Seeing Green

Additionally, shades of green in home decor including paint and fabrics will be big in 2022. In fact, paint giant Benjamin Moore selected October Mist 1495 as its Color of the Year 2022 and describes the color as a “gently shaded sage that quietly anchors a space, while encouraging individual expression through color.” Online store Etsy saw a sharp increase in searches for emerald green home decor and even named it as their Color of the Year 2022. Neutral, soft shades of green provide a sense of calm to a home. More than ever people are seeking out joy, and nothing delivers more effortlessly as flowers, color, and pattern. 

Black Accents

Black accents will see a rise in popularity. Known for being sleek and modern-looking, the coveted color adds a pop of contrast to any space. Using black cabinet hardware and sink faucets in bathroom and kitchen spaces can provide edge and depth creating visual interest in these highly trafficked rooms. Another perk of black? It black matches many other colors, especially when paired with whites, grays, greens, and amber hues. If you are ready to create an impact, add a black accent to tie a scheme together beautifully. When you add black accents to a room, you create impact. You need little to create a dramatic result – but it can ground a room and tie a scheme together beautifully.

Versatile Spaces

The pandemic has influenced many design trends in 2022. One that likely won’t go away is the need for rooms to serve multiple purposes. Maximizing functionality and practicality has become a top priority as working-from-home is more common than ever. However, form doesn’t have to be sacrificed for the sake of function.
