In the interior design sector, the keyword for 2023 is eco-sustainability. In addition to a careful choice of materials, it will also be essential to make the best use of the available spaces, make targeted purchases and convey a sense of nature also on the aesthetic side. Let’s find out what will be the main furniture trends for 2023, on a journey through colors, shapes, materials and styles!
The styles of furniture
We are sure of one thing: in 2023 we won’t need to be afraid to dare! In a mix of colors, patterns, materials and decorative styles, each home will become even more unique and special. Nature will have a special place, which will find the right place in every room: from the bedroom textiles, in colors that recall the earth, to the green plants in the living room, capable of instilling serenity and peace. But let’s get to the heart of the question: what are the trendiest furniture styles this year?
- Minimalism. If 2022 has taught us anything, it is certainly about eliminating the superfluous and transforming our homes into small oases of peace. It is therefore not surprising that among the furnishing trends of 2023, minimalism in a Zen key stands out, characterized by light woods, oriental prints, neutral colors and green plants.
- Marine style. Declined in its most current variant, also known as global coastal, this style immediately brings a holiday air to any environment. It recalls the atmosphere of slow summer days and the simplicity of fishing villages: white reigns undisputed, in various shades, embellished with rattan details and decorations in various shades of blue.
- Mix & match. In 2023 the idea of combining apparently opposite and incompatible styles will be completely cleared. This is how we see looks such as rustic vogue blossom, in which family furniture is combined with modern furnishings, and vintage glamor, where period elements are combined with ultra-modern and extravagant materials.
- Boho chic. Now a great trend for several years, the boho style is dressed in new bright and bright colors. On a neutral base, red and yellow textiles, wall prints in pastel colors and creative patterns of ethnic influence stand out. The result is a mixture of elements typical of the bohemian style.
The furniture
Interior design enthusiasts will have noticed it: in recent years furnishings with rounded, soft and sinuous shapes have come back into fashion. Typical of the slightly retro styles, they find the right space even in modern and contemporary settings. For 2023, the rounded design will influence a little bit everything: from sofas to rugs, from coffee tables to wall mirrors.
But it doesn’t stop there! After 2022, many have had to reinvent the spaces at home, creating corners dedicated to work from home, the gym and relaxation. Hence, space-saving furniture flourishes, ready to transform when needed: a coffee table opens and becomes a desk, a sofa becomes a comfortable bed for watching a movie, and so on.
And materials
Not only the shapes, but also the textiles soften. In 2023 velvet is back in fashion, capable of making any environment elegant: it will find its perfect place in the living room, combined with leather, cotton and silk. Although it may seem like a material with an old-fashioned look, it adapts very well to environments in a minimal or Scandinavian style, especially in lighter colors. For an eccentric touch, we recommend decorative pillows in fuchsia velvet, perhaps to be placed on a dark blue sofa.
But it won’t be all about velvet! As we said at the beginning of our article, sustainability will play a very important role throughout 2023. Most of the materials with which we will dress our homes will be eco-compatible, such as wood, glass, jute and rattan. Green light also to recycled raw materials, ecological paints, recycled furniture.
Colors
The color palette of 2023 will feature shades reminiscent of nature. At the base of everything there are neutral colors, which never go out of fashion: ivory, beige, gray… these shades can be combined with each other to create a monochromatic look, or combined with different shades capable of lighting and emphasizing them. Particular attention is paid to carpets, which with their nuances become innovators of the mood of an entire room.
With red, electric blue, fuchsia or yellow details, a super colorful pop environment can be recreated in an instant. Go ahead also for different shades of green, which evoke the calm of the countryside meadows or the mystery of woods and forests: in this case, we recommend the combination with different tones of beige and brown. If you prefer a minimal look, however, the ideal is to insert black details with clean and essential lines. A few examples? Metal bookcases, mirrors and small decorations with a modern design.
The decorations
Always with a view to sustainability, the trendy decorations for the home in 2023 are dedicated to recycling and handmade. Small objects handmade by local artisans find space on shelves, consoles and bookcases; vintage plate sets bring a touch of originality to the kitchen; Modern antiques, such as retro-style telephones, create a unique atmosphere at the entrance or living room. The secret? Don’t be afraid to dare, even in mixing apparently too different styles!
