We asked eight of our top bloggers which home design trends they were most excited about this year. From mattes to metallics, home décor trends for this year offer plenty of options. Read on to learn more about each blogger’s favorite trend.
“Incorporating fresh accents of copper or brass can add a beautiful depth to classic metallic tones like gold and silver.”
– Lia Griffith of liagriffith.com
“I’m loving mattes for this year. The last few years have been all about the bling: shiny, glittery, sparkly metallics. I think the matte finishes are getting set to take over. Matte black and white hardware are super subtle yet completely elegant and I think we’re going to see a lot more of that in the upcoming year. Matte finishes are less in-your-face and more of a team player.”

“I’m loving the trend towards mixing modern design elements with classic, more traditional ones, resulting in spaces that have fresh and simple clean lines but also plenty of warmth and character.”
– Kris Jarrett of drivenbydecor.com
“I can’t get enough of geometric and tribal prints! I’ve loved seeing them pop up in everything from accents, to kitchen backsplashes, to trendy removable wallpaper. To add instant life to a room, I recommend incorporating one bold and bright print, even if it is just a throw pillow!”
– Haeley Giambalvo of designimprovised.com
“This year seems to be a fresh beginning for many with a focus on less is more. This year I am most excited to see mixed metals throughout the home, especially in the main living areas. I think we will see people make bold choices that might break the rules a little.”
– Ashley Thurman of cherishedbliss.com
“This year is all about refreshing, decluttering, and organizing. For the year ahead, many people have vowed to keep their home as simple and stress-free as possible. I’m also bringing it back to basics by setting a neutral foundation in each room and adding a few simple, monochromatic pops of color in shades like relaxing blue to bring each space to life.”
– Katie Meyers of meyersstyles.com
“Black and white and contrast all over. In short, those are the trends I’m looking forward to this year. Using contrast in not only color, but also in the style of your décor. Mixing modern with ornate and rustic with contemporary.”
– Amy Goetz of theblissfulbee.porch.com
“I’m absolutely adoring the big, bold patterns and colors that are gently peeking out of a sea of neutral. Big floral wall paper, a jade couch or fuchsia foot stool, a navy velvet headboard, mixed effortlessly with existing decor to bring in an element of fun and whimsy on a grand scale. Paired with the absolute embrace of metallics, oversized patterns and super saturated colors are totally rocking this year. I’m itching to get some of the effortless chic an unexpected couch, chair or rug brings in my home!”
