Design FOMO

Fear of missing out is a real thing people. Whether we want to admit it or not, its hard to stomach when your friend next door pulls off a phenomenal redesign of their living room using the most recent interior design trends. With that in mind, here are a few trends to consider when doing a remodel or room reno:

Color: We’re calling it – blue and yellow is going to be the next big color combo. Not only do they have complementary color harmony, but they evoke correlating emotions. Yellow is vibrant and cheerful while blue represents creativity and serenity.

Think outside of the box: Hardwoods in a bathroom. Stone in a bedroom. Modern day design calls for unique design elements in pattern, texture and materials. Maybe a nice checkered design in marble? Think about it.

Everyone hangs out in the kitchen: According to a recent survey by Pollfish, next to the living room the kitchen is the room of the home most considered for a flooring remodel. Modern day kitchen flooring has evolved. Consider playful options like a patterned hardwood or stylish tile design. Don’t hesitate to play with shapes or even materials like cork, epoxy, bamboo and concrete. 

Focus on the niches: One fun trend is a focus on the less obvious areas of the home for pops of design: hallways, laundry rooms or the pantry. These normally smaller spaces can further accentuate design features and often are less costly to update.

‘Our designers stay on top of what is trending, not only nationally but what they are observing in the area,’ says Bill Greene, owner of Lake Murray Floor Covering. ‘In the 25 years we’ve been in business, trends have certainly changed. We have to stay current so we can be true expert design consultants for our customers.’
