Looking back to our design trends of the year blog, we decided to put together a space to help visualize how you can put those trends into action.
- First up is the space itself. We chose to show a rooftop deck which is a mixed-use space. Mixed-use spaces can help your home have more to offer, and in this case an outdoor area where you can enjoy the nice weather without leaving your home!
- Second is the curved outdoor couch, remember curves and even double curves are hot if you can manage to get your hands on them.
- Third is the use of color. Contrast with colors such as the black and white as well as the reds and blues are another easy way to make a space pop. In this scene we even used a lot of the colors we showed in our colors of the year blog. The warm red of the deck mixes well with the softer whites and tans of the table, couch, and chairs and the blue rug is a nice accent that contrasts well to tie the room together.
We hope this template can make it easier for you to incorporate some of these trends into your own home. The big takeaway should be the overall trends of color, curves, and mixed-use. Don’t be afraid to experiment and make your space look the way you want it to because after all it is yours!
