We can’t help but be excited about the new year ahead of us, and as we head into 2021, we’re finding inspiration in the ever-changing meaning of home, making the most of our spaces, and creating self-expression in every corner.

Although we don’t typically subscribe to the idea of “trends” when it comes to design, there are a few things we’re looking forward to seeing more of as our homes continue to evolve in the new year.

Here are some design elements we talked about on our latest visit with The Today Show:

Curved & Soft Silhouettes

We love how curved pieces are making their way into modern designs through everything from seating to consoles. Soft silhouettes bring contrast to sleek, streamlined elements, adding a sophisticated, timeless feeling to any space. 

Pattern-Heavy Spaces.

Pattern brings so much character and personality to a room, and this year, we’re expecting to see more patterns used in unexpected ways. Whether it’s a whimsical wallpaper in a kid’s room or a statement-making patterned floor, we’re here for it! 

Statement Ceilings.

Before you treat the ceiling like an afterthought, consider making a statement to add more dimension. We love adding beams, wall treatments, paint, and even wallpaper to ceilings to bring interest. While you wouldn’t think that a ceiling would make such a big difference in your space, it’s amazing what some texture and tone will do.
