As the year comes to a close, 2022 trend predictions are already popping up on the horizon. From Pantone’s color of the year –a beautiful violet-red called Very Peri– to the multiple fashion trends predicted to go viral, home interior designs and decor have their own list of trends to keep an eye out for too! 

From going back to a vintage aesthetic to the “Japandi” look, which is a mix between Scandinavian and Japanese interior design, homeowners can expect a spectrum of home interior design styles to go into style this 2022. 

In this article, we’ve narrowed down the top five trends to try in 2022, as well as tips on the various ways you can incorporate theseinto your space.

Make the old new again! 

With the emphasis on more sustainable living, it’s no surprise that the vintage aesthetic is all the rage nowadays. In fact, an updated take on vintage has started making it into the design radar in 2021 with nostalgic trends like Cottage Core and Grandmillenial.

The proliferation of DIY and upcycling tutorials on the internet reinforces this trend by encouraging small design projects.

If you have vintage or vintage-inspired pieces, you can breathe life into these new life by updating its color, finish, or any of its hardware. Not only does it create a refreshed look for your space, but it also makes your space feel more tailored for you. 

Another way to cop this look with newer items is to look for furniture and home items with retro shapes. 

Big and bold home designs

Experts predict that colorful patterns will be in style once again. Specifically, colors that are bright, bold, and found in nature likeyellow, burgundy, blue, and green.

If you don’t want to go all out, you can incorporate bright huesinto your home in smaller doses. For example:

• Use colorful, patterned wallpaper

• Hang pattered drapes

• Add pops of color through furniture or decorate. You can do this with one large piece such as a chair or a storage piece.

Keeping the home interior design neutral

If big and bold colors are not your speed, don’t worry! Neutral color palettes and Japandi designs are still predicted to be trendy in 2022. Japandi is all about blending in the Japanese aesthetic with Scandinavian design.

This means refreshing, zen-like spaces that incorporate a ton of light, natural materials. This style is not only pleasing and relaxing to the eyes, but it put a premium on functionality and practicality. This makes it great for working spaces like your home office or kids’ study room.

Aside from using neutral tones, opting for curved furniture – bed frames, sofas, end tables – is one of the key ways to achieve this design. Take inspiration from these spaces that perfectly blend wabi-sabi—the concept of finding beauty in imperfection—with Scandi design sensibilities.

Spruce up multi-functional spaces

Even as hybrid work makes its way into 2022, multi-use spaces will continue to trend.

If you wish to spruce up your home office or study, you can make it feel more special by adding home interior design elements from any of the new trends. Perhaps incorporate a Japandi-inspired office desk, or a bespoke reading chair in Very Peri.

And if work and school items have accumulated over the past year, update your storage options, even using these to serve other purposes. For example, shelves that can house supplies and function as a room divider.

Embrace Greenery 

Nature elements—a global phenomenon that started in 2020—will continue to trend. While plantitos and plantitas have started their own covetable urban gardens, if you wish to add greenery into your space (but worry about your black thumb!) there are other ways to do this!

You can add artwork featuring flora and fauna elements, or furniture in organic materials. Lastly, don’t be afraid to explore faux plants, and add these to rooms that don’t get enough sunlight or could use a more relaxing vibe. 

Incorporate art in your Home Interior Design

Something that will never go out of style is artwork. Whether your space sports a clean, modern aesthetic or a quirkier, more colorful look, paintings, sculptures, and functional art can always be incorporated into one’s home.
