Interior Design Trends to Look Out For in 2020

When your home's interior reflects your personality, you give your guests a memorable and comfortable experience every time they visit.

Knowing the latest interior design furniture trends¹ will make your living space stand out in 2020.

The return of the statement piece

How many interior design catalogs over the past five years have featured the same white, black, grey and red color scheme? Too many. Minimalism was all in during the last half of the 2010s, but let's be honest, minimalism isn't very fun.

In 2020, expect to see color and statement pieces make a big comeback. Maybe it's an inviting leather love seat² or an assortment of richly colored armchairs³. The details are up to you, after all, it's your home, making sure you feel comfortable in it and enjoy its style should be a priority.

If you want to take your home from the 2010s into the 2020s, installing some statement pieces and color in your favorite rooms is a sure-fire way to spice up your home.

A sophisticated spin on classic countryside style

The stereotypical live-laugh-love American countryside style is almost as played out as monochromatic minimalism. So, no small wonder it's due for a refresh.

Expect to see interior designers in 2020 taking the countryside aesthetic for a more sophisticated spin that focuses on elegant, European pieces. This trend seeks to combine antique decor with a more modern aesthetic and muted color schemes.

If you want to check out some piece reflective of this style, you can't go wrong with Liberty's dining room furniture⁴ and serving set⁵. If you want an aesthetic that's a bit more universal and less busy, a classic British countryside look is a great place to start.

The resurrection of textures

One of the easiest ways to lend a room some real character is to build up textures. This can be done by using different material types⁶ next to one another, or by building up a room using various patterns.

As interior designers in 2020 push onwards in their quest to create unique, comfortable living spaces, expect to see different textures, like leather and velvet, make a significant resurgence alongside various patterns.

For example, clothing brands like C.R. Laine⁷ are covering furniture pieces like armchairs and ottomans⁸ with one-of-a-kind textures that are sure to make a room pop. Similarly, brands like Leather Italia are providing state-of-the-art leather pieces⁹ that can take a room to the next level of sophistication and style.

Browse through some catalogs and figure out what kind of textures appeal to you. Then, try to come up with a color theme that appeals to you. Maybe you want to use complementary colors, like orange and blue. Perhaps more similar, muted colors appeal to you. Whatever the case, getting a range of textures and materials suited to your color scheme can help you bring a room to life without overwhelming visitors.
