 

ARCHITECTURE:

 

Exposed Wood Beams: Infuse character into your interiors with the timeless appeal of exposed wood.

FURNITURE:

 

Bold Statement Sofas: Modular designs allow you to define your living space, with options like upholstered capitoneé, comfortable, and enveloping statement sofas.

 

Arched Shape Mirrors: Explore the allure of arched mirrors, both floor and wall, to add a touch of elegance.

 

Antique Decor and Furnishings: Bring the charm of the past into the present with unique antique pieces.

 

Daybeds: A versatile addition that combines style and functionality.

 

Wood and Stone Furniture: Natural materials continue to dominate, creating a harmonious and grounded aesthetic.

 

DECOR:

Colorful Dinner Plates: Muted tones for the La Maison lovers, adding a splash of color to your dining experience.

 

 

Handmade Ceramic Dinnerware: Bring an artisanal touch to your table settings.

 

Functional Clean Lines: Organized kitchen cabinets for a clutter-free and efficient cooking space.

 

Sculptured Art: Elevate your space with art that tells a story and captures the imagination.

Natural Fiber Rugs: Opt for sisal, jute, or seagrass rugs for a grounding and eco-friendly touch.

 

 

Artwork Statements: Go big with abstract and vibrant canvases that become the focal point.

 

Dimmable Table Lamps: Create ambiance with adjustable lighting.

 

Chrome Accents: Incorporate chrome in various elements like legs, lamps, or vases.

 

Finding Beauty in Imperfection: Celebrate the uniqueness of imperfections.

 

Indoor Palm Trees: Add a touch of greenery for a fresh and lively atmosphere.

 

 

OUT – TRENDS THAT BID ADIEU:

 

Ultra-Modern Minimalism: Shift away from stark minimalism to embrace a more vibrant and personalized maximalism.

 

Bright White Lighting: Soften the ambiance with warmer lighting.

 

Dark Walls and Grey Walls: Opt for lighter tones to create an airy and inviting space.

 

Sliding Barn Doors: Step away from the rustic charm of sliding barn doors.

 

Uncomfortable Sofas: Say goodbye to seating that sacrifices comfort for style; 2024 calls for a perfect fusion of both.

 

Precious Rugs that are too nice to walk on: Embrace practicality without compromising aesthetics—rugs should be enjoyed, not just admired.

Fiddle Leaf Figs: Make room for alternative greenery options as the iconic fiddle leaf fig takes a step back.

 

Pans Hanging Over the Island Bench: Opt for sleek and organized kitchen spaces, bidding adieu to the trend of pans hanging overhead.

 

Geometrics, Gingham, and Insect Motifs Pattern Designs: Step away from these patterns and embrace a diverse range of textures and designs.

 

Dining Benches: Mix it up with unique dining chairs, leaving the era of dining benches behind.

 

All-White Interiors, Kitchens, or Bathrooms: Explore a more eclectic and vibrant color palette, moving away from the simplicity of all-white spaces.

 

Pale Greens: Richer and bolder shades take the spotlight as pale greens make their exit.

 

Curved Sofas: Clean lines and bold statements are in; say farewell to the era of curved sofas.

 

Ginghams: Make space for a more diverse range of patterns and textures, leaving behind the classic gingham patterns.

 

As Susan Klimala of TKS Design Group suggests, 2024 welcomes a grown-up maximalism, where color, texture, and geometric shapes take center stage. It’s a celebration of individuality and a departure from the constraints of ultra-modern minimalism.

 

In bidding farewell to the design trends of the past, La Maison opens the door to a new era of interior aesthetics in 2024. This year invites you to merge timeless elegance with contemporary freshness. From captivating patterned wallpapers to comfortable yet statement-making sofas, the options are as diverse as they are exciting.
