Brown as a Statement Color

According to the interior designers, brown will be popular in 2024 for walls, furniture, and accents, but it may not be considered a "statement" color. While some designers believe that brown can create a soothing and grounded space, others argue that it is more of a neutral color and should be used as an anchoring color rather than a statement color.

Herringbone

Herringbone is a pattern that designers are liking, particularly in flooring. It brings a fresh yet old-school vibe to a space. However, opinions vary on using herringbone for backsplashes. Some designers suggest using smaller scale tiles for a more tailored look, while others feel that herringbone in backsplashes is not quite there yet. Overall, herringbone is a classic pattern that can be used in various ways to create a statement in a room.

Bouclé in the Bedroom

Designers agree that bouclé fabrics can add a luxurious and warm touch to furniture in a bedroom. They suggest using bouclé for bed frames, chairs, or accents to create a cozy and textured feel. However, designers also recommend considering the practicality of bouclé for high-traffic areas or households with kids and pets.

Opinions are divided on bold kitchen colors. Some designers believe that bold colors in kitchens can add visual interest and create a vibrant space. They suggest using bold paint, wallpaper, or colorful stones to inject personality into the kitchen. However, others caution against using black and dark blue, as these colors may not be appetizing. Instead, they recommend using colors that mirror fresh ingredients and create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
