Interior stylist Justine Wilson is forecasting a dynamic shift in interior design trends this year, set to redefine our homes. Here she shares an insightful glimpse into the four key styling movements poised to influence the way we live and decorate our spaces in 2024.
Bold colours: A vibrant renaissance
Bid farewell to the era of subdued tones! Justine predicts a resurgence of vibrant, audacious colours adorning walls and furniture in 2024. “The trend leans heavily into embracing bold and striking hues,” she notes. From vividly painted walls to colourful furniture accents, kitchens, and bathrooms, homes will be alive with rich, daring colour palettes. Expect a riot of primary colours and soft pastels, creating a spectrum of striking combinations throughout living spaces, bringing a vivacious charm to interiors.
Ultra-Minimalism: Embracing the essence of simplicity
In contrast, she foresees a surge in ultra-minimalist interiors defined by sleek lines and functional simplicity. “Clean, sparse spaces with sharp lines and minimal decorative elements will captivate minimalist enthusiasts,” she explains. This trend resonates with the shift towards smaller living spaces, advocating for futuristic, visually sleek interiors where functionality reigns supreme. Joinery will take centre stage, providing multifunctional solutions to optimise space without compromising on style.
Ultra-Maximalism: Opulence and eclectic grandeur
Drawing inspiration from grand palaces and country estates, ultra-maximalism embraces an abundant fusion of patterns, colours, and ornate decor. “This style celebrates an exuberant mix of patterns, art-filled walls, and an eclectic array of furnishings,” Justine elaborates. From gallery-style walls adorned with captivating art to collections proudly displayed, homes will exude opulence and personality, blending old-world charm with contemporary flair.
Pioneer chic: Back to rustic roots
Justine identifies “Pioneer Chic” as a trend reverting to rustic, homely interiors reminiscent of settlers’ practical yet charming homes. “Think weathered wood, vintage ceramics, and utilitarian furnishings,” she describes. This style champions worn textures like brick and stone, evoking a sense of authenticity and simplicity. Embracing nature, this trend encourages the creation of gardens and repurposing vintage finds, encapsulating a humble and timeless aesthetic.
